Is there any way of testing this as the Test Club site, or do I have to try it 'live' so to speak

Hi Tim,
Ok, I think I am with it now (hopefully !! - its been a few months since I looked in detail at the submission process).So after adding the player checksums to the JSON text returned in response to the USEBIO submission, I s…

Hi Tim,
Thanks for your reply.Ok, so the Session Id is generated by the EBU's database engine and cannot be defined by the remote Scoring Program - correct?
The Scoring Program can find the Session Id of any Upload it has s…

I think we are talking at cross purposes here, Gordon.
I don't have EBUScore installed on my PC and so I don't know the format in which its Player records are kept, what fields are in each record, what order they are in, how they are sepa…

Ah! That's the answer I was looking for !
Great, thank you.

Thanks, Dibbler(?) for your reply above. My questions really relate to the situation in which the club has little intention of making the participants EBU Members. In fact they relate to a Scoring Program I have written (Bridge Gem) and the quest…

Thanks.
I had assumed that the bottom row 6* etc was not an award, but just a list of the the minimum awards, because the second row up holds the same values as the bottom row.
Is there any reason why the lowest and the next lowes…

Thanks Gordon. I have had a look at what Postman does and think (or should it be hope?) that I now know what to do.
My program is written in C# and runs over .NET on Microsoft PCs, if the EBU Server fails to understand/respond to the Http…

Thanks for your response, Gordon, but at first sight, the apidoc you refer to, and the Chrome extension Postman it refers to, appear assume that a person is going to fill in a 'form' displayed by a Browser (or something similar) by keying in data…

Thanks very much, Gordon

Thanks Gordon, but what I was actually looking for (but did not explain) were movements for Individual Events, particularly the ones from the EBU Movements Handbook.
Could you by any chance send me the .txt file for these? Many thanks.
Yes they would do very nicely. Are the EBUScore text files available online, and if they are could you direct me to the site from which I can download them?
Are they protected by copyright etc or are they free for use by anyone?
I've never used Python, Ruby or Perl, but Javascipt is an option.
If someone provides a tight specification I am willing to code it up (in C# and/or VB) and submit it, via this discussion, for publication wherever 'the authorities' consider it most appropriate. (In my view, would be the EBU's EBU Licensing and …
Thank you Robin, the document was missing the following items of information:-
(a) that the unit award is 6 or 10 Master Points, depending on the number of winners and
(b) that the awards are increased in these unit steps from minimu…What I am looking to understand is the principles which guided the generation of the table on page 49. It will make the implementation of the award of Master Points in a computer program much easier and robust.
Also on a third reading of …
Gordon is it possible/permitted to set up a "Test Club" on the EBU site to which I can log on and test upload of USEBIO results and other functions without mucking up my club (even temporarily)?
I adopted this approach with Bridgewebs ver…
Great ! Thanks Gordon and Malcolm, that is what I wanted.
I'm going to give it a whirl.I might be in touch if/when I run into problems. I've already created many USEBIO files and uploaded them to Bridgewebs - so touch wood, I can g…
Sorry, could you expand on this answer a bit more please.
Are you saying that I can Login as a person and then upload a USEBIO file manually?I was hoping that there is a facility to do this programmatically using a HttpPOST Request…
I wish to return to this topic having seen a result published on Bridgewebs for a BBO Tournament in which an Artificial score was assigned to one Result on one Board. All the Boards were played 11 times, except Board 2, in which 1 result was adju…
Thank you Robin, I'm treating an Assigned Split score (WB 4.1.1.3) in the same way as a Weighted and Split Score with NS getting 100% of one score and EW getting 100% of the other score.
I think this is case 1 above.
I hope this example is not too complex.
Consider a T9 R12 1W Pairs Event (3/4 Howell Movement) with a Missing Pair in Round 1 at Table 5, EW.
11 of the 12 Rounds were played, with Round 11 being skipped; this leads to some Boards …
One last point, if the sub-field contains just 1 result, ie the fouled board was played just once, there will no other scores with which to compare the result; in which case do both pairs playing the fouled board get awarded +3 IMPs, or some othe…
Thanks for the above explanation Robin.
When Googling Cross-IMPs most of the sites I have found discuss what you refer to as 'XIMP/c', with occasional fairly dismissive references in such descriptions to 'raw XIMP' and 'XIMP/r'. Is there a …Just to check that I have understood your last 2 paragraphs, Robin, I will paraphrase them as follows:-
(a) one Sums the Differences between the IMPs scored on the board in question and all the other boards in the Result Set
(b) the…From your answers I deduce that my MPs above are correct.
In the case of 1 fouled result: 9.6 MPs is 60% of 16 MPs (the maximum)
In the case of 2 fouled results, there are 2 scenarios:-
(a) A Top and a Bottom: 10.4 MPs (65%…Thanks, so applying your answers above to a situation where a Board which has 9 results, giving it a Max MPs of 16:-
If 1 result is fouled, the MPs awarded to the fouled result are:-
9.6If 2 results are fouled, the M…
Thanks for your reply, Gordon, however I am still confused.
The White Book has this formula in it for dealing with Small Sub-fields:-
MPs = ((M-(A-1)+12)/10) x(E-1)
If I apply this formula to the case where E=8 (8 results…
Great, thanks, that's what I thought (but didn't like to show my ignorance!)
Thanks Gordon
