Yup.

There is a reason we got to the method of scoring that we have...experience. Instead of trying to change the method of scoring to match what electronic timing systems were designed to do (which is what people try to do and tend to fail at) one should look at creating an electronic scoring system based on our system of scoring.

....it's not time based....it's position based.

Goes to DOK's point
