Use timer settings to change tie-breaking method and create custom names for split points.

Tie Breaking: To change tie-breaking method, click on the settings tab and select the appropriate tie breaking procedure from the dropdown

• Traditional: 6th runner from each team is used to break the tie.  The athlete with the lowest score between the two teams wins the tie breaker
• Head to head: The first 5 runners are compared between the tied teams.  The team who wins the most head to head matchups (at least 3 out of 5) wins the tie breaker.

• None: ties are left unchanged.
