The ARRL doesn't care! According to them, "Field Day is not a contest; no certificates are awarded" and "ARRL Field Day is not a fully adjudicated contest, which explains much of its popularity"

So, no awards, no disqualifications. Just posting your scores on the wall with nothing to back it up.

In other words, it's one giant fish story. The biggest liar wins.

Guys, this seems simple to fix. The arrl gets the logs of everyone. How hard is it to build a table of the sat contacts and check who gets more than the allowed one contact?
