Yeah, that's pretty mind-numbing to review. The point is that if someone really wanted to do a large universe, they could print this stuff out, follow along slowly and experiment until they found a good mix for what they want to do.

I used to use the scheduler in a much more complicated way where I divided the ranked fighters into four groups that could be sorted out through the filters and pitted these segments against each other; then I divided the young fighters up into those with 5 and less fights and those with 6-10 fights and pitted them against two different levels of competition that could be extracted with the scheduler. It all got to be way too much.

What I posted gets close to what I want and believe it or not is far more simplistic than what I was doing six months ago.

It should be pointed out though that you can do just about anything with the scheduler and if Andreas could just add a few more options that I have suggested (and very importantly - a template creator for the auto-scheduler that can be saved) we could all do wild things with it and never use a spreadsheet again.
