Due to to the unusual way of calculating score :

Final score = Total Pts x Countries (per band) x Continents (for all bands)

there is no way to have another contest that can be used. It is also one 
of the reasons why it is not implemented : The Win-Test core - windows, 
and more precisely rate and statistics calculations - relies on having a 
2-factor only Pts x Mults product.

Also, the exchange requests the use of time (?!) that is not a standard 
data - It also requires a special process : Time is currently set when 
you enter the QSO, not when you send the exchange.

Everything above makes it a real challenge to implement, while keeping 
intact the current features of the core.
