After having the last novice class at CRR events I will never support a novice class again. If people do not want to learn or compete in a comp class, then they should run scale. There is nothing wrong with that, people just need to be honest with themselves, entering a novice class is something you do for the first two events. Then you move up. We do not have enough new people at every event to justify a novice class, anyways.
