To better explain my scorecard above:
Round 1, Task D, ladder, 15 second increasing time, must reach previous time before proceeding to next time, 10 minute window:
I was successful in reaching the 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, and 105 second hurdles, and failed to reach the 120s hurdle. This, my total seconds is 405. Incidentally, the highest total seconds in the group is also 405. Therefore, to get the Round score, I divided my total seconds with highest total seconds in group and multiplied it by 100 (405/405*100), to get the 1000 score.
Round 2, Task G, best 5 flights, 2 minutes max, 10 minute window: 103, 67, 50, 70, 69, 39, 70, 78 seconds. I chose the best 5 flights, 103, 70, 69, 70, 78 seconds. Since none of them exceeded the 120s (2min) max, I am able to calculated all those seconds for a total of 390 seconds as my total seconds. I divided that with the highest total seconds in round (390s) and *100, to reach the round score of 1000. The total score is now 2000.
Round 3, Task A, 5 minute max, 7 minute window, last flight counts.
This task is interesting in that only your last flight counts, so if the score is not bad, you should really consider the remaining working time, and your predicted ability to reach a better flight time, before you launch again! I scored 225 seconds (max 5 minutes/300 seconds), and from the other's flying, I decided to not fly anymore to not risk the time, as others do not have anything higher than 225s. I divided my total seconds with highest total seconds in round and *100 to get the round score, 1000. Total score is now 3000.
Round 4, Task H, 1-2-3-4 minutes max, in any order, 10 minutes max.
I recorded the times 128, 62, 242, 100 seconds. I then arranged my times the following 242(240s max), 128(180s max), 100(120s max), 62(60s max). As you see, on the 240s max and the 60s max, I exceeded the max times by 2 seconds each respectively. In which case, my adjusted seconds are as follows: 240(240s max), 128(180s max), 100(120s max), 60(60s max), for a total of 530 seconds. I divided that with the highest total seconds in round (530) *100 to reach another 1000, total score is now 4000.
Round 5, Task C, All up last down, 3 minutes max
In this task, everyone launches at the same time, and times are recorded. 3 minutes max. We do this 3 times in the round. After you land, you cannot throw again. I recorded 0, 76, and 60 seconds. I received a 0 on my first flight because I landed out of bounds. My total seconds is therefore 136 seconds. I divided that with the highest total seconds in group (167seconds) *100 to get 814, for a total of 4814.
As per F3K rules, I am able to drop 1 score after 5 flown rounds, so I dropped my 814, and is left with a perfect 4000 as my final score.
-----------------------
This Sunday, I suggest we eliminate the landing/launching area restrictions, as the field is quite small as it is. If you land outside the field, you are in water and the 0 will not make a difference. Therefore, to simplify it for the many new F3K pilots I suggest we eliminate that rule.
However, I will suggest we enforce the penalty rule, if your plane hits anyone or tents/etc during FLYING, you will receive a -100 point deduction. Timers please be aware of this and mark it accordingly. Please fly safely, and please look carefully before launching.
