SCA Marshalled Scores

Greetings my fellow Archers,

Many years ago I built a little website to speed up the process of getting a Royal Round score from the range into each archer's Official Average, which originally typically took over 3 months. Now that site is in full use, typically takes less then a week, and when all the marshals align it can be done in a single evening. Over time many new features were added to that site, to include; tools to help the Archery Deputy Earl Marshal better manage the Badges which needed to be given out, a new type of standardized shoot which could easily be changed, then Atlatl was added as a new "class" of archery shoot which doubled all the tools needed, and using all the recorded data many other fun tools and statistics were added like graphs of each archers averages and scores over time.

After a while a neighboring kingdom took notice of the Atlantian site and asked if it would be possible to setup a similar site for them as well. So the Aethelmearc site was born with all of the features from the Atlantian site at the time. But as time went on and new features were added to the Atlantian site, some of those were also added to the Aethelmearc site. Over time the two sites became more and more different, so became more and more difficult to maintain, fix problems, make requested changes, and add new features to. When three other groups requested sites of there own at nearly the same time, the Kingdom of Trimaris, the Principality of The Summits and the Atlantian Thrown Weapons it became obvious that a new version of the site was overdue. A version which could handle all the scores from practically any marshalled activity in various Kingdoms and Communities, yet was flexible enough to handle the differences in the way each calculated their averages and displayed their rankings. This version would re-use as many of the forms and display pages as possible, yet allow for completely custom pages where needed. And finally would allow the many scorekeepers out there to easily get their Kingdom/Community's scores published online.

This site is live as of Memorial Day weekend 2008. Initially changes are coming quick as many make great suggestions to add to the site for the benifit of everyone. So please be patient while I work to help support not only the Atlantian archery community, but the archery community Society wide, as well as any other marshalled target community who wishes to join.

If you have any suggestions or would like more information about this site, my mailbox is always open. If you have questions about a specific shoot or are a marshal who can not logon please contact the Scorekeeper or Deputy Earl Marshal for the Kingdom you are in. If you are from a Kingdom or Community who would possibly like to use this site to maintain your scores, I'd be happy to give you a behind the scenes tour, get you up and running, then turn over control to you.
