Rules & how we calculate
Draw and seeding, the penalty, the timing report, release windows and what is never changed automatically.
The rules behind the numbers. Where a rule is FIS's, the FIS text is quoted with its article number.
- The green tickThe green tick on a competitor's row is the roll call: only green-ticked racers are drawn and counted.
- Draw and seedingThe FIS and ANC articles behind the draw, quoted word for word, and what Race Bureau does and does not do by itself.
- Release and protest windowsA release from the desk opens no clock; a 15-minute protest window is set per document when an admin posts it from the phone, and a lodged protest holds the document until it is resolved.
- Timing reportThe FIS Timing and Data Technical Report: what it holds, where every line comes from, and the FIS format it is sent in.
- Penalty calculationHow the race penalty is worked out, step by step, under the FIS Alpine Points rules, art. 4.4.
- UnitsTimes are truncated, never rounded; speeds and lengths show in the account's units.
- What is never changed automaticallyThe desk marks problems; it does not fix them for you.
