[NSRCA-discussion] Chapter-1 Perils of judging part-1

[Derek Koopowitz]

No competitor badgered a judge.
 
The NSRCA runs the Nationals and as such the CD can determine who is
qualified to judge (just like any CD can make that determination at a local
contest) - and since we determined that bias was present we decided to not
allow Eric to judge for 2 years.  We aren't banning him from anything - we
just are choosing to not allow him to judge.
 
Words are very powerful and when used incorrectly can lead to people making
the wrong assumptions of what really happened.
 
Again, do not assume that whatever Eric wrote is all true either.

OK...
 
Show me in the NSRCA bylaws the justification for convening the "court of
inquiry" and banning a member from judging.  
 
 
And were is the censure against the competitors who badgered the judge?

I find the timing of this very curious - especially at a time just before
the Nationals.  I would caution anyone that is going to jump into this that
unless you know the full story - please do not comment.  As everyone knows
there are three sides to every story - each parties side and then the truth.
There is a long history of acrimony between Eric and one of the pilots
mentioned and I'm sure that came into play during the event last year.
 
Statements were received from ALL parties involved - Eric Henderson, Dave
Lockhart, Richard Landis, and Dave Guerin and the NSRCA board met last year
(Lamar was President) to go over the statements and to review the judging
analysis that was done.  The board decision was unanimous in that the NSRCA
felt that bias was present and that Eric should be censured by not allowing
him to judge at the Nationals for a determined time period.
