Thanks Colin. Look forward to testing it. We've looked at several programs and you seem to have developed the best program, keep up the good work. Thanks.

Subject: RE: [sailwave] SCIRA
Date: Wed, 14 Aug 2002 09:04:11 +0100Hi Mark,
I add more "code methods" as required based on personal experience and
messages posted on the SUG. I'll extend the repertoire to include scores
based on the number of finishers. I can't actually remember the answer to
your % question, but if Sailwave can't do it, again, I'll extend the
repertoire. Its fairy easy to add in new code methods. Actually, I must
admit that I didn't initially think scores based on #finishers would be
useful because of the potential for deliberate manipulation by the
sailors...Will do ASAP.
Regards,
Colin J

The Snipe class governing body (SCIRA) has a special one design scoring
system that I have not been able to set up using Sailwave. The problem
relates to the way in which SCIRA handles DNC, DNF, RAF, DSQ, OCS, etc. They
use three bases to calculate from; boats in series, boats starting and boats
finishing. I have tried using the long series scoring system but it does not
work for anything calculated from number of finishers.Sailwave does not keep track of the number of finishers so any calculation
based upon that number can not be made. Assuming that 30 boats enter, 20
boats start and 10 boats finish the Sailwave long series scoring and SCIRA
scoring works as follows.DNF is number of finishers plus 1. SCIRA=11, Sailwave=21
OCS is number of competitors plus 10%. Can I set up Sailwave to score this?
Any help you can provide would be much appreciated.
