After talking to some other competitiors that broke out at the last half a second, I was wondering if the software averages up at the end. So if a competitor has a 139.95 which should show as a 139.9 on the screen, when the round ends does it make the score a 140.0. Problem I see is that during the round if your score is 139.95 to 139.99 you are still in the run, but you need to drop to a 139.94 to not get bumped.

Others have said they had a 140.0 when the arrow appeared, not before it. Would be safer to sit at 139.8 cause then if you were 139.85 to 139.89 you will be at 139.9 when the arrow appears.

Your question hurts my brain..LOL

Heres the deal, the leaderboard is driven by a serial port. This type of communication (cables) is somewhat slow. What you see on the leaderboard is a very slight delay from what you see on the computer. Actaully this may "add" to the challenge of Bass Race, because you have to anticipate the delay.

I hope every can understand we are very lucky we even have the technology to run a Bass Race event. If it were not for Wayne Harris, we would not have any way to make this happen. I am sure as things evolve we will see improvements.

Regardless, it already ROCKS!!!
