CalTeacher Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 So I'm currently A in single stack, but I'd be really close to master if it weren't for the fact that I have some older classifiers in the 60-64% range still being counted. How can these be counted when I have some in the 80's and high 70's that aren't being counted especially since the ones being counted are more than 5% below the minimum for my class? Anyone else have this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motosapiens Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 if you got those scores before you made A class, then they will still count. why do you have some in the 80's that aren't being counted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea. I have emailed USPSA about this twice and I cannot get an answer. i suspect that I had bad timing with my scores. I have a 79% and 80% that aren't being counted because I guess they were a few months before I made A and got bumped out by my 86, 92, and 93% scores that are most recent.

motosapiens Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) well, yeah, if they are old, they won't count anymore. and if the low scores were before you made A, they will count until they get too old. My advice to you is go shoot some more classifiers. Or you could post/pm your uspsa number, and someone good at math could take a look and explain it to you.

CalTeacher Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 that makes sense. I was under the impression that all classifiers below the minimum threshold would drop after moving up, but I stand corrected. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusticeOfToren Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 The algorithm in the calculation has one important rule that is not documented in the Rule Book: If a score has ever been Y or F at any point of time, that score will never become "B". In your case, you probably had below-bracket scores for initial classification. Those used for initial classifications may look below your bracket once you obtained your initial classification, but they will not become "B" because they have been marked as "Y" to start with.

Darqusoull13 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Since we are on the topic, if I have a score marked "A" (This classifier was not used, since the score is more than 15% above class and determined by the data enterer to be invalid) and I will move up a class such that the criteria would no longer apply (i.e. would be within 15%), will that score be counted towards my classification? Or is an "A" mark simply flagged forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is an "A" mark simply flagged forever. i'm guessing it will be there forever, but all you have to do is call or email and assure them the score is valid and they will count it.

Darqusoull13 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I've emailed and had the MD email to confirm. I'll just send the emails again then since I've heard the same information from several people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
