TBL is only factored once a round is finished and the results calculated. With TBL scores are adjusted to the whole score and result in whole numbers. Remember, the entire score isn't thrown out - just a maneuver score. When a score is dropped then TBL is run on the entire set of scores again to recalculate the mean and std. deviation - it is an iterative process until all scores fall within the range that are calculated
for the pilots/judges.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=156491504-19102007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=156491504-19102007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>TBL was used at the TOC for all years starting in 1999 onwards.

In all the years of scoring with TBL at the TOC I saw very few judges scores discarded which probably says more about the quality of judging than anything else. I'd be very curious what the results have been at the F3A WC's since it was
implemented.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=156491504-19102007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=156491504-19102007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I would love to see TBL in use at the Nats for the Finals in both classes - we certainly have enough judges to support its use.</FONT></SPAN></DIV><BR></BLOCKQUOTE>_______________________________________________<BR>NSRCA-discussion mailing list<BR>NSRCA-discussion@lists.nsrca.org<BR>http://lists.nsrca.org/mailman/listinfo/nsrca-discussion</BLOCKQUOTE><BR>
