no points for

• Squadron Citations earned: all squadrons and ships must get into the competition with equal conditions, and citations might be easier for one squadron to get than for another.
• FCHG/CR Rank gains points: these rank gains can be more easily achieved by one pilot than by the other, and pilots must enter the competition with equal conditions to award points.
• IWATS/IU Courses taken, because of the current EH system not allowing the retaking of tests.
• Mission Creation: because Mission creation takes too long to be placed in a month long competition, and it would be difficult to see results.
