Hi Colin,
When scoring a series with flights you use “number of boats in the biggest start + N” for DNF etc. But
when merging diffrerent series with I would like to have it "number of
boats in the biggest start in this race
Possible?

Hi Anders, yess I add it to the next version. Apologies for not replying earlier - just busy… and believe it not spent all weekend sailing!

Hi Anders & other flights gurus 
Just to let you know I am in the middle of testing v1.93Sat (& writing the Help file) against AddC & Submission 025.
Colin has fixed a lot of the issues in this area so now is the time to test.
Thought you might like to know, to save you or others doing the same thing.
Trying to get it finished in the next week or so before my busy time starts
Regards
Ralph

Hi Ralph
FYI - have have added code to specify that at least N discards must be in the finals and I have coded the rest of 025. Testing in the next few days. Will post installation file sometime this week.

Thanks Colin
That’s one of my “Actions for Colin”
I have been ‘wrestling’ with how to do Assignments to Finals fleets.
Current options don’t allow for variable numbers, ties go into higher group.
The solution (after using a lot of grey cells) is DON’T use the Flight Assignment tool!
The finals series is scored separately so we need a field to score on.
I have used the seeding tool to populate the Flight column which can then be amended manually if required.
My notes will probably ask for some sort of ‘Select Competitors’ window with a move up/down facility but at least for now, we have a practical solution

Ralph

I trust you have noticed that “Medal Races” on the final day of large regattas using Addendum Q are to be scored in the same file.
I used to do the last race in a separate file which made the last race non discardable.
Now the original file should be used.
After the 10 in the medal race, all others in the fleet (usually Gold) is scored as DNC.
In the medal race OCS RTD RAF etc are all scored by reference to the numbers of boats in the Gold larger fleet.
It puts you last of the 10.
This means there needs to be some systen to have the final race as the decider in the event of a TIE.
In may mean then thea one of the 10+ boats could have it’s tie decided separately?
I could reserch this if you wanted a definate answer
We ised thia at the Princess Sofia Regatta in Palma the other week.

Hi Mike, Confirm the medal race stuff in 1.93 can handle it in the same file. Just tick the box and set N (10 by default). Sailwave breaks ties for the first N as per submission (whatever their result in the last race). Then does normal tie breaking for the rest. However it does do double points for all boats (inc DNC non-medal boats) so that a non medal racer cannot beat a medal racer.

I have
Addendum C which is part of Appendix LE (v 1st Jan 05) and
Appendix Q which covers umpiring the finals
Submission 025 which was approved at the last ISAF meeting
I have now found AddQ (but not sure how AppQ & AddQ differ)
Looking at AddQ & AddC, I cannot see where they refer to
the medals race should be scored in the same file (although this is common sense)
how OCS, RTD etc should be scored (although common sense says 10=)
There is one significant problem I see with AddC & some of the recent regattas is that discards are applicable to the regatta as a whole.
This could mean that there is 1 discard in the Qual series & a 2nd kicks in some time during the finals.
BUT, a boat could have both discards applying to either series.
My personal view is that AddC events should determine the discards for qual & finals separately.
I have advised Colin to build in this facility into SW as I believe that common sense will eventually prevail & AddC will be updated to require separate discards
Do you have any inside knowledge of when AddC is likely to be updated??
WRT non-medal race tiebreaks, for the remainder of the Gold fleet, I will give this some thought.
Might result in some extra coding to force the normal tiebreak rules for 11th place to x
Colin: when you deal with tiebreaks, remember that the tie on the last race only applies to the boats in the medals race.
The current trend is for 10 boats in the medals race but will this always be the case…??

Ralph

Confirm that's how I did it, different logic for first N in medal race.

Confirm can specify N.
NB: WRT discards what've I've done is add somehting that says "at least" N
(definable) discards must come from the finals but I'm wondering is I need
"exactly" N as well...?

Hi Colin
NB: WRT discards what've I've done is add somehting that says "at least" N
(definable) discards must come from the finals but I'm wondering is I need
"exactly" N as well...?<<
Not sure about this one as there is no definitive guidance from ISAF or whoever.
I am trying to second guess what ought to happen but common sense is not always the final solution
Don't know if Mike Butterfield can come up with anything from his contacts.
I think "exactly" is what we want as SIs normally define exactly, based upon x races sailed.
Would the following work??
Enter the profile as say 0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2
(Where races 1-6 are Qual & 7-12 are finals)
A tick box is then available to identify that discards are specific to Qual & Finals.
The only problem with this is if there is adverse weather & the Qual races are x races short.
If this happened, then I suppose we would have to edit the files manually anyway
Unless you can wave a magic wand to tick a box that says 'ignore' unsailed races.......
Do any other SUG members have a view?
PS Looking at the Qingdao regatta in August, it looks as though they are not using Qual & Finals

Thanks Mike
I have
Addendum C which is part of Appendix LE (v 1st Jan 05) and
Appendix Q which covers umpiring the finals
Submission 025 which was approved at the last ISAF meeting
I have now found AddQ (but not sure how AppQ & AddQ differ)
Looking at AddQ & AddC, I cannot see where they refer to
- the medals race should be scored in the same file (although this is common sense)
- how OCS, RTD etc should be scored (although common sense says 10=)
There is one significant problem I see with AddC & some of the recent regattas is that discards are applicable to the regatta as a whole.
This could mean that there is 1 discard in the Qual series & a 2nd kicks in some time during the finals.
BUT, a boat could have both discards applying to either series.
My personal view is that AddC events should determine the discards for qual & finals separately.
I have advised Colin to build in this facility into SW as I believe that common sense will eventually prevail & AddC will be updated to require separate discards
Do you have any inside knowledge of when AddC is likely to be updated??
WRT non-medal race tiebreaks, for the remainder of the Gold fleet, I will give this some thought.
Might result in some extra coding to force the normal tiebreak rules for 11th place to x
Colin: when you deal with tiebreaks, remember that the tie on the last race only applies to the boats in the medals race.
The current trend is for 10 boats in the medals race but will this always be the case…??

Ralph

I trust you have noticed that "Medal Races" on the final day of large regattas using Addendum Q are to be scored in the same file.
I used to do the last race in a separate file which made the last race non discardable.
Now the original file should be used.
After the 10 in the medal race, all others in the fleet (usually Gold) is scored as DNC.
In the medal race OCS RTD RAF etc are all scored by reference to the numbers of boats in the Gold larger fleet.
It puts you last of the 10.
This means there needs to be some systen to have the final race as the decider in the event of a TIE.
In may mean then thea one of the 10+ boats could have it's tie decided separately?
I could reserch this if you wanted a definate answer
We ised thia at the Princess Sofia Regatta in Palma the other week.

Thanks Colin
That’s one of my “Actions for Colin”
I have been 'wrestling' with how to do Assignments to Finals fleets.
Current options don't allow for variable numbers, ties go into higher group.
The solution (after using a lot of grey cells) is DON'T use the Flight Assignment tool!
The finals series is scored separately so we need a field to score on.
I have used the seeding tool to populate the Flight column which can then be amended manually if required.
My notes will probably ask for some sort of 'Select Competitors' window with a move up/down facility but at least for now, we have a practical solution
Regards
Ralph

Hi Ralph
FYI - have have added code to specify that at least N discards must be in the finals and I have coded the rest of 025. Testing in the next few days. Will post installation file sometime this week.

Hi Anders & other flights gurus
Just to let you know I am in the middle of testing v1.93Sat (& writing the Help file) against AddC & Submission 025.
Colin has fixed a lot of the issues in this area so now is the time to test.
Thought you might like to know, to save you or others doing the same thing.
Trying to get it finished in the next week or so before my busy time starts
Regards
Ralph

Hi Colin,
When scoring a series with flights you use "number of boats in the biggest start + N" for DNF etc. But when merging diffrerent series with I would like to have it "number of boats in the biggest start in this race + N".
Possible?
