Competition Software Tools

I've created a section on the KOII site (what's KOII?) containing a few applications, some of which are in development. Since most things on the page are relevant to competitions, I figured this subforum was more appropriate (and more visible) than the software subforum.

A lot of this is an amalgamation of work over the past few years by several people, and so is something I thought would be worth centralizing and offering as a service to anyone running/delegating a competition. The following tools are the most useful and functional at the moment:
  • Live Results System - free for download by anyone
  • Website Hosting - you'll have to ask nicely. We can offer either a drupal install or plain html site.
  • CubingUSA Registration System - Again, you'll have to ask nicely, and also have a CubingUSA or KOII Drupal site. And Bryan will have to like you.
  • Workbook Validator - free for download by anyone, otherwise ask nicely for a password

The page contains both demos and download links:

Yup....Jim does a really good job adding more and more stuff. Hopefully one day we'll have a complete system integrated where everything is completely integrated (registration, excel sheet, live results, etc).
 
I've added another link: the JCRA Competition Manager. This is sort of an all-in-one package developed by Masayuki Akimoto. Using a number of macros, it provides a large number of features (some major ones listed on that webpage), and has pretty thorough documentation. Certainly worth a look at if you are organizing a competition.
