arbiter.net question

[Back In The Saddle]

There is also another, top secret, zip code field, which only the assigner can access, that is used when calculating your distance to game sites for auto-assigning. Somehow mine got set to another state (perhaps I ticked off my assigner? ), and when I got assigned games, I was due some very hefty mileage checks.

I have also been told that the algorithm for figuring mileage uses a fixed point within the zip code. In my case, that fixed point is many miles farther. I normally mapquest and google maps my journey, and pass that number along to the school. But some schools just use the number from the arbiter, and my check is a little bigger than normal. Can't help 'em out if they don't want the help, I guess.
