End of season rollover
The rowing season ends on 30th April.
The meterboard should just stop updating at this time and wait for me to reset it.
The reset is not automatic (sadly - maybe one day) and usually I sit down and spend an evening fiddling about with it to get it right.
This year I am quite busy through the change over time. I should have a few hours on 1st May, which may be enough(!), but if I cock it up I won't have time to look at it until Tuesday. So bear with me. I will get there.
This year the roll over coincides with the first game of the cricket season and my cycling in the Tour of Yorkshire 104km sportive...

Re: End of season rollover 2015
Thank you, Thomas!
I say the first who asks why the meterboard 2016 is not up yet, has to give a round.

Re: End of season rollover 2015
Thank you Thomas for the incredible amount of work you put into maintaining the meter board and the site in general.
Good luck with the Tour of Yorkshire at the weekend. You're really getting into this cycling lark, aren't you?

Re: End of season rollover 2015
I haven't been here for a long time, but for the short time that I have been able to poke around here, I have to say that you do a really super job. I would also like to thank you for all your hard work.

Re: End of season rollover 2015
Thank you. I *think* it is working. Much easier than last year despite me forgetting everything that I had to do. That probably helped since I had to work out everything from first principles.
I would *really* like to be able to show the last two meterboards in their final standing, but never got to it... Maybe one day.
And yes, cycling. Love it despite it nearly killing me last year, giving my broken ribs and a brain injury I still have issues with (MRI coming )

Re: End of season rollover
I have rolled over to the new 2018 season.
New feature: Archived final table from 2017. Can't think why I did not do this before.
As usual, let me know any problems on this thread, that I will subscribe to.
My rowing has all but stopped apart from a 1k warm up at the gym each week. But cycling becomes ever more important for me. I have also eaten less in 2017 and have lost 18kg so far. I completed the Roubaix challenge (full 172km) this year though my crappy foot still causes problems.

Re: End of season rollover
Thanks for the rollover efforts Thomas - and congrats on the 18kg weight loss - very impressive indeed. =D> =D>

As ever Thomas, thanks for all the great work. =D> =D> =D> =D>
I don't think the icons on the Meterboard are working. Nobody has any icons that I can see at the right hand side of their row in the board.

Re: End of season rollover
I forgot that C2 moved over to https so was looking for a non-existent page for the results.
Fixed now.

Re: End of season rollover
I forgot to make a small change to config during end of season rollover. Free Spirits Forum Follower achievement will now appear as you look at the meterboard.
