Hide results/standings until the end of the competition

Question

It is now possible to hide the ranking (top 10) for a period of 30 minutes per category. In a competition with > 20 categories, this is an impossible task to keep track of. Is it possible to keep the top 10 hidden without this limit? And that the top 10 becomes available again after activation, award ceremony or end of competition?

Answer 1

We have deliberately chosen to automatically show Leaderboards again after 30 minutes, so that an organization cannot forget to reopen the Leaderboards, which means that no Leaderboards are shown for hours.
Athletes and trainers are usually not happy with Leaderboards being temporarily hidden; they would prefer the option to disappear altogether. Organizations, on the other hand, sometimes prefer to keep a Leaderboard hidden for hours until an award ceremony.

To encourage organizations not to hide leaderboards for too long, we have set the time limit at 30 minutes, which you can extend yourself if you wish. We hope this will encourage organizations to consider the athletes and hold their award ceremonies as quickly as possible.

I can understand this to a certain extent, but we actually see a disadvantage in making the leaderboards available before the competition is actually over. Particularly in pupil and junior competitions, parents look on the internet to see how their child has performed and if it is 'not good enough', they immediately run home. When no leaderboards are available, a larger group will stick around until the award ceremony. And it is nice that when you hand out diplomas and medals/cups, there are still children who you can make happy. I know this problem is caused by the parents, but it is a fact that this happens. And that was not/less for Athletics.app...
