Using the Correct Rating

Hi, have just been landed with the job of scoring the winter series.
However, have to handicap the sailors! After the first 3 races they
are averaged but if not all have sailed 3 races, have to do this by
hand. Does anyone know the formula I have to use or is there a rating
that will calc for me.

Please HELLLPPP!!!!

We have similar problems and use the "ratings needed to Win" function and print the results of the first three races in a series showning the ratings needed to win and then transfer them to an excel spreedsheet for averaging then alter the results accordingly. If you would like a copy of the spreed sheet email me direct and I will send it as an attachment.

What is averaged? the BCR (back calculated rating?) (what was Rwin in
Sailwave). If so, thing is something I can add to the fledgling
AssignRatings tool.
