Upload December 11, 2013

[Douglas Bryson]

We have been unable to make the weekly upload to refresh online grades scheduled for December 11. The problems are persisting into a second day. The programmers are working on a fix.

Meanwhile the tournament crosstables are all uploaded as normal - this is a separate process from the refresh of online grades. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://chessscotland.com/event2014/events2014.htm">http://chessscotland.com/event2014/events2014.htm</a><!-- m -->

The master.zip used by area graders was also updated as normal.

Unfortunately the problems are persisting.

The programming team are investigating and we hope to have a solution as soon as possible but this may be a couple of weeks away. Latest information will be updated here.

This season and last should now be showing properly in the online grading system. Grand Prix crosstables should also be operational – both sets of data updated to December 18. The historic data in the online system will be reintroduced soon.
