If so, veeerrrrryyyy cool!
Currently, there is unfortunately not a plan to make this data updated live during the events, due to a lack of ability for a live internet connection. Also, the system is currently running on my home system's cable connection, and since historically my system has been the one running the code at the event sites, the IP would not be accurate. However, if a way is found to get at least a phone line connection at each event site, I can set up a system which would push the data back to a server box. The current 'Live' indication was more of an indicator that the system is directly tied to the scoring database, rather than static pages generated at the push of a button. However, if there is a demand, I can make this system available via a WiFi network at most, if not all event sites.
