Sasquatch Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Yes the Trailseeker and MTN races carry a much higher weighting, so they normally improve you seeding a lot if you do well, or any of the stage races
DieVlieg Posted October 14, 2014 Author Posted October 14, 2014 just do the last few trailseekers, fast, flat and high weighting, results up the same day, SASeeding up on the monday after the race I did OK in the Curro college trailseeker race very well considering my seeding. Could not do the one the past weekend as I was on holiday. I actally wanted the seeding for the last race at Woodhill. But I am relaxed about it now. It is just that wen you advertise something then live up to it
MTB4EVER Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 I agree fully that these guys need to get their act together. We did the Plett2PE 4 day stage race in September and they have not loaded the results either. Not that I think it would improve my seeding much. Saseeding says nothing has been sent to them and the organizers never respond. There should be some sort of penalty by CSA. You trained, paid, cycled, avoided a DNF etc so the least they can do is load the results as promised. #JustMy2Cents
pezulu Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 The results of the Hazeldean Beast of the East have been up since the Monday after the event.http://www.racetime.co.za/_results/2014/RaceTime-Beast-of-the-East-MTB-2014.pdf When organisers say the event is SAS friendly, it does not automatically mean it is a seeding event for SASeeding. It means you can use your SAS board. The timing chip in the board is the same type as those used by various timing companies. SpectrumSport, RaceTime and a few others use the same type of timing chip, therefore the chips are compatible with their system.

I asked beforehand and at the race and was asured my effort would count. SASeeding is wating on the results in the comunication I had with them. And Xdirt was suprised that it was not with SASeeding yet. I felt I explained this in an earlier post. The advertisement poster had SASeeding all over it Your link says website not available. Can anyone else get through? Sorry your explanation does not work for me or everyone else pissed off at this.

Next I will ask them what user friendly route there is to make complaints against events not holding up to minimum standards and will share this with the rest of you. Ouch a 4 day stage race. I actually do not care even a 10km at R50 entry fee should deliver on their promise. If I don't care I might just as well go pay my etoll...lol
Erroli8a8 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 I am still awaiting the results from the 36One Storms River Travers to be updated. I have spoken to SAS and they are awaiting the results from the time keepers. I have seen the emails and no response from the time keepers.

Like I said it seems this is an much bigger problem than just me complaining.
MTB4EVER Posted October 16, 2014 Posted October 16, 2014 I am glad to say our results for Plett2PE have finally been uploaded onto SASEEDING after a month:)
DieVlieg Posted October 21, 2014 Author Posted October 21, 2014 Ok today 21 Oct my race of 27 Sep was uploaded. Issue sorted after I had to write a few mails and be a nag almost daily.
Sasquatch Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 So the big question is, did this drastically improve your seeding to warrant the effort? Ok today 21 Oct my race of 27 Sep was uploaded. Issue sorted after I had to write a few mails and be a nag almost daily.
