This is a lot of work.

  • Number/type of rounds (restricted by number of competitors)
  • Cutoffs

https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/c.php?i=AlaniaOpen2010&allResults=1#444 is an example of a competition with a combined second round

keemy is working on hard and soft cutoffs. When a round gets a soft cutoff, it will automatically become a combined round (see refreshRoundCodes in common/methods.js.

There are two kinds of soft cutoffs that I'm aware of:

  1. You have N chances to get a solve under C seconds. If you succeed, you get to finish the average. If you fail, you only get the N solves you did.
  2. A1a2 You have C seconds to spend on all of your solves for the round. This is useful for an event like BLD where you want to give slow competitors a chance to spend a lot of time on one solve.

@jbcm627 @keemy can you think of any other kinds of soft cutoffs?

well. We now show the hard and soft cutoffs. #6.

allow entering times, and need to restrict the kinds of soft cutoff
formats we allow based on the round format (it doesn't make sense to
have a soft cutoff in 3 solves if the round format is best of 2).

This is done. Rounds no longer have a "combined" attribute. Instead, rounds are considered combined if they have a soft cutoff. #56 tracks improving the ui, but I'm pleased enough with this for Phase 1.

Reopening, because I completely forgot about letting users enter actual times.
