Discard rules (RRS A2.1)

Discard Rules define conditional profiles for automatically discarding a boat's worst scores from its series total — the more races completed, the more may be discarded.

Steps

  1. Open the event, go to Discard Rules (event page → More menu).
  2. Add Rule: set the minimum completed races the discard applies at, and the discard count (how many worst scores to drop once that threshold is reached).
  3. Optionally set a target coefficient filter, so the rule only discards races carrying that exact coefficient (leave empty to apply to all races).
  4. Add more rules for higher thresholds (e.g. discard 1 after 4 races, discard 2 after 8).

What can never be discarded

DNE (disqualification not excludable) penalties are always protected from discarding by the scoring engine, regardless of the rules configured here.
