event? Is it the shear volume of work? lack of volunteer designers? a server limitation of some kind?
I would like to see scenarios run with one life only for the entire event. Reserve pilots would then have two roles to play: 1 - temporary replacements for no shows on the day of the frame.
2- pre-arranged permanent replacements for dead pilots.
Besides, it increases the 'pucker factor'
