How to enter an Adjusted Score?
« on: December 05, 2017, 10:42:34 »
We had a hesitation last night, and the director issued an adjusted score: 50% of 5Cx-2 and 50% of 4C-1.  How should we enter that into the handset or the BridgePal PC?

Is there an online manual which answers this sort of question about the scoring software?

You cannot enter adjustments on BridgePal unit. Enter no play and then enter an adjusted score in BridgeScore.

BridgeScore has a standard Widows Help. Click on Help on the front screen or on the question icon on any other screen.

In your case - enter keyword 'adjustments' under the Index tab.

Hi Mirna, Is there any prospect of a 'Director Function' being added to allow setting an adjusted score of 50/50% or 60/40% as this has been requested by the Directors at our club? We had been leaving hands as Not Played but one of our members has recently been through training to become a Director and was told that he should always make a judgement and allocate an adjusted score. There has also been an article in the Jan 2019 issue of Bridge magazine to the same effect. We don't have non-playing Directors so we either have to make these adjustments at the end of play or someone has to try to ignore the played scores when using the BridgeScore 'Enter Scores' option, neither of which is ideal. If the 'Director Function' cannot easily be added an alternative would be the ability to enter a score at the laptop without seeing all the other scores, e.g. by entering Board number and N/S pair then showing just that one result for editing.  Thanks.

Hi Peter,

Yes, we intend to provide a director function to enter an adjusted score on a phone/tablet. I can't give you a date for this yet but it's high on the priority list.

Hi Peter, I would just like to add that the function will be implemented on the director's menu where the other scores are not visible.

Thanks John & Mirna,

I'll feed back to our Director's that you have this in hand. They know (because I constantly remind them) that you do all this work for free and produce new features, refinements and bug fixes at an amazing rate.
