Why does the C2 ranking list hardly ever get updated??
Just a PROBING QUESTION

No, the probing question is why I'm idiot enough to keep the K1W, K1M and C1 lists so up to date.
C2 is extra fiddly because they all race at two divisons' events and the points calculation is so ornate. So I depend on lists from the ranking compiler, and I'm not going to do things any other way.

Nick,
I really appreciate this website, it's become an absolutely invaluable tool for anyone involved in slalom and we all rely on it. I appreciate it takes you a lot of work and that you do it all in your spare time, so top respect. Anytime you're in the pub with me mate, I'm buying.
Paul

Nick,
I'm with Paul on this, have another pint.
This is a fantastic resource for the paddler and non paddler interested in Slalom. I feel this site makes you feel more involved in the whole Slalom community, with results, rankings, event news (UK and abroad), and much more that is so up to date. This is a fantastic use of the internet and your work behind scenes is much appreciated.
Cheers,
Pete.

I didn't mean to be rude but you have to admit that if it still hasnt been updated for 2 months, there must be something going wrong somewhere along the line. It's a question asked by many I'm just the only one who has actually put it forward. Don't shoot the messenger!
Phatty!

Nick,
I'll buy you a pint as well.
Your website /ranking lists are vital for the sport.
If you see bib 113 Div1 K1M, remember to ask for a drink.

Thanks Nick, I'd buy you a pint now as well but its against the law for me to be served alcohol for another 2 years! :p
Phatty!
