is really the ONLY issue at hand. Proper seeding becomes vital to both
formats. In the Matrix system, two “weaker” (no bashing, just being honest)
groups will normalize very high to one another on the day they fly against
each other knocking out some of the pilots from the other groups who
are forced to always normalize against one of the stronger pilots (in this
years case that was Arch and Frak). </span><o:p></o:p></p>

4 mini contests does a better job with the math (your at least not trying to
force normalization with equal exposure) but in contrast, the idea of taking
the top 2 or 3 from each group assumes that one group won’t have 4 of the
best pilots. Not the best assumption given the inconsistent attendance
that many have at the nats. No way to seed beyond the top 3-4 people
that we have experience with.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

Glen not being there that group became an "easy" group and the
normalized scores reflected that relative to the other groups. I'm not
trying to diminish anyone's flying efforts here but I think the ED should
adjust the flying groups based on attendance if necessary in order to level

Budd had a good suggestion in running 4 mini-contests for 6 rounds where each
pilot would fly against their group for 6 straight rounds and then the top 3
from each group would fly in the finals. I'm leaning toward this
because the current format does not work. We also need to do something
about FAI - because there isn't equal exposure there either.<o:p></o:p></p>

No one has addressed the equal exposure to judges issues for the current<br>
format yet and Mike's proposal does not correct that situation for Masters.<br>
I had one person suggest to me that if we continue to use the Matrix system<br>
that we take the top 3 pilots from each "Group" to a 3 round
finals. At<br>
least then we have equal judging exposure and more or less equal weather<br>
exposure per round.<br>

That is a possibility also. AMA is thinking about returning the NATS to
a 2<br>
week all-events NATS like used to be done. If all events are together,
HQ<br>
can put all costs into one effort. If they are all split up, Each group<br>
would have more costs to deal with due to the fact that HQ can't send a<br>
group of people to every site.<br>

Why not allow the SIGS to do their own thing? IMAC
and NSRCA do not<br>
need to share a site. The LSF can find a site for the soaring NATS. Pylon<br>
knows what venues work for them and so on. FF can do their own thing as<br>
well. Why tie soaring and FF together and so on??<br>

Yes, it is just difficult to tell if it is
actually feasible. The<br>
problem is that it requires a large site for Pattern/Pylon/IMAC and will<br>
require another large site for Soaring/Outdoor FF. It may be very
difficult<br>
to actually find places that can handle this group.<br>
