Title: Scoring for US Scale Masters
Post by: bwboland on Sun, 10/16/11, 08:55 PM
Hello US Scale Master members,

2012 is upon us. The one topic from last year 2011 that were brought up over and over again was the scoring methods used today. As all of you know there have been very few changes in the last 20 years if any.

I would like to us this forum to open the floor to ideas both from the management as well as you. Remember the membership of the US Scale Masters will be the ones driving change the BOD will help make the mass wished happen.

Topic for starters:
•   Scoring normalization
•   K-Factors
•   Maneuvers
These are a few of the item talked about. Please chime in and share you views on these topic and any others you feel fitting.

Best regards,

Bernie Boland

Hello US Scale Master members and friends,

Scoring update 6/2012, the USSMA BOD and my advisors team have agreed that scoring normalization will be used at the 2012 championship event in Rosewood Indiana this September. This is the first large step into the future improvements of the USSMA. The final scoring software will be released prior to the Finals and will be used for all future events.

Please email me with any questions and or comments on this news.

Best regards,

Bernie Boland
