I had not answered your IM because I was helping the guy at SC finish the scoring and make sure it was right. 
1. There is only person that has the right to order me to do anything, and you ain't her.
2. Is was just a joke, sorry if it offended you. If you cannot take a little joke, well that's on you, not me. Again, it was in jest. Hence the smiley.
3. As for the sermon, it was far from it. When we implemented this as Silver Creek we had the old, set the way crowd b#@&h, p%&s and moan over this. In fact, I saw it first hand at a match when we had a shooter actively try to sabotage the scoring with Practiscore, simply be he did not like it.
This is not that hard, if people are willing to do this. I find that people that are resistant to this, just want to shoot, want to do the very little work at a match and go home, or simply enjoy the art of complaining about everything.
This is an all volunteer sport. I have been in it since last Oct and I have tried to help Dave at Silver Creek make it better, to be more efficient in scoring and posting of the scores. I personally think that we are succeeding at it. All new things have a learning curve and there will be mistakes and mis-steps along the way. We had them at Silver Creek, but we have learned from them and are getting faster with each match. What we have learned, I'm passing on to Max and crew, so they will have a shorter learning curve than we did.
The guys that put on matches, do the set-up, tear down and enter scores are, as I'm sure you are aware, often the same small group if not at times, the same couple of guys. They work, have families and other commitments outside USPSA. If it takes hours to enter say 60 shooters, why not make that job easier for those guys and use something like Practiscore, so they have time for other things?
As for not saying where the scores are posted, that was an unintentional oversight, I'm sure. Of course if you have a USPSA number, you would receive a email once the scores were up loaded to the USPSA website.
All I'm trying to do is help make the scoring aspect of the matches go faster for the guys that bust their humps putting on the matches so people like you can shoot.
If I have made you grumpy or ruffled your feathers, that was not my intention. It really wasn't. This something that we all love to do, it's just a game, a sport. Nothing to get all that worked up over, really.
Now, enough of the high-jacking of this thread.
Just can't take you anywhere...

I'm almost positive you was against automobiles computers texting and cell phones too!
You know all the stuff that makes your life easier
We really appreciate what you have done for the club the last few years.
I mentioned earlier, it isn't that bad if they are working. In Wisconsin, they didn't responds well to cool temperatures. We spent more time in between shooters trying to get the scores correct. Maybe it is just because Wisconsin sucks, but I could foresee it being an issue here in October, November, March and early April. Granted, it does get you the scores quicker and it really isn't that hard to do. I hadn't touched one since April and I was able to enter a few shooters while our resident Kindle guy was shooting. Then I had an incident and just RO'd the rest of the day...
