Schedule request, a bit different

Nzsftbl · 02-22-2015, 04:40 AM

Hello all
I am looking for the following:
2 leagues, 2 divisions in each league, 8 teams each division. Total of 32 teams.
Approx. 120 games, no games on Saturdays, early April - late September.

Each division in each league plays most of its games in its division, 12 versus each team in its division, and plays each team in the opposite division 4 times (opposite = League 1 Division 1 plays League 2 Division 1, and so on)
7X12=84, 8X4=32, total 116 games

If this exists, in the divisional/interleague format at least, please help direct me to the proper schedule. Otherwise - please help!

Thanks

Sorry to "bump," but...can anyone help?
It isn't that difficult for the ones who are good doing this in excel, probably...
Will re-iterate:
2 leagues, 2 divisions, 8 teams in each division
Most games are within the division (12 times each, 7X12=84)
What is a bit more difficult - the interleague is L1D1 vs L2D1 only (4 times each); and L1D2 vs L2D2.
Ie Teams 1 thru 8 play teams 17 thru 24
Teams 9 thru 16 play teams 25 thru 32

Can anyone be of assistance?
Thanks in advance

I can start this in a few days, once I get all set with burke's schedule. This schedule looks pretty straight forward.

thehip41 · 03-06-2015, 09:38 AM

I want to ask a few questions before I get started. I see you want all teams to play 12 games vs. the other 7 teams in the division. That's 84 games.

In the original post you want approx 120 games.

That leaves 36 games to schedule. In the second post you want L1D1 to play L2D1 teams 4 times each.

That's 8x4 = 32.

Lets look at team 1.

Team 1 plays teams 2-8 (12 times) = 84
Team 1 plays teams 17-24 (4 times (interleague) = 32

That leaves 4 games. Team 1 hasn't played any of the other teams in L1D2.

Did you mean this?

Division 1 plays all division 1 teams 12 times 84 games
Division 1 plays all division 2 teams 4 times (8teams x 4 games) 32 games.

Division 1 plays interleague games 4-?? total

Let me know exactly who you want to play whom and I can get going on it.

Exactly. OK, I'll explain
League X has 2 subleagues, a north and a south.
I would like to expand League X by 16 teams. 8 new south, 8 new north.
All these teams are part of a pro/rel league. The 16 teams to add would be a lower league; the 16 existing would be a higher league.
So in order to keep the pro/rel as part of the league:
Each division plays 84 games within its division (12 X 7).
The top 8 in the north would play 32 games (4 X 8) vs the top 8 in the south; the bottom 8 in the north would play 32 games (4 X 8) vs the bottom 8 in the south.
Total of 116 games.

I need some numbers with this.

Teams 1-8 are in the Top Division North.

Where are 9-16
17-24
25-32

Tell me what games teams 1-8 are playing. I know teams 1-8 play each other 12 times each. Who else does team 1-8 play.

Also, can you give me a listing of who is in each sub league and division, like this:

Subleague 1

Division 1
----------
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8

Division 2
----------

Subleague 2
Division 1
--------
x
x
x
x
x
x
x
x

Division 2
-----------

I can make this schedule, I just dont know where everyone is right now.

I think I got it:

SL1
D1
---
1-8

D2
----
9-16

SL2
---
D1
17-24

D2
25-32

Team 1 would play teams 2-8 (12 times each) 84
Team 1 will play teams 17-24 (4 times each) 32

Team 1 plays 116 games, and thats it.

If this is correct, I'm good to go.

I am about 90% done.

What start times do you want. I usually randomize between 1:05 and 7:05.

Nzsftbl · 03-10-2015, 07:14 PM

Most games with a 1:30 start time; a number (2 each day? 5 every 2 days? Not really sure) with a 5:00 start time.
All games on Fridays start at 1:30

thehip41 · 03-11-2015, 08:53 AM

I set up a random number generator in excel, 17% games are 5:00 and 83% are at 1:30. All games on Friday are 1:30.

I should have it done tonight.
