Scorekeeper's Notes: How are the codes used in scoring?

Here are some typical codes that we use from time to time.

DNF scoring: Did not Finish

The boat will be scored points equal to the number of finishers plus one.

DSQ scoring: Disqualified

Same as DNF

DNS Scoring: Reported to the starting area; but, Did not Start

The boat will be scored points equal to the number of starters plus one.

DNC Scoring: Boat did not report to the starting area and did not start

The boat will be scored points equal to the number of boats in series plus one.


For example: 

3 boats (A,B,C) finish the race in that order.

Boat D starts then retires. (ran out of beer)

Boat E failed to finish within the time limit. (wind fell off)

Boat F was disqualified (missed a mark.)

Boat G reported to the starting area but retired before the start. (forgot beer)

Boat H & I were absent. (on vacation in Hawaii)

 

Results: (9 boats registered for series.)

Boat A 1.0 points

Boat B 2.0 points

Boat C 3.0 points

Boat D DNF 4.0 points

Boat E DNF 4.0 points

Boat F DSQ 4.0 points

Boat G DNS 7.0 points

Boat H DNC 10.0 points

Boat I  DNC 10.0 points
