Ref: IPSC Combined Competition Rules

Situationsuccessfully : A competitor successfully shot a first discipline in IPSC and then was DQ’ed in the second discipline.

Rule: Chapter 6, 6.2.6 of the Combined Competition Rules - Six Disciplines specifies that a DQ is not retroactive with respect to complete scores from another Division.

6.2.6 A disqualification incurred by a competitor, at any time during a match, will prevent the competitor from further participation in the match including any subsequent attempts in another Division. However, this is not retroactive. Any previous and complete scores from another Division will be entered into match results for recognition and awards in that Division.

Question: Is there a way for a member to successfully complete a match under their first shot discipline and then after being DQ’ed for a second later discipline successfully show in PractiScore both Discipline results (one successful with scores and the second as a DQ? Ie shot Handgun and successfully completed the match (Scores show in PractiScore)… then later shot PCC and was DQ’ed (shows DQ’ed for that Discipline only)?

@Martin_Cashin if you are asking about situation when multiple IPSC disciplines are being run in the same match scored in the PractiScore app (same stages and run at the same time). E.g. HG, PCC and MR are co-hosted quite often.

From the PractiScore’s point of view, a person shooting two disciplines (or even multiple divisions) - are two different competitors. Their DQs and all other things are completely independent from each other. If your club, sport or local rules preventing a person from continuing that match in another discipline after a DQ - it won’t be handled automatically by the app and your match staff (RM, stats, etc) will have to take any necessary actions.

I guess the solution may then be simpler than I thought @euxx . I should add the competitor twice (once per division discipline) and the results would then display both the favourable results and the DQ.

@Martin_Cashin corrected it for you…
