Poängberäkning deluxe - Fishy Live - Fisketävlingar online

We have built what we believe is the world's most complete and best scoring system for fishing competitions like yours. Not just in theory, but where it actually counts, in the middle of a competition when things don't go exactly according to plan.

The essence of any fishing competition is simple to understand but difficult to implement in practice: the results must be fair, transparent and trustworthy. At the same time, many organizers want to be able to shape the competition exactly according to their own rules, whether it is a simple club competition or a national championship.

Fishy Live is built for just this. The system contains a very powerful and flexible calculation engine that can handle basically any competition format, without you having to build special solutions or handle anything manually.

Several ways to define what counts

A fundamental part of any competition is how a catch is scored. Fishy Live gives you several options:

Length-based score in centimeters
Weight-based score in grams
Combined score where both length and weight are counted
Species hunt where each approved fish gives one point

This means that you can create competitions with completely different characters. A traditional catch & release competition where length is the deciding factor. A trolling competition where weight is most important. Or a family competition where the goal is to get as many different species as possible.

You can also separate how points are calculated from how they are displayed. For example, a race can be ranked by distance but presented as “points” in the results list, making it easier to communicate with participants and the audience.

A consistent and predictable calculation model

All results in Fishy Live are calculated through a fixed and clear process. The system first collects all approved catches, then applies rules and restrictions, and then calculates the final result.

This provides three important properties:

The same data always produces the same results
No random differences arise
The results can always be checked afterwards

This means that you as the organizer avoid manual corrections and that participants can feel secure that the system treats everyone equally.

Full control over competition rules

Fishy Live gives you detailed control over how the competition will work in practice.

For example, you can control:

How many fish are counted per team?
How many fish per day are allowed to be counted
How many fish per species can be counted?
Whether restrictions apply per day or for the entire competition

This makes it possible to create very different types of competitions.

Example:

A competition where only the top 5 fishermen per team count
A multi-day competition where a maximum of 3 fish per day are counted
A species-focused competition where each species can only be counted once
A competition where some species are restricted more severely than others

This not only controls the outcome, but also how the participants fish. The rules shape the strategy.

Species multipliers and bonus points

If you want to influence which species are prioritized, you can use multipliers.

For example:

Perch gives double points
Pike gives normal points
A certain species can be set to zero and thus not counted at all

This is often used to create more balanced competitions or to highlight species that are otherwise caught less frequently.

You can also add a fixed bonus point per fish. This makes even smaller fish count and can be a great way to make the competition more inclusive, especially in wide or family competitions.

Multi-day competitions with fair results

In competitions that span multiple days, a challenge often arises. A single bad day, perhaps due to weather, can determine the entire outcome.

Fishy Live solves this by letting you choose how the days are counted:

All days count
Only the best days count

The system automatically calculates which days yield the highest total points for each team. This means that the results are fairer and better reflect actual performance over time.

In addition, a clear breakdown per day is shown, so that both organizers and participants can understand how the results have been built up.

Clear rules in case of a tie

Ties are common in fishing competitions, especially when many teams participate.

Fishy Live offers several ways to determine placement:

Biggest fish
Reserve fish not counted in the total
Who reached their score first?
Who reported their first fish first?

The method where reserve fish are also counted is particularly important. It means that the entire catch is included in the assessment, not just the fish that happen to be included in the final score.

It provides a deeper and fairer comparison between teams.

Scoreboards on multiple levels simultaneously

A great strength of Fishy Live is that the system does not just provide one results list, but several in parallel.

You get:

A master list for teams
Separate lists for each class
Individual lists in team competitions
A top list of the biggest fish

This means that different types of achievements can be highlighted simultaneously.

One team can win the team competition, while an individual participant from another team can win individually. Meanwhile, a third participant can take home the prize for the largest fish.

Multiple competitions in the same competition

The flexible class system makes it possible to create what in practice will be multiple competitions within the same event.

You can divide the participants into classes, for example:

Junior, Senior and Veteran
Pro and Amateur
Women's class and open class
Kayak and boat

But what really makes a difference is that each class can have its own rules.

Example:

The junior class only counts their top 3 fish.
The amateur class has no species restrictions.
The professional class has stricter rules and more fish are counted.
A women's class has its own individual ranking

This allows you to customize the contest for different target groups without having to create multiple separate contests.

Everything happens within the same structure, with the same reporting and the same system.

Top list for biggest fish

In addition to the regular leaderboards, there is a special leaderboard for the biggest fish.

It works differently:

Each fish is ranked individually
No restrictions or caps apply
The same person may appear multiple times

This is perfect for highlighting individual achievements and creating extra excitement in the competition.

For example, you can have a team competition where total points are the deciding factor, while also awarding a separate prize for the largest pike.

Full transparency and traceability

All results in the system are traceable.

You can see:

How the score is calculated
What rules have been used?
What the position looked like at different times

The system saves a history of results, making it possible to go back and analyze the competition afterwards.

This is especially important in larger competitions where questions or discussions may arise.

Statistics and analysis

Fishy Live not only delivers results, but also insights. You get access to statistics that show:

Biggest fishes
Most active teams
How catches are distributed between species
Slice size and variation

Fish are also automatically categorized into size classes, making it easier to analyze the results visually.

This is valuable both for the organizer and for sponsors who want to understand the outcome of the competition.

Aggregate results across multiple competitions

Fishy Live not only handles individual competitions, but also entire series and tournaments. Multiple competitions can be linked together to create a common overall scoreboard where results from each competition are automatically added up.

For example, you can:

Summarize points across multiple competitions
Count only the best results (e.g. best 3 out of 5 heats)
Using placement points per competition (e.g. 100 points for win, 90 for second place)

This makes it possible to organize everything from local club series to national championships with multiple competitions, where the overall performance over time determines the final result.

Just like in an individual competition, these compilations are also updated automatically, without manual management.

Score history – full transparency and traceability

One of the most powerful features of the system is the built-in score history with timestamps. Every change in the competition is saved automatically – every approved catch, every adjustment and every update to the leaderboard.

This means that you can go back and see exactly how the competition developed over time. Who was leading after the first hour? When was the decision made? How did the top battle change in the last hour? All of this is documented.

For you as an organizer, this provides several important advantages:

Full transparency during discussions or protests
Traceability – you can always show what happened and when
Security in the result – nothing is “magical”, everything can be followed
Analysis capabilities for future competitions

Example: If two teams are in dispute over the final score, you can easily show exactly when each team reached their final score, which catches were counted, and how the tie-breaker was decided.

This means that the result is not only correct, it is also explainable and defensible, which is crucial in serious competition contexts.

Darkness mode – control over when the result is revealed

In many competitions there is a need to be able to control when the result is publicly displayed. This is where dark mode comes in.

When darkness mode is active, the system continues to function as usual in the background. Catches are reported, judges approve, and points are calculated continuously, but the leaderboard is hidden from participants and the audience.

This gives you as the organizer full control over the competition's dramaturgy and ending.

Common uses:

Last hour of the competition – avoid teams fishing tactically based on current position
Before the awards ceremony – build excitement for the reveal
In case of uncertainty – allow time to double-check reports before results are published

Example: You activate darkness mode in the last hour. The teams continue to fish and report, but no one knows exactly how they are doing. When the competition is over and everything is checked, you exit darkness mode and the entire leaderboard is displayed immediately, complete and updated.

It is important to understand that this is not a “pause” in the system. All calculations are done in real time at all times. The only thing that changes is visibility.

This provides a unique combination of:

Technical continuity – no gaps in data or calculation
Organizer control – you decide exactly when the result is displayed
Better experience – for both participants and audience

Stable and reliable

All calculations are done automatically and updated in real time.

The system is built to:

Manage many participants at the same time
Provide consistent results
Operate stably even under load

As an organizer, you don't need to think about when or how results should be counted. It happens continuously in the background.

The result: a race to trust

Ultimately, it's all about trust.

Participants must feel that:

The rules are clear
The results are correct.
Everyone is treated equally

Fishy Live gives you the tools to create just that.

You get a system that can handle both simplicity and complexity, without being difficult to use. A system that lets you focus on the competition, not on the administration behind it.

No tool will make fishing competitions completely problem-free, but the right system can make a big difference when it really counts. The goal here is to give you stability and overview, so that points, results and structure are not what fall when the pressure increases. Use this as a foundation, adapt it to your own competitions and build on what works best in practice. Over time, you will find a way of working that makes everything smoother, both for you as the organizer and for the participants.
