RCPennantSubmitter
submits table tennis results to Ratings Central.
For help getting started see Youtube videos created by Kameron Chan.
The purpose of the program is to enable efficient submission of table tennis singles pennant results to Ratings Central.
The program can be used to:
1) Enter scores for submission to Ratings Central, manually (similar to Cantor), from importing text files, importing RevSport csv exports.
2) Create Pennant fixtures, ladders and match score entry with submission of results to Ratings Central and posting to a WordPress site as well as production of Table allocation sheets and score sheet printouts.
3) Interact with RCPennantScorer via dropbox (or manual pasting from email) to collect match data entered by other scorers.
4) One click updating of Latest scores to a WordPress Website.
This program has been developed by Gerard McCarthy of ES&CTTA using Livecode.
Thanks to David Marcus of Ratings Central for the very clear API that makes it possible to design such a program easily. Special thanks for his help in deciphering the API pascal encryption and encoding routines needed for the password conversion for the Event Report.
Thanks to David Smith (AWTTA), Jeff Gardner and Trevor K Turner (SETTA), Graham Wallis (MPTTA), Sam Esposito (ACT), Melvin Petch (TTWA), Claire Montgomery & Kameron Chan (TTV Premier League), Bruce Carter & Zach Anstey (CTTC), John Keating & Greg Bristowe (CDTTA) for feedback and suggestions.
