ENPS Steel Challenge Match, June 16th...

[JTH]

Just reminding folks that our next Steel Challenge match is coming up this Sunday---as always, the match will have six stages.

Help set up at 7:15am when registration starts.  Registration closes at 8:40 with the safety briefing.  Shooter's meeting at 9am.

Only $15!

I'll be in Illinois for the Area 5 match, so you all have fun without me... 

(Wish I could shoot both!)

SO - what he means is "someone ELSE can win production"

What a perfect way to celebrate Fathers day!  Of course my wife isn't too keen about it.  But I told her, if it was Mothers Day no way  in h e double l.  But if I am supposed to do something I like for Fathers Day, why not shoot?  See you all there.

[JTH]

78 shooters showed up?  Man, I wish I could have made it...

Hope everyone had a good time!

It was boss

MOAR!!!!!!!!!!!!

need more steel challenge matches!

awesome time today!
the little 10/22 did well today 

[dcjulie]

I mis-informed Thomas about the # of shooters - we had 79!

It was an awesome day!  We had 79 people registered, squadded, shot 6 stages, and were done by 2pm.  I have to say, ENPS runs a great match. 

SO - for those who loved it, come out and shoot the sectional! 

[dukduk]

Just curious, what happened to the results?

[tobydog]

At the present moment, we're having a malfunction with the scoring system. 3 of us all have the same issue of not showing all the competitors results even though all the scores have been entered. I believe Terry is going to contact USPSA for assistance.

[Chris Z]

How come USPSA doesn't have a APP to enter Steel match scores yet?


As much loot as they collect from all the clubs, surely they can afford that  :-)

[AFLt]

uh oh looks like we are gonna have to re-shoot the match 

[dcjulie]

The scores have been uploaded to the enps page. 

There was a glitch in the database, and I made an error which apparently caused chaos to ensue.  Hopefully this will not happen again.

Thanks for everything you do for the club Julie!

Thanks for everything you do for the club Julie!

We had 79 competitors---6 stages, 5 of which had 5 runs, and 1 of which had 4 runs.

Which means she had to register, squad, and enter into the match 79 people, and then enter two thousand ninety-one data points (all of the individual string times) ---and that was in addition to shooting the match herself.

Yeah, she works a bit.

Thanks for everything you do for the club Julie!

Definitely a big +++

That is a tough job that requires a lot of commitment and no pay.


THANK YOU JULIE!!!



I am stunned that USPSA does not have electronic scoring for Steel Challenge (on the Nooks/Palms/iPods, etc....) That is a HUGE amount of work for someone to manually enter each score (while trying to decipher 20 different individuals handwriting

You are welcome.  I don't get paid, but I do take "gifts."  I like jewelry, clothing, Harley stuff, wine coolers, longshot powder, small rifle primers, etc.

PractiScore is working on a module for Steel Challenge.  Last I communicated with them (a few months ago) - there was some "legal stuff" that they were working through.  They were hoping (at that time) to have a program to beta test by the end of this year.

Yes, she does.  [sigh]

And it'll be wonderful when they do.  The really cool thing is that coding for Practiscore will be simple---as usual, it is the interface with EZ Steel (the USPSA official SC program) that will be difficult.

[dcjulie]

Yes, she does.  [sigh]

At least I'm easy to shop for!
