This documentation will help you get started using Avogadro, and if you are helping support a competition doing scoring through Avogadro, get you acquainted with the possibilities of your user role in your competition. text/html 2009-11-09T12:49:33-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/scoring?rev=1257792573&do=diff Here's the critical bit of the whole scoring system, the actual scoring of the events. Each event is assigned a particular event supervisor. That judge can visit the “events” page of the “competition” area of the competition to score the event. Competition organizers can edit scoring information for any event in their competition. text/html 2009-06-22T13:38:30-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/php?rev=1245695910&do=diff ArrayPHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. Much of its syntax is borrowed from C, Java and Perl with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown in. The goal of the language is to allow web developers to write dynamically generated pages quickly. text/html 2009-06-22T13:34:35-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/smarty?rev=1245695675&do=diff ArraySmarty is a template engine designed for PHP, by the creators of PHP. It is designed to separate the functionality of the PHP code from the display of the content. For more information on how to create and edit Smarty templates, view their online documentation. text/html 2009-06-22T13:24:14-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/backups?rev=1245695054&do=diff Avogadro automatically makes CSV backups of scoring information available via FTP from the instance's main directory. If you log in using the instance's FTP username and password, the home folder for that user will contain a “backup” folder. Within that folder will be a CSV file for each event (named “event_[ID].csv”, where [ID] is the ID number of the event), and an overall results file (named 'overall.csv'). text/html 2009-06-22T12:57:46-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/organizers?rev=1245693466&do=diff Each competition is owned by an individual or a committee group who has control over the many facets of the competition instance on Avogadro. Within the Avogadro competition, they are set as “SO Staff” and “SO Manager” users. They have control over the configuration of the instance, including uploading templates to change the look and feel of their competition, setting individual preferences on what rule sets and features to enable/disable for their competition, and setting the events available … text/html 2009-06-19T14:34:55-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/configs?rev=1245440095&do=diff Competition organizers have access to change various parameters about how that particular competition will be run. Documentation Prefix This parameter is a string value that is a path to wherever documentation for Avogadro overall is kept. The default prefix (”http://docs.avogadro.ws/”) will link here, to the main Avogadro documentation wiki. If this parameter is blank, no links to documentation will appear throughout the competition. If it is non-blank, it will be used as a prefix, followed b… text/html 2009-06-19T14:28:07-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/events?rev=1245439687&do=diff Each competition has a set of defined events. These events can be grouped into different event groups, have different descriptions, and assigned event supervisors, all set by the competition organizers. Organizers also have control over the set minimum and maximum number of events that schools must enter in the competition. This minimum/maximum counts the entry types that are not set to “audit” to determine if a school is in the appropriate range. Each competition can have a maximum of 65,535 ev… text/html 2009-06-19T14:25:24-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/judges?rev=1245439524&do=diff See Event Supervisors text/html 2009-06-19T14:24:10-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/event_supervisors?rev=1245439450&do=diff Event Supervisors are individually assigned to an event by the competition organizers, and can enter raw scores and final scores for their event. Avogadro provides many ways for Event Supervisors to simplify the scoring process, including duplicate-checking (to ensure ties are broken) and automatic sorting (ascending or descending) of raw scores. text/html 2009-06-18T14:07:41-05:00 Brooks Boyd http://docs.avogadro.ws/schools?rev=1245352061&do=diff Each instance of Avogadro can specify a number of schools that are bringing teams to compete in the competition. Schools have an assigned name, ID, and optional group identifiers, which are used to differentiate them on various reports. Additional information about the schools (address, email, housing preferences, etc.) can also be recorded. Each school can have one coach assigned to them, and various team members can be associated with them. Each school can be entered in the events hosted by th…
