Good work, though you seemed to handle that WLC rather smoothly. Was that an Excel-based scorinator?

If I ever get round to learning Java I might. I took my last programming class in 1978.

Dude, I started kindergarten in 1978.

There's one problem I continually have. I can scorinate the first round without a problem, I go and save and whatnot. However, when I try to resume the Cup with the next round, my file says "Semifinals" but doesn't have scoring outputs and teams.
What could I be doing wrong?

For knockouts which are a Round of 16, Quarter, Semi and Finals, it shouldn't be too much trouble at all (no more than 16 teams need entering at any one time in these anyway, which is no real problem), but I just get the feeling either me or NSFS is DOIN IT RONG!

Naturally, a solution I'd prefer is a modification for Miscellenator, but right now the intention would be for a stop-gap scorinator.
The basics would be under what I'll call the "Romanid Code of Tourney", or the basic (IC) Allamunnic rules for the joust.
The main values and rules are as follows, insofar as I can think of what would be relevant to scorinating rather than straight-up RP.
1) Each club/team will have three entrants on it. Each team is referred to as a side.
2) Each entrant will be assigned a position in the side (lead, second, and third), and they will meet with their opposite number on the opposing side.
3) Each match-up of entrants will receive six lances to take running passes at one another. Points are assigned for the following:
- 7 Points for the unhorsing of an opponent (least likely). Being unhorsed also immediately ends the match-up.
- 2 points for a shattered lance.
- 1 point for a broken lance. (most likely)
4) Each match-up will recieve their six passes at one another, except if one is unhorsed, in which case they are immediately replaced by their second, then by the third.
5) When one or both sides run out of entrants, the team with the most points over-all is the winner.
6) Skill modifiers, as I would think of now, would be by entrant (so three to a team) averaging to 3 (think on the method used for Olympic skill modifiers) for the over all side, so, for instance, with a modifier set of 1, 3, and 5. The higher the skill modifier, the more likely the higher point-value events would be (to modify existing odds for them, with the lowest liklihood being for unhorsing, with a significantly higher chance of shattered lance, and the highest liklihood of a broken lance.
This is something that I've wanted to do since I came onto NS Sports, and now that TBI has encouraged me with the user-friendliness of Miscellenator and (Veph?) with NSFS 3.0, this is something I'd like to try as soon as possible, or at least test it out.
So, anyone up for it? And please let me know if there's any other relevant information here that would help with creating such a scorinator.
