Calendar list/important dates?

goalieump413 · 03-06-2014, 02:17 PM

I'm a parent of a couple of grade school kids, and we receive (on a weekly basis) a sheet of paper showing all the upcoming events listed by date in a summary format (a column along the left edge of the flyer). This is a nice, compact way of communicating to parents what's upcoming in the school.

I was wondering if there can be a page showing this information in a summary format for BTS. Kind of like...

Date(s)---Event Name---Description---Responsible Person or Group---Result(s)

Don't know if it's too different from the OOTP main screen where a Task List exist on the opening page, but I think a calendar listing of events could help...

visibly organize the 12 month organizational calendar
reduce errors by allowing game players to keep ahead of deadlines
build an automated record (timeline if you will) of achievements
allow for tasks to be added in by events generated by player conduct, contracts, suspensions, retirements, etc.
classify events by importance so that certain tasks can be automated, while others are critical and need research

Good idea. We'll see what Francis has to say.

If you watch some of Francis' old Football GM videos there are little dated lists that show upcoming tasks, if I remember correctly.

I wanted to clarify that I'm not talking about a game log. A log is just a listing of past events. I'm talking about something that's dynamic, meaning that events can drop in at any time and become tasks if necessary.
