Using the Computerized Scoring System

Rallyemasters can use Nick Stefanisko's computerized scoring system to score rallyes, to quickly rescore rallyes based on granted protests, and to generate final results and statistics. If given sufficient notice prior to the event, Nick and Teresa Stefanisko can provide a laptop computer for use with the scoring system.

Before using the computerized scoring system, rallyemasters must create a scoring profile and precheck it carefully. Both the rallyemaster and one other person should precheck the scoring profile. Do this well in advance of the actual rallye.

It is also possible to use the scoring system to generate results and statistics for a rallye that was scored by hand.

The results document lists each team's score and standing, as well as the names of the driver, navigator, and any passengers. The statistics document lists the fraction of teams in each class that recorded each gimmick. These statistics can be helpful for rallyemasters trying to understand how difficult different types of gimmicks are, so they can better calibrate future rallyes.
