Re: On Line Real Time Scoreboard Questions & User Input?

Scott,
 
Please consider including the ability to upload to MULTIPLE scoreboards simultaneously.  I’m sure there will be some users who will want that functionality.

Subject: [N3FJP_Software_Users] On Line Real Time Scoreboard Questions & User Input?
 
 

Hi Gang,

 
In response to several requests, I am in the process of adding optional, automatic upload of your current, real time contest score to my contest software.  This is in addition to the Web Upload Contest Status feature that has been around for a while now.
 
Besides the existing Web Upload Contest Status (which our club LOVES), I've not used any other real time score boards at all myself, so I really need your input. 
 
These are the two scoreboards that I am aware of:
 
http://cqcontest.net
 
http://contestonlinescore.com
 
Luckily, both support the same xml method for uploading scores, so the code under the hood will be the same for both sites.  That said, I do need to set one as default.

So, my questions are:
 
1.  Which scoreboard site is most often used?
 
2.  Are you aware of any other scoreboards besides these two?
 
Thanks in advance for your help!
