RE: [RC] another proposal - Bob MorrisJim: Please read the proposal once more. It states ....? 1)Those who are permitted to continue for placing, and ? 2) Those who are permitted to continue for completion. At every vet check, in order to continue to compete for a placing, your horse must recover to pulse parameters within 15 minutes. If your horse recovers after 15 minutes but before 30 minutes you may continue for completion only. If it takes longer than 30 minutes for your horse to recover, your horse will be eliminated from the competition entirely. At the finish, your horse must recover within 15 minutes in order to get a placing. Between 15 and 30 minutes, your horse is eligible for completion only and longer than 30 minutes and your horse will be eliminated from the competition If you exceed the 15 minutes then you get completion only. COMPLETION ONLY!! No points, mileage only. This excludes you from any points awards for that ride. No weight division points. COMPLETION ONLY!!! You state <<<Matthew's proposal does not apply to weight divisions>>> Please indicate where this is stated.

You say: "Keep in mind that if you are not in the Top Ten, then AERC points are the same, whether you are 11th or 101st. " On the contrary, all of the Regional points awards are based upon weight division points, not overall points. If a rider is concerned about Regional awards, then overall Top Ten is arbitrary. Guess I'm confused. As I understand it, Matthew's proposal does not apply to weight divisions. You could race all you want within your weight division. Are you saying that being say "1st Lighweight" and 5th place overall at a ride would me more regional points than being "1st Lightweight" and 11th place overall? That was not the way I understood that it worked. Here's my proposal: (and I really mean this) Let's completely abolish the current point system. Let's get rid of the points system. Let each day, each ride/race, be the only determining factor for how we ride and what we ask of our horses. Steph I would agree to that.....but IMHO, too "radical" a change to get that through the BoD. You and I would never live to see it. I assume your proposal would not eliminate the awards associted with the "many miles, one horse" awards....just the points awards.
