Update ratings for unsailed competitors

Hello

I am trying to create a sailwave template file for the new season.

I downloaded ryapn.cvs from Sailwave’s website and then added to it by hand ratings that were not listed in ryapn.csv.

I informed the system where the rating file was stored in my computer by using Setup- Global Options - Folders.

I also ticked ‘Auto set competitors rating’ by using Setup - Scoring system.

Finally I clicked the Rescore button.

Sailed competitors ratings were update according to the new ryapn.csv (for 2014) but un-sailed competitors ratings remained as last years ratings.

What did I do incorrectly?

Thank you for your help.

Hi Hanako,

Normally it wouldn’t matter if the ratings were or weren’t updated if they didn’t sail.

But may be for the purpose of what you are trying to do - Create a template for the next year. If you have just a single race and make sure that they all sailed and rescore this will update the ratings as I assume you are going to delete the race data anyway.

If you would like me to look into it further if you could email me the file (blw) you are using

Hi John

Thank you very much for your kind reply.
Yes I was trying to create a new template file for our club’s series race by recycling the last race in 2013 which contains all the competitors who came to the club races in the past.

I understood it works by using ‘edit competitor’ in either way:

a) change competitors status from ‘unsailed’ to ‘sailed’ and then rescore; or

b) re-select the boat class and the rating will change automatically.

When I posted my question, I was wondering if there is a way to edit all un-sailed competitors ratings without using ‘edit competitor’ individually…

However there are not so many un-sailed competitors (20+) in the file. I will do it manually. Season is starting soon.

Thank you.
