Different Scores for DNF. attached .blm

Imported from Yahoo

For some reason, I am getting different scores in our Wed Series for a DNF.

We are using the (F-P)+1 High Point for a boats score. Points only awarded for Finishers.

In the first Race you will see 2 boats DNF but have 1 Pt. In the second race a DNF got 0.

I have gone back and unscored the series and cleaned up the individual boats’ scores and re-entered using the Wizard.

I don’t seem to be able to find out why the different scores stay.

Can you find anything?

Hi,

When I look at the DNF code I see that the method being used is "* Points
for place of (the number of starters in the race + N places)* "
which I would not consider using with a high points system as it
does not make sense. I do not understand what is happening here as
I would have expected points equal to the number of starters.
Perhaps Jon when he sees this will have an insight.

If I change the method for DNF to "* Score a fixed number of
points N* " and I set N = 0 and then score I consistently get
O.0 points for DNF.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Huw

Thanks Huw, I just thought it was odd that 2 DNF had different scores.
I have set the DNF to be a Score of 0 and all DNF are now scored the same.

Bit of a question probably for Colin and/or Jon…

Rather than embed the JavaScript in the page using tags can I link to the raw script as a file? By can I, I don’t mean technically (I know the answer to that) - I mean in terms of licencing…

To explain a little more… …The Joomla results importer doesn’t currently support the effects (it only imports content within the tag. That was in part by design - because importing any old code into a database introduces all sorts of potential security vulnerabilities.

So what I am thinking of doing is creating a functionality in Joomla that does a few things -

  • It allows default scripts to be applied (no Race Officer forgetting to select the TableSorter option when there is probably no reason the club doesn’t want it enabled on every event. So the Joomla administrator will effectively inject these in at the Joomla end rather than the publishing end.

  • Allows detection of other scripts that have been added to a specific event and (provided the J! admin has allowed it) - to then use the code. But what I’d like to do is to recognise that say “// name=HighlightWins3” is listed in the script and then insert a file called HighlightWins3.js as a script link from the Joomla page rather than embed the in joomla. From a Joomla perspective its just a cleaner way to do it. So…

From a licencing perspective can I:

  • Copy the .js files from Sailwave into the GPL v2 or later Licenced Joomla Component as separate files? OR

  • Insert the < script src=“http://www.sailwave.com… blah.js” >

Joomla’s extension component will probably want embedded library files to have a // licence = GPL v2 statement in them (or something similar) if they are embedded. Sailwave isn’t GPLv2 compliant but the javascript files could be… …does that make any sense?

Hi Calum, no problem for my scripts; go for it. I guess since the scripts are author based it depends on the author - but there are only 2 I think.

Hi Calum,

Great to see Jon & Colin have no issues over their scripts.

However, do not forget that they rely on another script and I can’t
remember what it has with regards, if anything, to use in the way
you have proposed. It is automatically included if any effects are
utilised. As it is used I suspect that the use you have proposed
will be OK.

Look forward to to using with effects functionality available in

your Joomla component.
Kind regards,
Huw

Hi Huw

Effects are new to me. I saw them being discussed in the early days - was scroll or refresh or some such that I saw mentioned and while I saw the use for big screen stuff I thought it was quite niche.

The Highlight 3 wins - not something that floats my boat but I see its purpose. But the one that creates the menu system (not 100% sure how it will play in a J! article to be honest - but will try) and more importantly the one that lets people sort columns etc appeal A LOT to me. So I’m still working out how they play together.

There is a dependency for some on jQuery. That’s easy - jQuery is openSource. The hardest part will be that some J! sites will have jQuery loaded for other things and loading it twice breaks things. I’ll be able to sort that.

OR is there another dependency I’m not aware of?

Hi Calum,

No problem. JQuery is the only dependency of the effect scripts

written by Jon & Colin. So every thing should be good as it is
already used by Joomla.

FYI - there is a small problem with the sort effect, in that if the

fleet listed first in the table has sailed fewer races than another
fleet listed the following fleets will not have the additional race
columns with sort functionality. There was a recent message on the
SUG about this.

Kind regards,
Huw
