Yes. The only issues are that any name fixes will be lost and RG routes will be lost or there will be a duplicate RG event (I can't remember which)

So I see...

The ideal would be if the organisers could log back in to the results pages & reupload a file (regenerated in Ór?)

Is that possible (if they have the login/password)?

I think the results page uses the csv file to generate output while the leagues system uses the database. I suspect you have fixed the course names in the database but messed up the csv file a bit.

BTW. I don't see any obvious link to the leagues page on orienteering.ie. Maybe it would be a good idea to add a link on the Events menu.

Hi Marcus,

%0D%0A

I've done some manual tidying up of the DBN League page and it's improved - let me know if it looks more like what you had in mind?

%0D%0A

The results for St Patrick's College look a bit odd before they make it to the League calculations (https://www.orienteering.ie/result2/?oaction=fullSIResult&id=22406) but I think they might be OK? The fact that both 'Long' courses seem to have separate results means they look OK.

%0D%0A

Shout if any other observations.

A personal word of thanks to all involved in staging this year's Night-O series, I'm really enjoying it. Well done.
And I'm looking forward to the grand finale in the Curragh on Saturday (mass start? go on, you know you want to...)

There is a NightO 2022 league table on https://www.orienteering.ie/result/leagues/ but unfortunately there are some problems with it. I'm putting this message here not to criticise, but to encourage organisers of future events to be careful about course names and results publication.

%0D%0A

- The St. Patrick's College event is missing - I presume because it was not categorised correctly in the events registration system? Also it seems to have two longs and a short so if it does eventually make it into the league it may mess things up.

%0D%0A

- Sport Ireland Campus used course names "Night Long" and "Night Short" instead of "Long" and Short", this causes four courses to appear in the league table instead of the expected two. Next year we should stick to Short and Long.

%0D%0A

And I'll say it again to all those who made it happen - thank you.

Just been looking through the forum posts and can't find any mention of a DBN league this year... I know there are events but is there any competition i.e. the best three of...
