Schedule generator

...I noticed Stickware will edit the date the league currently has.

Thus, I have a problem. I want at least a week between now and when my league starts in order to handle some waiver processing and such. Any suggestions?

Not sure I follow... What do you mean by "edit the date" - the Stickware option to start on first Monday after some date?

What are "now" and "when my league starts" - April 1 & first games?

I like being helpful with schedules now, but I'm a little confuzzled here.

You could always set your stickware to start (example) the first Monday after 4/13. Then say the schedule starts on 4/13. Then edit the schedule in OOTP to 4/7. Then you should be able to just sim day by day until play starts.

I'm not sure you guys get the problem. No matter when I try to get stickware to edit the schedule, it'll do that... but it'll change the CURRENT date in the league. First I tried editing it to 4/13 or whatever, and it changed the current date from 4/1 to 4/12... making it kind of useless.

Yes, it does that. I screwed a historical league up badly when I somehow set it to be 2002 instead of 1925.

Only idea I have is to run it like normal, but delete a week's worth of games from the beginning and tack them on at the end. Probably not the easiest way to go, though.

EDIT: Or, you could tell it to make an extra week's worth of games and delete those.
