true, but nothing to do with the scores being posted either AFAIK.
apparently, getting the scores on the web site happens due to the 'paid' efforts on staff at the SSA office. given the SSA financials, no 'overtime' is likely authorized. Frank "f.blair" wrote in message news:JofIc.35077$WX.195@attbi_s51... The postings that Charlie makes to the SSA site are a 'paid' entry, it is not part of a 'volunteers' efforts. When he is not at the contest, then the effort is not made to add comments to the site. The RAS postings were great to read even if they do not appear on the SSA site. Fred Blair "F.L. Whiteley" wrote in message ... That assumes the scorer reads RAS. Like cucurachas, there may be 100 lurking for each seen, but RAS doesn't reach more than an interested segment within the SSA, perhaps 10% tops, even with relays. I can't identify any activity by Bill Ruehle, Region 9 scorer and CD, in RAS, ever. He may know nothing of RAS. The SSA newgroups may be more accessible though. There could be some word wrap issues though, depending on format selected. He has made at least two of his gliders available to Dick Johnson for testing though, so he's definitely a soaring contributor. I don't seen any postings by the contest managers either. I thought they posted here up to a few years ago, but I can't find anything, so maybe it was something else entirely. I think the scorer probably e-mailed the results to the SSA office and that we'll seem them Monday AM. This was probably the accepted procedure and then he headed a few hundred miles home like everyone else. FWIW, I've introduced nearly 1000 clients to the USENET as a resource for their business, hobby, or special interest. If 5% actually use it, I'd be amazed. Frank Whiteley "Neal Pfeiffer" wrote in message m... While there may be problems to remote post into the existing website structure, Tom Kelly was very effective in getting much of the word out through this forum. We all anticpate improvements to the site that will make thorough reports readily available. In the meantime, would it be possible for the contest scorer to cut and paste the results into a message on this forum? There could even be a simple note added to the SSA site to look here for the latest until the new full-featured site is up and running.

I was curious so went to Hobbs and copied scores from the Score Shack window. I probably made mistakes, sorry. |
