Schedule request - 14 teams 132 games 2S/2D/4433T (Alternative Home & Away Version)

[terij]

Hello, so around this time last year, I requested a schedule similar to this one. I wanted to request the same schedule, this time the "alternating home-and-away version" along with a few changes and additional requests.


4 teams, 132 games, 42 series
2 subleagues, each with two divisions
1st subleague contains divisions of 4,4
2nd subleague contains divisions of 3,3

For 8-team subleague
20 games vs. all 3 division opponents (10H/10A) (60 total)
*6 series vs. each team (3H/3A) (18 total)
9 games vs. each team in other division (6H/3A) / (3H/6A) (36 total)
3 series vs. each team (2H/1A) / (1H/2A) (12 total)
6 games vs. each team in other subleague (3H/3A) (36 total)
2 series vs. each team (1H/1A) (12 total)

Opposite of last year's schedule
Teams 1 & 3 will host 2 home series vs. teams 5 & 7
Teams 2 & 4 will host 2 home series vs. teams 6 & 8


For 6-team subleague
24 games vs. all 2 division opponents (12H/12A) (48 total)
#7 series vs. each team (4H/3A) / (3H/4A) (14 total)
12 games vs. each team in other division (6H/6A) (36 total)
4 series vs. each team (2H/2A) (12 total)
6 games vs. each team in other subleague (3H/3A) (48 total)
2 series vs. each team (1H/1A) (16 total)

Again, opposite of last year's schedule
Team 9 will host team 10 for 3 4-game series
Team 10 will host team 11 for 3 4-game series
Team 11 will host team 9 for 3 4-game series
Team 12 will host team 14 for 3 4-game series
Team 13 will host team 12 for 3 4-game series
Team 14 will host team 13 for 3 4-game series

*Each team will host 1 4-game series and 2 3-games series.
#One team will host 3 4-game series and the other will host 4 3-game series.


Season Start: First Friday of April
Season End: First Sunday of September
Season Length: 150 days
All-Star Break: Day 74 - Day 77 (Game on Day 75)
Offday follows every road interleague series

BONUS: (These may seem random
Team 8 to get 3 consecutive road series right before all-star break
All teams play on Days 46, 89, 123, 150 (Each team plays at home on 2 of these days)

Thanks in advance!

I reversed the home/away of all the matchups even though that was not the same as some of the specific details. E.g., 9 already hosted 10 for the 4-game series in the previous, so in this version 10 hosts 9 for the 4-game series.

The biggest difference was shifting the All-Star Break forward a couple weeks. That was doable, but not all the other details could be worked out together. I emphasized the day off after road interleague series, but doing that made some other things not completely workable.

Some teams have only a 3-day All-Star Break, restarting on day 77.

A couple teams play at home only 1 of the four special days, with a corresponding two teams playing 3 of them at home.

So that is the new b1 version.

I went ahead and made a b2 version that satisfies the other requests but gives up on the requirement of offday after interleague road series. To sort of compensate for that, I made so 1:05pm will be the gametime if either team plays elsewhere the next day.
