[QUOTE="David E, post: 1356612, member: 1013"] Correct, no more "down 1" or "points down" scoring. That was really taking the long way around the barn, anyway. (count up the points down, divide them by 1/2 [I]then [/I]add them to the stage time along with any FTN penalties.) I am leaving my options open on the target(s) but I have found some that I think are pretty cool and in keeping with the premise of this match being a realistic, practical one. I was going to post a link to an example target, but the site won't come up for me. Maybe it will for you. [url]www.letargets.com[/url] Look for "scoring" paper targets, then the TQ-21 style. But to alleviate possible concerns, the "main scoring area" would be similar to the "C" zone or better of an IPSC or IDPA target. Any hit inside the "C" zone or better would add zero time to the stage run. As you can see, it's a fairly generous scoring area, which is why the off center hits cost so much in a time penalty. I realize that there is no added benefit when you perfectly center-punch a target, but this reflects my personal philosophy that a good hit NOW beats the hell out of a perfect hit 1 second later.
