RE: Future of the Scalemasters?
Thank you all. I can now see there are really others that feel as I have for several years,not months but years. i too have a few ideas to pass on. Thanks to Mitch Baker by the way the Masters is still alive. It seems as though I was treading on thin ice at times in the past. As some know I was assigned the responsibility of being an advisor by Mr. harris Lee many years ago. Now let me make it clear I have much respect for our past and present leaders in the work that they have done. However I also feel that some have simply not advanced us with the times. One would think that the low numbers of members would signal something to these leaders.
It seems as though the writings such as rules etc are well done But! out of touch with todays competitor and serves to scare the devil out of those that may wish to try.
Judges. Thats always a joyful subject in todays scale world. Remember at one time we had several other scale meets being held from which we could get judges from. I feel we need to provide our judges a much simpler,fairer and faster way to judge. On top of that we add classes in a program that does not equally fit all the catergories in scoring. The entire procedure need to be easier for everyone. The following will suggest some very different ideas. In closing of this section I will say that unless things change and I mean real change we just may continue to whip this horse until it falls and by all comments it cannot be far off.
