With that said, a progressive type bonus is always cool. Like paired towns, Warren, MA (1 pt)then Warrren, ME (2pt), would be worth double of the first one and then Warren CT would be 4pt. Requirment would be that the State must be in the picture. Easy way to do that is allow Post Offices back in, but the sign must be a permanent sign and not a piece of paper.

Some thoughts.

I really did piss poor this year.

I just barely won cotton this year. Hope that next year I can get out to do more rally work and not have to buy that silly Paper so many danged breakfasts!

I like your idea of the paired towns.....it just works better for those with a lot of states close. I live in the Milwaukee WI area and HATE riding in Illinois. The next closest state in a 3+ hour ride away. If someone lives in Texas that could easily double.

I truly think the only fair way for extra points is a silly hat. But then again, any hat looks silly on me! So, that would be an unfair advantage!

I am game with anything FWIW!
