Hi Colin:

I like the forum format, keeps the dialogue online for all to see and follow
at their own pace.
What I don't like about forums is that I forget to check them out
periodically.

E mails are ok, but sometimes I don't check my e mails every day, when I do
they've piled up to a very annoying amount.

Subject: Re: Scoring - Average points

We award average points which exclude DNCs but include all other results -
average points are not allowed for the last race of the series. This seems
to work well except when an unfortunate competitor has more than one duty in
a series.

We do average of the races sailed since in my opinion they have turned
up on the day and therefore could have sailed and an average of the races
they sailed reflects their possible result more acurately.

Subject: RE: Scoring - Average points

1.5 points has advantages; it means you get a good score for missing the
race and also it doesn't mess up the total points as somebody else pointed
out - i.e. you don't know your final score until the end of the series if
you use averages unless you use the method that is average races before your
OOD duty; which if at the start of the series and you started badly is not
that fair either perhaps. NB: Do you mean *exclude* DNC as I think all
responses indicated?

my Club gives the Duty (both OOD and Rescue) 1 point, but they may not do
more than one duty per series, unless due to someone failing to show up,
there is no racing unless they do a second duty. We found it the only way to
get entrants to take their turn.

I also like the e-mail format, it is more focussed and less open to vacuous
comment and trivia than a less attributable forum.
I have been a mostly passive observer of the discussion and development over
the past year, but have been very impressed with the obviously high degree
of
knowledge and co-operation of the Sailwave user community.
I have not observed or detected any of the less helpful comment seen in most
other open UG's.
If any one is feeling 'swamped' with e-mail, it is easy to set up a Sailwave
only e-mail address, most isps allow multiple e-mail accounts.
My vote would be to keep it as is (and also keep Colin as a much valued
member of the user group)

Andy

No, when I scored a series and gave a sailor RDGa it included the DNC points
allocated in earlier races. When I calculated the average by hand (using
only
sailed races) he scored 9.5 point less.

John,
that is also our central problem (getting some people to do their duty),
but
opportunists seem to be able to work the system to their advantage, if we
give them average points every time they volunteer for duty.- i.e. score
well
in first couple of races and then don't race, can win with Ave. points-hence
the debate.
regards,
Andy
ps. thanks for all of your inputs, it has been very helpful to establish a
'custom and practice' view to incorporate into our SIs.

Subject: RE: Scoring - Average points

Hi Andy,

I would create a new code called OOD (I think Sailwave generates one by
default actually) and set it's "method" to "Average all except DNC". RDGa
serves a specific purpose of averaging including DNC as recommended (but not
forced) by RRS 2001-2004. i.e. you may need RDGa as it stands so use
another code for OOD/Rescue-duty.

Thanks for your comments on the forums.

Regards,
Colin

Subject: RE: Forums

Personally, I'd vote to keep the email format as it doesn't mean a separate
action to obtain the information. Most email systems allow rules so you can
redirect the [sailwave] messages to their own folder. Forums also require
you to be online, and not everyone has a permanently on connection or even a
"free" one. Forums usually require a higher computer skill level than email.
I also think you'd probably loose the immediacy of responses. Email also
allows me to maintain my own archive of the information.

Best regards - John.

I have had a number of private emails saying the same as Rob and

ebecca -

essentially if you don't log in for a while you get blatted with too many
emails that are deleted rather than read... Simon, (or anybody else) -

how

would you feel if we removed the yahoo group and moved to the Sailwave
forums... Ikonboard has some nice features like tracking particular

topics

of interest and only showing new messages etc etc, so it may be a bit

easier

to personally manage. There is no advertising on this board as it's

hosted

on the Sailwave web site. What it will need is some volunteers to be
moderators at some stage.

Regards,
Colin

I agree with Rebecca Blanco, the volume of emails is becoming too large

and

so I'd vote for the forum which looks promising.
