SOAP 108 has the quarter and semi finals up there now, they are pretty good.
WE should have ours up by Friday? maybe Saturday... but those are higher quality than the ones on SOAP.

The lower bar has a "tab" on the top that indicates the match number. The number on the right of the tab indicates how many seconds are left in that portion of the match. It starts at 15 for automode and counts down to zero, when telemode starts it goes to 120 and counts down from there.

The Final Score screen reflects what went into the database for that match. It also says what match the score is for. If the scores on the bar and the Final screen are different, then check the match numbers, they should be different as well. Be sure to include the effects of any penalties as these are not included in the scoring bar but are in the Final Score.

It makes perfect sense once you understand it all.

I'm not sure if we are talking about the same thing. But I was talking about the final-score screen's sum score. The screen listed ring scores and bonus scores then have 2 large number at the bottom to indicate the sum. The sum wasn't what the list add up to be.

The two large numbers at the bottom with the array of dots in between are the part of the Final Score screen you should ignore. That is the "lower bar" and is used during a match to display the rack score real time. This score does not include bonuses or penalties. But it is the most visually prominent, so people often topok it to be the "real" score.

Also if the guy at the scoring table is not paying attention then it might not be displaying the rack score for the match that is being displayed at the top in the Final Score screen. It was easy to advance the lower bar to the next match or to have it up while trying to correct a score from a previous match (fumble fingered refs ). This would result in results from two different matches being displayed simultaneously. The imporant screen is the Final Match Score screen. That is the one that has the official score for the match.

There obviously needs to be some human engineering on this part of the scoring system. The bright side is that no matter what, we will need a new scoring display next year. The scoring and field management system were so much more reliable than last year that I will gladly put up with a few minor complaints this year. Next year when 4FX has more time to focus on "peripheral" issues things should be better yet.

I put those up. I have more it just took me while to parse and just as long to upload them to SOAP. Some are being stubborn - but they'll get there. I have most of Saturday's matches parsed, but I'm stuck at school for Open House (it is my job afterall) and can't get back to it until tonight.

Hang in there, we'll get them up.

I've never dealt with SOAP before,
would they mind if we put up matches that were not from the big screen?
Because our scouting team is almost done with the matches they video taped, and I personally like the field overview that they did more then the big screen...
it is easier to see everything that is going on

We are now uploading our own movies on our website, found here. The finals are almost all up, and the quarter-finals are next. Also, we will add qualification matches 52, 55 and 60. Hope these videos are helpful, because I haven't seen the finals anywhere else!
