Each Series in your account will have a default ranking points allocation (point system), that awards points to athletes in the rankings based on their final event result in a division.
This article details:
- how to set the default points allocation in a series
- how to create a custom points allocation for your organisation
- the default LiveHeats points allocation
How to set the default points allocation in a series
- Once the LiveHeats team has added a custom point allocation to your account, navigate to the Series area and select the relevant Series via the title dropdown
- Click Series settings > Rankings
- In the Default points allocation section, select the points allocation you'd like to be the default for this series
- Click Save to update. Any event results will now receive this baseline point allocation in the series:
How to create a custom points allocation for your organisation
- Download the template file in Excel or if you use Google Sheets, make a copy here
- Input your points allocation into column B. If you need to add more places than 50, feel free to add those directly into the file
- Submit the file and complete the form below
- We'll take care of this in 1-2 business days and let you know when its active. You'll then be able to set the points allocation as a series default, or for a specific event division
Note: If you'd just like to increase or decrease the points for a specific event, check out the leaderboard multiplier feature - go here for instructions.
