[NSRCA-discussion] Amnesty idea

[Ryan Smith]

Agreed. Peer pressure at contests I think is enough to take care of someone
that is sandbagging.

I thought you can do this already.  IMO we should eliminate the whole
points/advancement system and let all flyers fly the class they feel most
comfortable with.

At the Peoria contest this weekend we had the pleasure of having John Gayer
from New Mexico attend and fly with us.

 We got into a discussion about ideas to grow the sport.

 One I brought up and it's nothing new is a one time only Amnesty period.

 It would allow any flier who has been a consistent low placer in their
class the ability to drop down at the end of a season.

 It seems clear to me that this really needs to happen and the residual
benefit from such a program could very well help to get some guys back into
the sport.

 What would it take to get such a program instituted? 

 What are the barriers that would stop this from being put into the rules?

 Is there a potential downside to this that would make it worse than what we
have now?
