Propagate points in combined races

Hello Sailwave list...

Please, any help or suggestions with the following :

When you combine several races in one overall time any retirement code
in any of the races is propagated.

Is it possible to create an overall result in low-points and that a
retirement in any race propagates a dnc/dns score (# of boats+1) ?

Purpose is that a participant can skip one or more races but can
still compete in the overall result.

I'm hoping to to use Sailwave in the upcoming 'Dutch Classic Yacht
Regatta' in the Netherlands this summer.
Six fleets of more than 150 all different boats will compete in
several races during four days for class-, combined- and overall-prizes.

Thanks in advance, cu,
Regards,
René den Hertog,
Netherlands.

The elapsed accumulation was added for a specific event last year. I'll
tweak it to also meet your specification. Can you email colin@sailwave.com
with your requirements in as much detail as possible; preferable with an
example or two, especially pathological cases.
