Slalom points app

Does anyone know who is behind the slalom points app? The contact email no longer works. I love the app (bankside mental arithmetic no being my strong suit) but I’ve noticed that the algorithm for the inquorate races has not been update to use the current multipliers. It would be great if it could b...

Re: 6.11.1 Ability to hold two races in one day.

I read this motion as having clubs having the option to run a two races in one day, there is no suggestion that is it compulsory. Therefore if an organiser thought it was too difficult at their event/course they wouldn’t do it. Similarly as they are separate events, paddlers could decide whether to ...

Re: Too few indispensible volunteers

Hi Jim, You have made a very valuable point. One of the challenges I find with the technical side is that it’s hard to learn/remember how to do something when there might be a big gap between doing it (especially with Covid) and it feels like the consequences of getting it wrong are quite high. I wo...

Re: Grandtully Div.2 Rules Clarification Request

I’ve scanned the rule book and organisers handbook and found no reference to requirements (or not) to change the course at double events. Only thing in the same ballpark is that the organisers have discretion to change the course for finals/semifinals in super finals and championship formats (race f...

Re: Tweaks for online entries?

I wonder for the Div 4s whether it would be more helpful for those of us who use it, to come up with a step by step guide which we send out when we are advertising our competitions - rather than change the whole system? The online entries for Div 4s is fab and I wouldn’t want to loose it!! Happy to ...

Re: Simply Slalom

Stupid question - how do I get the newer version of Simply slalom (it just comes loaded on the laptop that gets passed on)?

PS - thanks for helping me out - you might be able to sense the mildly building stress levels ;)

Re: Simply Slalom

Just looked and I can’t change them, but can delete them and put them on as postal entries (will still be quicker than doing the whole thing manually!)

Not sure - The one that come on the laptop I’ve been given is 19.0.7.0.xls it’s definitely the 2029 version (as it’s a bit different).

Re: Simply Slalom

I suspect it is our use of the “Sponsor” field -as I can export our last year sept event into the new Simply Slalom, which didn’t use it.

Simply Slalom

Has anyone had the error message “unable to process imported file”

The file has some incorrect data in one or more fields. Please re-export the Simply Slalom file from slalomentriesonline.

I’ve tried that and it’s not worked. Any ideas of a work around?
