Just a slight issue I have. The leaderboards are still showing me in Div. 3 Bronze. I should be in Div. 3 Silver.

You're still bronze in the official rankings here: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=111988
When you're silver in that thread, you are automatically updated on the board.

It was the same with my details, showing Silver untill I posted new splits a day or so after.
Leaderboard then updated showing off my gold cup. I would say before you get Joost or Kevin spending time on this, take the BMW at London for a quick spin, any time will do, see if the LB updates the right info. 👍
Phillip.

The splits use the 'historical' data for the divisions.
This means that the split will retain the division you had (in the official registry thread) at the time you posted the splits.
So if you are promoted (and the promotion thread is updated(!)), your new splits will have the new division.
But be aware that Fetchbot only fetches the new divisions once a day at 0:00. So if you post splits 24 hours after the promotion thread is updated your new division will be shown. But if you'd post new splits after the division thread has just been updated, your old div will probably be shown.

Its counting the fastest sector 1 (= Split 1) and sector 2 (= Sector) together.
So fastest Sector 1 = 0'14.139
So fastest Sector 2 = 0'13.594
So fastest Overall = 0'27.733
Split 2 isn't the time, the player needs IN second sector, it's the time from start line to the END of the second sector.
Hope you understood, my english is really cr**

Please could you have a look at the leaderboard for week 95 as when you click on my name it shows that I have a 3rd place in my division but I know that I actually came 4th.
Many thanks
Many thanks

I've just noticed the same thing, I'm in 2nd according to the leaderboard when GTP_accessraider actually got 2nd & I was 3rd.

The problem is accessraiders time, it's in the results as 'gtp_' (notice the lower case) instead of 'GTP_', so fetchbot didn't parse the time correctly moving you guys one place up.
I'll have to fix the parsing and reimport the results for that week. I'll post here when it's been fixed.

Just reading Maz's post saying how annoying it is when people post splits but don't submit a time and I had a thought.
It may be too much of a re-design, but anywho. Make it so that people post splits and times on to the WRS board, but the splits are only shown to the public and admins have access to the final times, which you could format so that it would be easy for the WRS admins to then post the results?
Just take those laps as submitted rather than having to go through the current PM process.

Ideally, the submission process in the future will be completely automated, which would allow for split updates to be taken at the same time. For this to work, we'd need to allow multiple submissions per week, with only the last one being official.
But this is only possible if we automate the process.

Nice ideas, guys 👍 and I can imagine why Dan would like the submission process to be more automated and less handywork 
Talked to Joost the other day in the flesh and briefly touched on this subject. It is something that could be done, tho with a huge effort in time and problems with the GF.
Problem is that in the coming period GT5 is happening and handling multiple combos is high on the list of priorities as well.
So for 2010 it's idle hope to think that automated submissions can even be started. What CAN be done, especially by IT-minded guys like Nige and Dan
is concocting a plan how automated submissions could be worked out. This would help a lot in minimising the prep time for the project.
Are there any other software engineers available within WRS to help out?
