Quasi-NFL hybrid schedule request

I am hoping someone can help me out with this request. I am creating an NFL style structure with 32 teams/2 SL/4D/4T for 160 games.

An NFL team plays 16 games with 2 against each member in their division, 1 against every member in another division in their conference, 1 against every member in a division from the other conference, and 1 game against a member in each of the other divisions within your conference.

I'd like to keep the same structure except multiplied by 10.

For this schedule, I'd like to have :

- 5 game series with two off days after each series. That should make for 32 game weeks.(160 games)
- Each team should play 4 series, 2H/2A, against the 3 other teams in their division(60 games)
- 2 series, 1H/1A, against each member of a division within their subleague and one division from the other subleague(80 games)
- 2 series, 1H/1A, against a team from each division(other than the ones from before) within its subleague (20 games)

The divisions should rotate every year, but I'm not sure how ootp handles that. I would want an all-star game but not until after the regular season.

Huge thanks to anyone that can do this

An ASG after the regular season is iffy to deal with, because of its effect on the postseason schedule.

Anyway, this can be done trivially by editing the 2011 NFL schedule and removing the bye week. (It has to be specifically 2011 because no other season's bye week layout works out right.) I'll get to work on it.

Complication with getting the schedule rotation to work, as in-conference games can't rotate properly.

Early beta version of the year 1 schedule (2011 equivalent)

The schedule looks great!! But as you said, it's not rotating at all. Thank you very much for working on this!

Is it critical that the schedule be exactly a doubled version of an NFL schedule? It seems more sensible to have every team play all 12 of their subleague opponents once, and 8 interleague opponents once, instead of playing 6 of 12 subleague opponents and 4 interleague opponents twice each. Then you wouldn't have to worry about rotation nearly as much.

This was an opportunity to work on rotation/shuffling, so I went for it whole hog.

Code:

#

# 32 team schedule, 160 games

# Designed for the following configuration:

# 2 subleagues, each with 4 division of 4 teams

#

#

# 20 games against 3 other teams in division (10H/10A)

# 10 games against 4 teams in one other division in subleague (5H/5A)

# 10 games against 1 team in each of other two divisions in subleague (5H/5A)

# 10 games against 4 teams in one other division in other subleague (5H/5A)

#

#

# Total of 48 schedules in this family, designated with "01" through "48"

# Family is in NFL schedule style that allows rotation through...

# * other league divisions against whom play all 4 teams (3-year cycle)

# * other interleague divisions against whom play all 4 teams (4-year cycle)

# There is also rotation of which single teams played interdivision

#

# Always play the same type of opponent at same time during schedule

# E.g., season begins with weeks of division, then interdivision, then interleague

# And season always ends with two weeks of division games

#

# Over totality of 48 schedules...

# 960 games against 3 other teams in division (480H/480A)

# 240 games against 12 other teams in division (120H/120A)

# 120 games against 16 other teams in division (60H/60A)

#

# 

# All games are in 5-games series spanning Wed-Sun

# Mon & Tue always offday for all team

#

# Homestands and roadtrips as long as 15 games

#

# All game times set at 7:05pm

#

# Season begins first Wednesday of April

# Season ends early/mid-November

# Season spans 222 days

#

# No All-Star Game set

That is amazing!! Thank you so much for that!

There's 48 files, I assume each year I'd need to import the next one down? Is there a way to have it import automatically? Again, this is great!

The schedules should rotate automatically.

How exactly would I set it up to auto rotate?
