24-Teams, 140 games, no Interleague Schedule needed

JDOldSchool · 12-23-2012, 04:19 AM

I just switched to OOTP13, expanded from 20 to 24 teams, and played a season without even considering that the schedule would be a problem for me. Turns out, even though I do NOT have the Interleague box checked, the schedule being used (ILN_BGY_G140_T8_C_h2005.lsdl) still scheduled interleague series. It appears that each team has one team in the other league they play a few times each year, and it changes each season.

Is there a schedule out there I can use that will give me something close to a balanced schedule (I realize 140/11 doesn't come out to an equal number)? I'd even settle for a schedule in which teams plays a higher percentage of games in division (The math works best with 16 games per team in the division, 10 in the other division).

Does this schedule exist? I know 140 games is a bit of a unique schedule to play. I really don't want to change that, but I would rather add or subtract a couple games than have interleague play.

Any help would be much appreciated.

2 divisions of 6 is pretty easy to figure out. If you want a balanced or near-balanced schedule, 142 games works better than 140 (though you could use 143 if you don't mind one division getting 77 home games and the other division getting 76.)
