Possible Format Change

This year I'm looking at a more straight forward plotting format that will be easier but still fun. Contestants will get a map with a number of "points" on it. For each point there is a tulip indicating direction of entry and exit from the intersection (point). Contestants then plot the shortest distance between points that meet the entry and exit criteria.
I'm still deciding how to time and score but am leaning toward a form of jogularity on a separate timing schedule. Navigators will be busy following maps so calculating would be difficult for all but the most proficient or those with computers. The jogularity takes care of that and allows me to use experience rather than equipment for classification.
