Winscore MUST see a gps trace to each and every turnpoint or turn area and
a
finish. IF Winscore does NOT see this trace, then it gives you a landout.
On A MAT, Winscore must see this trace between turnpoints claimed or you

will get a
landout. Winscore checks flight traces and turnpoints/ turn areas. Like

it.....

I have watched this thead with interest, and really wanted to keep out of
it, but this post forced me to jump in.

In your post you repeatedly say what Winscore can and can't do and what
Winscore requires of a flight trace. Winscore is one tool used by a scorer
to see if a US contest flight conforms to the published US rules. "Winscore
will land you out" if the rules specify a landout in such a situation.
"Winscore checks" was is required to be checked by the US rules. Any
deviation in Winscore's behavior from the US rules should be immediately
reported to me as a program problem.

And when, inevitably, Winscore does make an error scoring a flight, it gives
the scorer the tools to override and correct the analysis based on the
scorer and CD's judment.
