Look I wouldn't say that the new scoring system is crap but I will say that AMF's planning and implementation of the system has been very poorly handled.
The fact league bowlers can't do simple things like correct scores, alter bowling lineups, jump a bowler, put in a blind score, pacer etc, or re - rack a deck means the system is definately below a league standard system. The fact that attempting even one of the normal minor changes league bowlers used to routinely make using the old system causes this new system to go haywire suggests that the system has been poorly put together.
I think that there was not a thorough investigation on the significant impact on league bowlers included in the planning for the systems setup and implementation.
It seems that there has only been consideration given to having control of the social bowler and the league bowler who in 99% of the case knows how to do most of the changes I mentioned above has been treated as if they are idiots.
My opinion is this sytem as currently implemented is totally unacceptable and changes need to be made to allow league bowlers to make the mentioned changes again to avoid the ridiculous delays the new system is causing during league play.
As a treasurer who must leave the lanes to pay the bowling fees to the bowl I find the system a joke and can't believe it was put in place as it was.
Also I don't think consideration was made on the impact to the additional workload this creates for counter staff who are busy providing service. The counter is left unattended for lengthy periods and thus not only do league bowlers get frustrated with further delays but social bowlers get fed up with waiting and simply add to the number of walk in / walk outs.
If it was done in the company that i work for (I have worked in IT for over 6 years) the people would have been sacked on the spot.
