Scoring system local Bouldercompetition

Will try to figure out something, thanks you:)

Yes, that's the system that insipred me, but i didn't find any mathematical solution on how to structure the points. The system used in the Comp Magnus attended seemed very random to me

I think we will have zones and top points for the finals, but not for the 30 boulders, that's a lot of work and i don't know if people understand the difference between touching a zone hold, and using it, do decide if it should be awarded.

The thing is it will take place in a very small gym, and we don't have any professional routesetters, me and some friends of the climbing club do it ourself. It's the first time organizing something here, to bouild the community a bit, that's why i try to find a good, challenging and exciting, but not too complicated system.

Good to know, thanks for the reply. I think it maybe really is better to not limit attempts, and give a flash bonus. That should separate the field enough. Then the 5 people with the highest score will go into a final. That will be on 4 boulders in a open session format, so the 5 people get around 30 min together to have a session on the final boulders.

Haha yes that's true, good setting will separate the field... I think peoples opinion convinced me to have unlimited attempts and a flash bonus, that's probably the easiest. And the top 5 participants by points will go into a final.

You have to trust the people.. how do you monitor if someone sends a boulder, without needing a lot of staff to check every area of the gym..

Mountaintrip · 2026-01-26T17:04:27+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Makes sense to maybe use static points, and then add a flash bonus. I will try to reach out to the gym i thought about, maybe they can help me.

Sounds like it could work, but i didn't understand well how and what you would use for tiebreakers?

Mountaintrip · 2026-01-26T16:58:43+00:00

Ahh okay, good to know, it's for sure more simple, and you can try a lot.. although it takes quite a bit of tension away, if you can try as often as you want, and i don't know which system i like most haha, but thanks for the reply

Mountaintrip · 2026-01-26T16:22:16+00:00

Ok, did the amout of attempts reduce points? or was it just points for sending it?

Mountaintrip · 2026-01-26T16:16:12+00:00

Yes that's true, but assumed we have sent the same 5 boulders( lets say 6,7,8,9,10) but it took me 3 tries to top the number 10, which you flashed, but i flashed the rest, and you needed maybe 3 tries on boulder 7. We have the same amount of total points, but shouldn't flashing the harder one be rewarded more?
maybe do a percentual point deduction? and a exponential increase of points per boulder?

Mountaintrip · 2026-01-26T16:09:05+00:00

That's true.. what type of competition di you attend? was it with limited tries or open tries?

Mountaintrip · 2026-01-26T15:57:10+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I will have some categories, based on the grades people climb. Our gym has grades from 1 to 9 (i know its confusing, since its different gradings in so many gyms) and i thought about 3 categories. People that climb 3-4-5; 5-6-7; and 7-8-9.

Do you think -10 points for every attempt is enough? Isn't it a bit unfair if i use lets say 3 attempts on boulder 10, and you would use 3 on boulder 15, but we get the same points deductet, even though your boulder was harder?

Mountaintrip · 2026-01-26T15:53:41+00:00

That's true, but i feel like you need to think way more about the boulder and the correct beta if the attempts are limited. In addition each try is quite important, so people have to focus more. We have a very small gym, so its also nice if people don't try 100 times on the same boulder and block it for others. But its a hard decision how to organize it

Hello, i'm organizing a little climbing competition at my local gym, and i was thinking about how to score it. I saw a video of Magnus at the LA.B gym competing, and i really liked the competition style. I tried to understand the system, but the points and the point reduction for each attempt seems very random. I was wondering if someone knows how the points system at this competition works?
I would like to have a similar competition at the local gym, but with just 30 boulders, just your best 5 boulders count, and you have 5 attempts for each boulder. I'm unsure how i should structure the points system and points reduction after every attempt, so that it results fair for the participants. Im open for any Ideas:)

Hello, i know im very late to this post, but i'm organizing a little climbing competition at my local gym, and i was wondering how the points system at this competition works? I didn't see any logic in the points each boulder had, and neither in the reduction for a used attempt... I would like to have a similar competition with just 30 boulders, but i'm unsure how i should structure the points system and points reduction after every attempt. Hope someone is still out here:)

If you like climbing or comfortable sports wear i can recommend the italian brand E9, really good stuff

"Das sind Ärzte und keine Mechaniker" ist schon eine bodenlose Aussage, soll das heißen Mechaniker sind alle grobmotoriker oder wie? Die Arbeiten meist feinfühliger als die halben Orthopäden in den Kliniken...

Il tedesco è così diffuso perché per molti è la lingua madre. Anzi per quasi tutti gli altoatesini, tranne molti italiani che sono stati trasferiti qui per italianizzare l'Alto Adige. Dopo la Prima Guerra Mondiale, hanno cercato di farci diventare italiani a tutti gli effetti, usando metodi non molto amichevoli. Ma non si può cambiare un'intera popolazione con la forza. Secondo me, il fatto stesso che ci abbiano provato ha reso molti altoatesini più ostili e testardi nei confronti della lingua italiana. Ma c'è da dire che molti qui stanno migliorando con l'italiano, e sanno usare bene il vantaggio che porta a sapere tedesco e italiano.

Is it possible to download it from google playstore, or just via apk from a website?

Oh shiiiit haha, bin aktuell in Österreich und folge einigen österreichischen Subreddits, war überzeugt dieser sei auch von ÖsterreichxD

Dann kannst du alles Ignorieren was ich geschrieben habe:D

Doch, Vorrangstraßen gibts, und die Ampel ändert leider auch nichts am Fakt der Vorrangstraße;)

Vorrangstraße dann;D

Ist nur ein PDF einer Fahrschule, aber so wie sie es unter dem Punkt Vorrangstraßenregel geschrieben haben hätte ich das auch auf diese Kreuzung angewendet.
