What is the point of entering a contest if you do not want or try to
win. The fun develops from that desire and ambition. If we end up
losing and can only have fun if we won, then we do not know the true
meaning of competition.

I think that's what is wrong with so many current contests with the
emphasis on win, win, win and not enough emphasis on fun. Why not
back off a little and put some fun back. Fly events that don't
require a moldie. Maybe a round of three-for-fifteen and a few rounds
of two minute precision. That's how I learned to land on the spot on
time over 30 years ago and it can be done with an Oly II or Gentle
Lady. And be sure to have a Novice class with best trophies for
them. I have been flying contests on one type or another since 1950
and I don't really care for another trophy unless it is for a really
important contest. For the rest, just announce my name if I place.
Of course I don't have to worry about that very often any more. :-)
