Hi,
I've added a third merge option - to merge in a series as a new race based
on the series positions of the series being merged. This is useful if you
have a long running 'meta' series based on the overall results of N other
series.
For example a grand prix circuit may consist of 10 weekend events each one
being 3 or 4 races. As well as individual event results it is often
required to keep track of an overall series, where each race in this overall
series is based on the series positions of each of the weekend events. This
new facility will handle this. Obviously it's only useful if there is a
common core of competitors.
Will be available in 1.52 which is due for release on 28/3/04.
May be buggy, needs exercising a bit.
Regards,
Colin Jenkins

Wow! And thanks for implementing a needed but unrequested (by me at least) feature. That's exactly the way that our club scores its series - my life just got one step easier.

Sailwave users,
A few weeks ago I had the need to "score in place" several boats that were late finishing a handicap race. But when I tried to enter a place instead of a time, Sailwave complained that I couldn't have both in the same series. I ended up working around by creating some special scoring codes, but I didn't much like that approach.
Any ideas for how I should handle this situation?

How about using a "made up" time that would compute to the position you knew
was correct?

Hi James,
What were your expectations when you wanted to enter the positions into the
handicap race. It could be that times and positions can be successfully
mixed...
If you want to score a boat with a fixed number of points you can do as will
suggested and invent a time, or, score them as having 'this many points'-
there is a code to do that.
Regards,
Colin

I am not sure what "scored in place" means if they haven't finished they
haven't got a place into which they can be scored. Did the protest committee
awarded them a position or do the SI's specify what "scored in place" means?
If so the protest committee decision or the SI's should contain your answer.
Need more information to answer the question, but entering a time that
generates the correct position sounds like a good solution.

Jay,
We have two occaisions when we would attempt to do what you appear to
want to do:
* a boat finishing after the time limit (ie late) will score DNF
* a boat finishing well after the rest of the fleet may be requested
to take their own time when they cross the finish line (so the Race
Director can have a well-earned kip, usually).
Now I get the feeling that you are talking about something else?
Ocean Racing Club of Victoria
http://www.orcv.org.au
I did not want to mix made up times with actual recorded times because we use the Sailwave output for reporting times to the US Sailing Portsmouth committee.

I think the following will work for your situation.
Create a new scoring code.
Click the "Method" tab and name the new scoring code "PES" Position
Established, or pick another TLA (three letter actonym) you like.
On the same "Method" tab select "Set the points by hand when entering the
code".
Click the "Properties" tab and check the options that apply. Would assume
that the code implies the boat came to the starting line, started the race,
finished the race and the race is discardable.
Go to the competitors that you want to give PES to and enter give them a
scoring code of PES with the necessary points.
Thanks
Mark
Your SI's should indicate how many points each competitor is awarded.
