I'll give you the relaxation of requiring accurate scoring, but can anyone really have a serious debate about whether or not IRI is the best competition? Look at the applicant list and realize not even all of these really good-to-perennial powerhouse teams will make it in. The conversation starts and ends with known team quality measured against other events. Adding discs will inflate scores, but it won't make the best competition worse.
