Some helpful guidelines:
1. Use common sense. Maybe consider allowing one line break per day after the first round as long as there is no evidence of an intentional attempt to break the line.
2. Until the strength of all the winch lines has been determined at the beginning of the contest, allow non-intentional line breaks in the first round to be relaunched.
3. It should be very evident if there is an intentional attempt to break the line. Look for NO tapping of the winch pedal, or a stalled winch. If any of these conditions are met, NO relaunch!
4. If slots are available in subsequent flight groups for the same round, bump the pilot to the next flight group for a relaunch. With seeded man on man, this would be a tougher flight group.
5. If there is not an open slot in the next flight group, or if it is the last flight group in a round, have a spare winch ready for IMMEDIATE relaunch. As an added incentive, reserve the weakest winch with the weakest winch line for this spare winch!
6. If there is more than one line break in a flight group, relaunch the entire group.
