Hello, Im have troubles with discards and qualification. I suspect that both issues are being caused by the same thing, DNC’s.
You have to sail in 60% of the races to qualify : s/r=.6 is my formula.
You get 1 discard for every 8 races sailed: s/8 is the formula.
Look at sail number 73 Don S: he only sailed in 4 out of 16 races, he should not have any discards and should not qualify, but SW gives him 2 throwouts and he qualifies.
I have DNC set up as did not come to starting area, did not start, and did not finish. DNC are given an average score.
What am I doing wrong?
File is attached.
Thanks!
Peter
I figured out my qualification issue. I had a bad formula. should have been r*.6.
But my discards still dont work…
