Who advances to division?

Monday, November 4, 2024 11:57 AM

I'm not sure if this is a settings thing or a glitch.

When I look at a division, I'm seeing my section Champions and Reserves, and a lot that are labeled 'promoted with DNP'. That's fine, because reserve or even third in a strong class might beat a champion in a weaker class. But...

I feel like I am a little unclear on which DNPs are showing up. It seems there are some class winners and seconds that don't appear and I don't understand why. It's probably something I did in settings but didn't really understand? In some cases a class winner might have been one I would place above the DNPs that the system offered me.

It sometimes also has taken a few minutes for all of the section winners to show up in the list which could be an issue if someone goes ahead and judges the division without realizing that everyone's not there yet.

Thx!

This relates to a show setting that would have been changed during show creation, called "send callback placings up to: __"

By default, that is 2 (so 1st and 2nd place advance to sections, and section champion and reserve advance to division). If it was set to 15 when there were only 10 placings in the class, it would send up 5 DNPs as well as 1st through 10th. I can see that in your show that most of the sections have send callbacks up to 12, so that is why you were seeing a bunch of DNP horses in your division callbacks. Had it been set to 2 you would have only seen your section champions and reserves in the division.

As for the last part, it is not possible to conclude section or division champions if all the classes within are not already judged and the callbacks sent forward. So that shouldn't be a concern :)
