Creation of an Excel file for a bowling championship

Solved

 tonyynot -
Hello, I would like to create a file, but I have no idea how to structure it.

The goal would be to rank the different players.

We play every Thursday and I would like to award the 1st place 20 points, the 2nd place 19 points, etc., knowing that some players will not be present from one Thursday to the next.

The goal is for me to input the results of each player and for the ranking to be done automatically, with points accumulating from week to week.

Any ideas on how to approach this?

    Hi there :-)

    I'm not an Excel whiz, but I would be interested in helping you out :-)

    If I understand correctly, you would like:
    - 1 page with the current contest ranking
    - 1 page for the recap of points week/me/year...
    ?

    We would need to know the number of players, etc...
    If you agree, I can do it and it will help me review my Excel functions :-)

    Message me privately if you agree :-)

    I can't manage to write in private.
    There are about 30 players, but not all 30 are necessarily present each time.
    The goal would be to say that on this day, a certain player scored 20 points, 19, 18, 17, etc.
    And in another table, it shows the total points over the course of the days.

    Thank you for your responses, Philou I was inspired by your table but your macro does not work with Excel 2007

    Here is my file, how can I sort automatically in the individual ranking?

    Hello

    Your file with a macro for sorting will require you to answer yes to the question to accept macros if you trust me

      Result: "Unable to run the macro. It may be unavailable or all macros may be disabled."

      However, it has never asked me to enable them.

      Nifty, it's working. I've found the settings to enable macros. Are the hacking risks for my Excel files or just this one? Because I have some that are quite confidential.

    Thank you, however, it's impossible for me to follow your instructions because I have version 2007 and not 2003.

    So now if you still want to help me, Philou, it's even more complex to further improve the file. I've created a sheet "Daily Results" where I enter the 3 parts that each person has done, from which it calculates the average, the total series (total of the 3 parts), and again I would like to be able to create the ranking based on the results and automatically assign points.

    And the best would be for these points to be automatically entered in the table of the "Results" sheet.

    I hope I'm clear enough ^^

    Thank you for your help if it's possible. After that, I'll be almost at my goal ^^

    perfect but what I also wanted was a sort button for the first name and the same for the ranking.

    and also the other thing would be to store on another sheet, for example, the best line for each player. and every time they do better, it overwrites the previous data.

    thanks again

    I looked at the file you sent me back, and I'm a bit lost. In the columns for Dominique, Frédéric, Jean-Pierre, and Manu, there are already values, respectively 20, 20, 17, 20. No matter what values I enter in F8:H23, when I click on 'archives' the points and 'save', these two buttons have the same function of entering the values 20, 20, 17, 20 even though I've input others. Another bug, the 'sort individual ranking' button in the results sheet deletes the entire table... strange.

      Hello tonyynot

      I think you haven't looked closely, the archives macro copies the best result K8:K23 of the series and stores it in J8:J23
      the save button copies the best result stored in J8:J23 to the results sheet, it's not the same
      But maybe that's not what you want?
      Tell me the reasoning you want so I can adapt the procedure, it might not be the series results you want but the ranking. I'm waiting for your information.

    So, the reasoning is that I enter the scores in F8:H23, then I sort the ranking using the ranking sort button, and then I click on the save button so that the points awarded to each player (20 points for 1st place, 19 for 2nd, 18 for 3rd, etc.) are automatically updated in the "results" sheet.

    At the same time, I would like the spreadsheet to keep track of each player's best score from each game, as well as their best streak. If the player does better, it should overwrite the previous data; otherwise, it should not.

    Let me know if I need to clarify anything further.

      Hello tonyynot

      three parts = a series = a ranking = points
      How many series per day? how many series should be kept for the results sheet?
      Should we overwrite the results and keep only one per day?
      Give me as much information as possible so I can see what I can do?

    2. tonyynot
       
      this: three parts = a series = a ranking = points

      it's a series per week, we generally play on Thursdays
      the results of the day can be overwritten, you just need to keep the best part and the best series.

      and another thing that would be nice is to calculate the average of the total parts from all the Thursdays.

      after all the data can be stored on the "buffer" sheet, then I will call on these cells to display what I want.

      anyway, thank you for your help

    I looked at the file, and actually, we don't really understand; the thing to keep in archive is the best part (L1 or L2 or L3):

    for example, on day 1, the person scores 200 in the best part, on day 2 they score 180, so this doesn’t erase the 200 previously archived. On day 3, the best score is 202, so that erases the 200 to replace it with 202

    I would like the same principle for the series

    otherwise, two small things on the side:

    - is it possible to combine the "archive" button and the "save" button into one single button? Because when I click one, it erases all the data, so I have to re-enter them to click the second one

    - on the "results" sheet, the average calculation is done even when a person hasn’t played. For example: Dominique's row, he has only played 2 days, and it divides his points by 4 instead of 2.

      Hello

      The best part or the points for me from L1 to L3 are summed up and based on the ranking gives the assigned points. The best ranking is kept by the button to archive the best score in points which is archived in column J on the file
      You mentioned 200 points but I don't see that on the file so in order to look at how to remove it
      There are 2 buttons because once the three results in L1 L2 L3 are entered in the file, the first button saves in column J the best ranking in points and this result will in turn be recorded on the results sheet; deleting the columns does not interfere at all
      For the average as you were talking about the day, I have indexed the formula on the dates so I will put it on the results
      When you say 1st, 2nd, and 3rd days I think we will need 3 tables like daily results to be able to select the best number of points, which will allow us to save the best result in the results sheet
      Let me know what you think of my idea

    It is normal that you do not see 200, because that is what was entered in L1 and these boxes are overwritten after saving.

    I will give you a concrete example of what I want, after that the formatting and the number of sheets don't matter.

    Player A on 01/01/13 has the lines L1: 180 L2: 190 L3: 200. His series will be: 570 (the sum of the 3).
    From then on, both his best line and his best series should be saved, so respectively 200 and 570.
    Let's say this player finishes 3rd that night, that would give him 17 points (1st gets 20 points, 2nd gets 19, 3rd gets 18 and so on down to the 20th with 0 points, 21st with 0 points, etc.).

    Now player A on 07/01/13 has the lines L1: 150 L2: 150 L3: 210. His series is 510. So for that day, the cell for the best part will be overwritten 200 replaced by 210 and the series is not overwritten because he scored less: 510, the best remains 570.
    That night he finishes 5th, which gives him 15 points. So a total of 32 points.

    There you go, that's the reasoning. There is not much left for the table to be good.

    Hello tonyynot

    Here's the beginning of the solution, you need to tell me what I should do with the information about best line, series, and total points?

    For the best line and the best series, nothing. I will call on the cells to display them later in a separate table. For the total points, it just needs to be stored on the "result" sheet. And then I will also call on the cells to display them in a separate table.

      The total score of the day is example 17 or cumulative 32.
