Hello,
Welcome to the AthleticLIVE Timer Update, the newsletter that keeps you up to date on
AthleticLIVE features and explains how you can include them in your meets. You've been
added to this newsletter because you have created at least one meet on AthleticLIVE.
This first edition will outline a few Cross Country components we've recently added.
Future emails will be smaller and only illuminate one or two new features.
As always, if you have any questions or feedback, please contact me at
ben@athletic.net.
Good luck with your meets this week!

Cross Country Compiled LIF Scoreboard
|
If you do splits in Cross Country or have over 350 runners in a race, please
try our new LIF scoreboard. You get the following benefits:
-
Edit splits at any time, and they'll appear on the live scoreboard, even if
you're on split 4 and you edited something at split 1.
-
View a compiled grid of split times and team scores in addition to seeing a
list of times and scores at each split.

Show final team scores on the XC Scoreboard
|
Until now, cross country team scores have taken incomplete teams into account
unless you
explicitly excluded
teams per-event in the admin. While this keeps the
scoreboard truly real-time, it may not be the best for championship meets. When
you enable final team scores on the live scoreboard, no team scores will appear
until the correct number of scorers have crossed the line. For example, the
first team will have 15 points until the next team has all of their scorers
finish.
For championship meets, either use final team scores or exclude incomplete teams
before the race starts. The latter is best as you don't have to wait until all
scorers cross the line, but you have to know what the incomplete teams are
beforehand. If you don't know, check "Show only final scores on the live
scoreboard?" to activate this functionality.

If you have ResulTV, you can display finish and split cross country scores with
AthleticLIVE.

Override scoring settings per event
|
At most cross country meets, all events have 5 scorers and 2 displacers and use
either the NFHS or NCAA tiebreaker. But what if you are doing a meet that has
both college and high school races? Or, what if one event has 5 scorers and
another event as 4 scorers? Now, if you upload your events prior to the meet,
you can override scoring settings per-event.

Upload final results from RunScore or from any meet management system using
AthleticLIVE CSV format
|
If you have RunScore, you can upload final results to AthleticLIVE.
If you have another meet management system that we don't yet support,
you can always upload final results using Athletic.net CSV format.
