Round Robin Calendar. This saves all pairings in a round-robin tournament to the file pairsRR.txt. Add external pairing engine. See Appendix N. Regenerate pairing number. Vega assigns to each late entrant a progressive pairing number (ID) irrespective of his rating. This will not affect the pairing but may be annoying to see a strong player at bottom of the cross table. In this case this option permit reassignment of the pairing number to all players. Print Swiss cards: print the Swiss pairing card that can be used in case of manual pairing. If printed at round 1 the cards will be empty, otherwise they will contain all data known at the current round. R: round; C: color; F: floater history according to the selected Swiss system (▼=downfloater, ▲=upfloater); OPP: opponent id number; Res: round result; Score: score at the given round; Ex: this coloumn must be filled by the arbiter extra data useful for the next pairing, for example the expected color and/or fictious points in case of accelerated Swiss system. WWW Settings. Throughout the tournament, Vega generates Web content in HTML format, in a directory called www (as a subdirectory of the working directory). In this directory, the site home page is a file called index.html. In this directory Vega even generates a pgn template (skeleton) file for each round. NOTE: The user must place the completed pgn file in a different directory to prevent Vega overwriting it! The user that wants to publish the site must publish on a server all the files present in www. The web content is automatically updated by Vega while the tournament proceeds. The user can tune the site using WWW Settings from the Extra menu. 20
