We are delighted to announce that the Oxfam Open is returning in October 2013.
The Oxfam Open is the original charitable fencing competition with all profits going to support the work of Oxfam.
...

Fully agree with the above, if you now have the a short in the buzzer you could be under powering the PIC and then who knows what is happening. Also if the buzzer is now high resistance it will draw...

I've thought a fair bit about a Pi based box, timing shouldn't be a huge issue as I seem to remember it has a pretty fast clock. I agree that the interface would require a bit of work, although maybe...

I have seen a solid green light come on when the box is switched on before (I normally leave them in epee when I'm fixing things so can't comment about the white). I do not entirely know what it...

Does anyone know what points were available for what position and when these will be added on to BUCS?

Hi,

We've got a problem with our Fencing Technologies SG12 (Leon Paul Small FIE) box which I've never seen before. The box does not recognise any commands from the remote. The remote seems to be...

This year for the Welsh Individuals we are trying a combination of both national ranking and internal university rankings. Those with national rankings get it, others are seeded 901, 902, 903 etc....

Hopefully all fencers at the larger universities in Wales will have heard about this year's championships now (or will do so soon). I'm trying to catch those at the smaller institutes (such as...

There are results from the first round for all Brits and top seeds at http://www.twitter.com/britishfencing some Brits going really well. More detail a http://www.twitter.com/events4bf

Top Brits...

and the rest
WE - 61
WS - 52
MS - 77

I think these are all correct but as I have just done them from the rankings there is probably a small error either way

Well here are the first of the 'correct' NIFs:

WF - 60
MF - 14 (still 1/4 entry)
ME - 40

Sorry I should have been clearer, by 'quickly' I meant roughly as I just ran the post check-in reports through a bit of code. Will update for true NIF when I get a chance (although that might not be...

I have quickly worked out the NIF for all the events and they are as follows:

MF - 14*
ME - 44
MS - 73
WF - 59
WE - 70**
WS - 60

* 1/4 entry (56/4), as NIF on ranking is 9 :(

The timings were changed in 2005 (around September I seem to remember). Both changes were brought in at the same time.

Please get the piste lights down, the poor girl deserves here privacy

Firstly thank you to everyone who turned up to fence or spectate and especially to those who organised teams. Thank you to the teams for being understand and patient waiting for people who were...

If you have a 'modelzone' shop near you they stock it across all their branches.

You should use small amounts of low viscosity super glue. The best one I have come across is the pink version of Zap which you should be able to by at most model shops. You don't want a very stiff or...

Yes, the Leon Paul Spartan does.

Bristol Men's II are still in Western Conference as are the Women. Men's I are premier.

The list of entries that have not provided confirmed BF numbers has gone to unions today. I believe this people need to address this BEFORE the event.

None that I know of. Some competitions may require the bib to have a date (in the form of M2012 for 2012) on it and for that date for be within a certain number of years old. However for most locals...

I would say that, if priced right, there could be a good market in university clubs for this box and so both of these features would be great. The first for matches where you have a left hander on...

Could you also make sure you include: weapon and ranking.

Thanks,
Tom

Anyone interested in being selected should see this thread. I will also be emailing clubs/unions to try and reach as many people as possible.
