There you go; A and B are equal. C is lessferior, having done more biggie meetings, and thus the 'local' and the 'gypsy' are considered equal but favoured over the more glory-hunter-like C. C is still favoured over D for having done considerably more meetings than D. And the purely glory hunter E has to do his fair share of clubbies to stand any chance of getting in to this one. F who can only do 5 a year is still ahead of E. Now that's still not brilliant for F who can't do any more days, but to be brutally fair, you have to favour people who do more days (remember F wouldn't be allowed to do the GP either and like the GP we could always make exceptions for longer serving marshals who have temporarily been unable to make it out recently).

Plus, we give anyone who has done less than ooh say 10 meetings and 3 months 100 points...thus allowing new people to get into the big meetings at the beginning. Of course, to ensure safety, you would have to limit the number of trainees, regardless of number of points, but otherwise....

By jove, I think I've cracked it.
Think thats the best idea so far!
