EC 2010 and need for better online reporting for Continental and World Championship events

 
Today Thursday is a rest day. 
 

Best of luck for Victor Stamov, our unofficial facebook reporter and others for tomorrow’s f1A day.

 

The official web site http://www.ec2010turkey.com/ has posted the F1C and F1B results under the results tab – at the time of writing the F1C did not contain the final flyoff scores.  We put Victor Stamov’s F1C mini-report below

 
FIC
Tuesday, July, 20 - F1C. The best weather from arrival. Rounds starts at 8:00 with lanch from 11:55 till 13:00.

12. A. Kaitchuk (RUS) +94
42. L. Fuzeev (current E/Ch, RUS) - dropped 2nd round for 79 s (launch to the right) and stopped

There has been quite some dissatisfaction around the Online reporting of results

 
For example the note from Daniel Rockberger
 
Hi Roger
 
I totally agree, i was very upset to see that the Turkish website was not updating during the contest, very hard to keep up to date with the people there what is happening.
 
I have written to the organiser, and plan to bring this up with the CIAM.
 
Daniel Rockberger
Israel delegate to CIAM
 
 

It is clear that we have an expectation of a high level of communication for World and Continental Championship events.  The CIAM should revise their procedures to include indication of the requirements.

 
 
 
 MMM 14 Rounder
 
 

The 31st annual running of America's toughest contest is now in the record books and it was a record breaking event.  For the first time in 31 years we had a flyoff after a full 14 rounds.  Both Blake Jensen and Eddie Vanlandingham were perfect after 14 rounds in F1B.  The flyoff was accomplished as the weather detoriated with both making the 300 second flight.  After a thunderstorm delay they flew again for the 420 max with Blake posting the highest time.
 
Special thanks to all the MMMers who pitched in to help.  Chuck and Bill Gieskieng set up the parking and Chuck also had the chemcan cleaned.  Mark Covington and Don DeLoach led the efforts to set-up thge flight lines and score board. Mark was the glider pen manager for Saturday.  Bill Lovins and the injured Darold Jones were score keepers Saturday. Todd Reynolds managed Sunday's glider pen.  Sunday's scoring was managed by Sue Etherington, Darold and Mel Gray. 
 
Awards were presented by myself with the help of Mel Gray and Pete McQuade. Post contest clean-up was accomplished by Chuck Etherington, Don DeLoach, Roland solomon, and Dave Wineland.
 
A team effort like this is a big reason people think so highly of the MMM contests, thanks.
