SSA HANDICAP LIST

I went to the SSA site just now to get the current list of handicaps for our
up-coming Fall Round Up next weekend.
All of the various forms of handicaps have the 2003 date on them. Am I
confused or have I missed a year somewhere?
I thought for certain we were well into 2004.
Can someone please shed some light on this situation?

No handicap list was produced for 2004. At the Sports Class Nationals,
we had to use the 2003 list and, in a couple of instances, "negotiate"
handicaps for newer models that weren't on it. Fortunately for me as
CD, we had Hank Nixon, a member of the Rules Committee, on the scene.
He knew what to do (or if he didn't, at least he knew enough to speak
authoritatively).

Help. I went to the website to get some handicap info and discovered that
the list is VERY WELL hidden. I didn't see a link to it anywhere. Where in
webspace is it tucked away?

Since the site was revamped, I cannot log-in at all. Also, I find no
email address listed for help. Any ideas? The old site wasn't the
greatest, but at least I knew where everything was and I could get to
it. Now,.....?

The old site is still there
http://www.ssa.org/contests/ContestRanking.asp is still up and links to
http://acro.harvard.edu/SOARING/JL/PRL which has the most current rankings,
but not yet updated w/results of this summer's contests.

If you click on the yellow "help/more options" label directly under the
password box, you will be taken to a page explaining how to log in, and
what to do if you can't.

Use it a few times - you'll get the hang of it, just like you did the
old one.

Eric,
Thanks, but I have already tried that. It goes to a copy of the old
help page, the only problem is that it does not work. I guess I'll
have to wait for a day when I'm off of work so I can telephone the
office as no email or online help is listed.

Thermals,
Terrill

Try this-- http://www.ssa.org/contests/ContestRanking.asp
it has a link to http://acro.harvard.edu/SOARING/JL/PRL which has the 2003/4
ranking lists. I don't think 2005 exists yet.

Is this what you tried?

--------
Membership Number: Use your membership number as shown on your
membership ID card. Keep in mind the Membership Number field allows for
only six (6) digits. If you are using the membership number found in the
address portion of your SOARING magazine, DO NOT enter the preceding zeros.

Password: Use the first letter of your last name (lower case), followed
by your member number. For example, John Smith's membership number is
123456 so his password would be s123456.

If you have questions regarding the login, please contact the SSA office
at (505) 392-1177 during the office hours of 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM (MST).
-------

The yellow link to the Help page lets me log in, but there is problem:
the page is labeled a "test" page in the URL, and doesn't connect to the
"real" pages, but seems to duplicate them. If I remove "test" from the
URL, it does take me to a real page.

I've sent an email about this bad link to the SSA office
), and also suggested the email address be prominently
displayed with the rest of the contact info instead just available from
the scrolling pictures.
