Final and Consolation as sections in same session?

[David Bowerman]

Hello Ian,
We ran a pairs championship with a morning qualifying session; then afternoon session involved a "Final" section and a "Consolation" section; all in the one event.

However scores in the final and consolation fields appear merged in web results; and I can't find a way to master-point the two fields in the afternoon separately, as is required.

Should I have run the "Final" and "Consolation" as separate "events", rather than separate "sections"?
Thanks,
David.

As the help file explains:

Score sections separately
Occasionally for organisational reasons it may be necessary to combine and report the results of several sections that are of a different size and are playing different boards. In this case, and when using matchpoint scoring, you need to carefully select the "factor-to-tables" so that the scores have some meaning to the players.

When this field is ticked, each of the sections are scored independently, but with the same top on all boards. Generally this is not recommended, rather you should treat each of the sections as a different event.

Use the save names and save scores options to move to a new event.
