For the lower classes it is less traumatic to wait until the course has been completed. The competitor is positioned so that all relevant markers are visible and their location confirmed. A correctly orientated map is handed to, or placed for, the competitor as a stopwatch is started. This has one circle, with the control description in the correct orientation for reading, above this circle. Care in leaving relevant map detail is required.
Timing is stopped when a clear answer is indicated.
A maximum of one minute is allowed, with a warning at 50 seconds. A correct answer scores One point in 1-60 seconds, times being rounded up to whole seconds. A wrong answer incurs a penalty of 60 seconds. No answer, scores no point and 120 seconds. Both time and answer are recorded.
