What's the state-of-the-art in electronic scoresheets? I've created my own Excel sheets for this task but I'm guessing someone has a good Google Sheets template out there, right? I see NAQT has one but that's closely tied to their format and also doesn't have multiple sheets (meaning you need a new document for each round).
Neg5 lets you collaboratively enter stats but doesn't emulate the full scoresheet, right?

Re: Electronic scoresheets
Alistair mentioned that UCSD has a set of scoresheets here, as well as Shawrisheets. I believe Penn State also has a set of online scoresheets too, though I don't know of any links to them.

Re: Electronic scoresheets
The scoresheet format thing might be a deal-breaker depending on the rules you are using, but the single worksheet thing is not a barrier. If you want, say, one file for each room, just copy the worksheet for as many times as you have rounds.Mike Bentley wrote: ↑Sun Aug 02, 2020 5:58 pm I see NAQT has one but that's closely tied to their format and also doesn't have multiple sheets (meaning you need a new document for each round).
- Download the file from here
- Unprotect the worksheet (there is no password) so you can edit it
- Copy the worksheet for each round you need
- Rename the worksheet tabs for each round, or however you want to do it

Re: Electronic scoresheets
Regarding this, I believe the scoresheets in Neg5 go directly to the stats software, rather than it being a collaborative stats-entering software.Mike Bentley wrote: ↑Sun Aug 02, 2020 5:58 pm Neg5 lets you collaboratively enter stats but doesn't emulate the full scoresheet, right?

Re: Electronic scoresheets
Not like this one's the greatest, but I did make one a couple years back that is designed more for displaying on a projector for spectators.

Re: Electronic scoresheets
The scoresheet template for Penn State's scoresheet system can be viewed here (for NAQT style tournaments). Anyone can make copies of the file. I can make specific scoresheet systems with tossup tracking upon request.

Re: Electronic scoresheets
After some further exploration it does seem that Neg5 has a scoresheet. This seems like the system to recommend.Mike Bentley wrote: ↑Sun Aug 02, 2020 5:58 pm What's the state-of-the-art in electronic scoresheets?

Re: Electronic scoresheets
At least when stats are entered as a game summary (similar to SQBS) rather than cycle-by-cycle, Neg5 fails to validate many aspects, making it easy to produce stats that are obviously impossible and, therefore, not useful (and not acceptable to NAQT). Does the scoresheet entry mode do a better job?
