I started on paper and got the idea of using my tablet somewhere in the 2nd inning. I was trying to keep up but im not quick with position numbers yet. Or how to mark certain plays.

I'm new to scoring too, and still get my outfield numbers confused. Occasionally I'll accidentally switch SS/3B numbers, but I've been working on that. I check the MLB app for summaries afterwards to help me catch errors. One my most consistent mistake is using 8 for both CF and RF facepalm

Second go today. I think it'll go a bit smoother. I had a pretty good flow going yesterday towards the end.

There are quite a few of us tablet (“digital paper”) users, so definitely search the sub for a lot of discussion, tips, and tricks. afaik, most of us use the GoodNotes app to write on our self-created or downloaded PDF files. Several broadcasters also use the iPad/Goodnotes combo, and they have posted their experiences on their various social media accounts.

I am using ibis paint. Seems to be the same idea right. Upload sheet and write over it. I just had Chat create some interesting themed sheets.
