I have updated my semi-automatic or manual score posting app to work with
the new live score posting site.  It is available on my web site at:
http://www.k1ttt.net/software/realtimescorereporting_live.zip
The source is at:
http://www.k1ttt.net/software/realtimescorereporting_live_source.zip

Some notes... read the readme.txt file for basic instructions on how to use
it!

I consider this rude and crude software... it has very little error checking
and is likely to fail in odd ways if you don't do everything just right.
And it has had very little testing.

This was designed to be run on a machine that already had n1mm logger
installed, it may be relying on some dll or control that n1mm had installed
so I won't bet that it will run on all other machines, it may depend on what
other software you have installed.  If nothing else, install n1mm logger
first... but then again, if you had that you wouldn't need this, would you?

Test it EARLY!  If the scores don't show and you are sure you have
everything filled in correctly send me a screen snapshot of your setup AND
copy the text out of the grey box and sent it to me directly, not to the
reflector!  I will not make any more changes to this after Tuesday or maybe
Wednesday, and then only if I absolutely have to... I have enough other
things to do this week before cqww!

I have included a single example of a semi-automatic upload if you can
create a text file in the right format from your logger.  Again, test this
early if you think you want to try it!  The source.zip file has more
examples of score files for other contests and old setups that probably
won't work with them any more, but it may give you some ideas.
