Hello Goetz,
Thanks for your input and thoughts.
I am unaware of such events in RTTY mode. Except the NCCC sprint which is
primarily a North American focussed event. There is very little like this for
EU and rest of the world.
Maybe we can come up with some bigger and better idea in the future before the
start of 2019.

Subject: [igry] AW: Proposal for IGRY RTTY Weekly Sprint Contest
Hello Scott and all
I dislike the idea just because there are already many such „events“ in
existence.
To promote RTTY I would support a monthly IGRY QSO Party where we (whoever
takes part) just chat with each other. No contest style exchanges.

Betreff: [igry] Proposal for IGRY RTTY Weekly Sprint Contest
Hello Fellow RTTY Enthusiasts,
I would like to propose and request your input to this idea I have.
We have weekly contests in SSB, CW and RTTY (Focussed on NA)
How about we create a weekly contest with year long leaderboards that can
promote RTTY activity outside of a contest weekend, also promote our group
IG-RY.
Here is my idea below.
Please feel free to make some comments and suggestions.
Would be great if we can do something like this.
With some time before the start of 2019 we have time for promotion and to have
logging software modules ready for our participants, also to secure a score
submittal page on 3830.
