[SCCC] GETSCORES

[Timothy Coker]

I really enjoy GetScores.org also. We (SCCC) had a few posts about this in
March. I used it this time as I was assisted, but missed the real time score
tracking aspect during the SSB WPX as I was SO. I think it's a lot of fun
for the assisted categories to use.

A basic excerpt summary of the last posting round in which several members
enlightened me that GetScores.org would put you into the assisted category:

"You guys bring up a valid point about being assisted. While it does provide
a spectator like atmosphere to contesting, much like hearing a competitor's
serial number over the air, it also shows near real time band break downs.
These band break downs would indeed indicate who has an opening on which
band(s).

I enjoy it for what it is, but I will refrain from using it when I am not
operating assisted."

73,

Tim / N6WIN.
