[PaQSO] bonus points and records?

[Michael Coslo]

re. bonus station effect on records..

There likely has been a small effect, although since we went to the multiple station bonus stations, we haven’t seen a wholesale falling of old records. 

It is indeed difficult to pin scoring to records - as bizzare as that sounds. Over the years, PQP has had a lot of different scoring schemes. 

I’m not certain of how many party records will fall this year - its usually a handful every year - but I suspect that a lot of people will beat their previous personal best.
