Two simple schedule requests

jduteau · 04-29-2009, 10:53 PM

I have what I hope are two simple schedule requests.
First is for a 1SL/1D/6T league. 160 games (so 32 games against each opponent). I'd like each team to have 3-4 doubleheaders per month. No Sunday baseball.

Second is for a 1SL/1D/8T league. 140 games (20 games against each opponent). Similar doubleheaders as above and again no Sunday Baseball.

Thanks in advance,

Jean Duteau

I just saw that there is a 8-team 140 game schedule that comes with the game, but I'd rather have a schedule that doesn't have Sunday baseball (and has more doubleheaders).

What I was planning to do was work from existing schedules and move the Sunday games, which would also help build some of the doubleheaders. But a key question is, are you okay with there being few offdays besides those Sundays?

Yes. The offdays don't have to always be Sundays.

I was just looking at the Major League schedules for 1903. I was thinking of breaking that ml schedule into two parts. Some of the teams did have Sunday baseball though, so I was going to do what you were planning and just move those. But I quickly realized, once I started, that 1903 might have been too hectic of a schedule - there was a ton of rain in the northeast at the start of that season, so there are a bunch of rainouts that I don't really want to deal with.

Thanks in advance,

Jean
