Changing handicap within a Series

Imported from Yahoo
1

Aldenham Sailing Club plans to score its Winter Series on both a Portsmouth Yardstick and personal handicap basis.

I am assuming that if I adopt an "alias & then score by fleet" solution I can get each competitor scored both ways without needing to key in the elapsed times twice - but any hints on this would be welcome...

What I don't know is how (if at all) I can score a 20 race series but with some competitors' personal handicaps changing during the series. (Each competitor's handicap is to be recalculated after 5 new results). Any ideas/work arounds before the Sailwave personal handicaps version is done?

Thanks
James

Hi James,

Yes possible approach is as you say, alias everybody and then put a race specific rating for each competitor in the aliases set of entrants. Should work OK but if not let me know and I'll tweak something.
