IMPORTANT - Mercy Rule in Swimmingly

When using Swimmingly, make sure the Mercy Rule is set correctly - watch very short video! to find out how.

Mercy Rule means max 2 swimmers per club score in an event, next swimmer (if any) on other team gets 3rd place point.
No team may score 3 places in an event.


This Rule is NOT preset in Swimmingly unless you set in a specific way.
If you have problem setting it up, make third place swimmer (for team also placing 1st & 2nd) UNofficial/Exhibition so points scored will be correct.
