What is Marksman Cricket?

Marksman Cricket is DartConnect's advanced cricket mode, speeding up scorekeeping with buttons for doubles and triples, and also tracking advanced cricket statistics such as "Target %" and "Bull & Trip %".

Because of this, it is important to input scores that exactly match the darts that are thrown.

Double & Triple Buttons?

In Marksman Cricket, each number is flanked by a Double and a Triple button. Tap these buttons ONLY for darts that hit triples and doubles.

Three taps per turn!

Marksman only accepts up to three taps per turn, one for each dart. Tap the button that EXACTLY matches what each dart hits. Use the # Button for darts that hit a single, use the

button for darts that hit a triple and use the

button for darts that hit a double.

D and T Buttons are NOT shortcuts!

It is INCORRECT to hit the

button if three single marks are hit, same with the

button for 2 marks. Only use the button for Triples and the Button for Doubles. If you use either button as a shortcut, DartConnect will record that as a Triple or Double hit instead of single marks.

Why is this important?

Marksman Cricket tracks every dart, calculating MPR and advanced stats that are only possible with DartConnect such as Target % and Triple & Bull %.

What is MPR?

MPR is an acronym for "Marks Per Round", the Cricket equivalent to "Points Per Round" in 501. Essentially, this means how many times you "score" in a round. In some parts of the country this is also known as "hits", "counts" or a "round of #". Regardless, if your darts connect with an open target, then you will mark the scoreboard with a slash, circle or points, contributing to your Marks Per Round Average for the leg.

What is Target %?

How many of your darts hit a valid, open target? If your target % is 60%, then 40% of your darts have missed. This is a strong indicator of your consistency, as a player. For instance, if you throw 3 single 20's, your target % for that turn is 100%. If you throw 1 triple 20, but the other two darts are wide, then you your target % is 33%.

Either way, you Marks per Round are 3.0, but how you achieved them, is very different.

What is Bull & Trip %?

Bulls and triples are the "skill shots" of cricket. For most players, it is an accomplishment. For elite players, they are the primary targets. Whether you are a clutch shooter or elite player, you know what percent of your shooting is hitting the big targets.
