High Point Scoring

All

i have been working on the following

Points

  1. For each boat completing the course 1 pt

  2. For each boat beaten 1 point

  3. Bonus 4 for 1st, 2 for 2nd, 1 for 3rd

I have the old scoring file from low point and have changed it to high point.

I have high point with formula 2*f-p which seems to deal with 1 and 2. Testing gives the correct score.

i set up scoring codes for 1 2 and 3 with the bonus points

When scoring this does not come up in scored points with the correct score.

Any ideas.

This is the Laser Masters system:

> Having setup the event as you would normally take the following

actions to setup the handicap. Add four new Scoring Codes as
follows:
> · APP (Apprentice)
> · MST (Master)
> · GM (Grand Master)
> · GGM (Great Grand Master).
> These codes will be used to apply the handicap to each
competitor. Each scoring code should be “Scored a fixed number of
Points” per race, APP 3 points, MST 2 points, GM 1 points, and GGM 0
points. These codes will need to be modified after each race to
reflect the series handicap, race handicap multiplied by the number
of races that count in a boats series total. An Apprentice who has
sailed six races and has one discard would have a handicap of 15
points (3 points x 5 races).
> Add an extra race and change the race name to “Handicap” or
“H’cap”. This race will be used to hold each boat’s series handicap.
Edit the start of the “Handicap” race, Edit+Edit Start. In the Edit
Race window check “This race is not discardable”.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

>Rather than go back and edit each handicap for the number of

races sailed, Leave the handicaps alone and simply use race
weighting to multiply the handicap X the number of races. In the
example above, you would simply give the race a weight of 5. This
makes it a little easier when posting daily results over several
days.

This would have to be modified for a high point system, change

handicap to bonus.
