[MKOB] Club only competitions

[Marshall Williams]

 From my perspective, I think even 4 per year is a lot.  I worry that 
having too many would soon tire those that want to enter as they would 
have to brew what was dictated as the style to be judged, and do that 
frequently.  So if  the choices are 4 or 6, I vote 4.
