Hi Jim
For info....
Some of the big contesters guys or team are using www.contest.run  for online score publishing.

I was reading the soapbox comments on 3380 about the recent CQ WW CW
contest and found an interesting example that supports my point about some
participants benefiting from online scores without contributing their own.

Here's what P44W said:

*"Began the contest in unassisted mode hoping to keep a reasonable pace
with RA3CO/PZ5DX. But after the ten-hour mark, it was clear his 2BSIQ
effort would easily prevail. I switched to assisted mode, which I probably
should've done from the beginning. Waiting nearly a day likely cost me
another 30-50 multipliers."*

* (Link to forum post
<https://www.3830scores.com/showrumor.php?arg=RvYizV77nn77uU>**)*

*I'm not accusing P44W of any wrongdoing, his experience highlights my
point.*

I shared my scores throughout the contest, despite knowing my limited
capabilities wouldn't compete with a Caribbean station. P44W likely knew
switching to SO/A would secure him the top spot in South America.

This also must be analyzed in the context of the WRTC calcification.

If you read the previous messages you'd find out that Hans was
comparing contesting with football and so did I, so the mentioned
league is obviously the NFL.
You have apparently missed the discussion about contesting on-line
scoreboards for the last two weeks. And it is the topic of the thread,
to which I was responding.
