Idiot asking for schedule, 2T 9G

afancy · 12-11-2016, 10:43 AM

My apologies for my first post being a request...I've lurked on this forum for over a decade but never signed up.

I'm trying to make a schedule but I can't get it to work. I think it will be pretty easy for one of you to make. I'd be grateful!!

I am looking to make a 2 team schedule with 9 games total. One game per week (preferably on Saturday), starting sometime in June or July. It would therefore run 9 weeks.

Obviously it can't be balanced. Both teams are in one league. No all star break. Also I don't think it matters for schedule purposes but playoffs will be disabled.

The struggle for me is the one game a week- otherwise I could just go with an auto-generated. Thank you!!

Have the game create the schedule
Go to Game > League Settings > Edit League Schedule > Available Actions > Export to File
Export the game-created schedule to your computer
Open the exported file
Change GAME day="2" to GAME day="8". Change the remaining game day numbers so that there is a 7-day gap between games
Save the file
Go back into OOTP. In Edit League Schedule > Available Actions > Import from File
Choose the same file that you revised
Go to League Setting > Options
On the right side of the screen, where it says Force Start on Certain Weekday, check the box and choose Saturday.
That should do it.

Awesome- What program do I use to open the exported file?

Notepad works for me.

If that doesn't work you can always just manually schedule 9 games in the actual schedule in the game.

you can pick the day, team 1 vs team 2 and the time
