• [ ] How Manager models multi-day events (separate event per stage vs. linked events — whichever Manager uses)
• [ ] Setting up stages: creating the event(s), linking them, shared competitor lists
• [ ] Carrying results forward between stages
• [ ] Chase / pursuit starts — computing day-2 start times from day-1 results
• [ ] What data is shared across stages (competitors, clubs, classes) vs. what's stage-specific (courses, punches, downloads)
• [ ] Publishing combined / overall results across stages
• [ ] Handling a competitor who enters only some stages (DNS for a stage, partial results)
• [ ] Common mistakes: wrong stage selected, competitor registered in one stage but not another
