Schedule Request -162
I'm trying my hand at making this on my own, but the custom generator on the board wouldn't run on my PC, and I'm going cross-eyed trying to do it on my own. Still trying! But thought I'd ask if anyone would be willing to give it a shot:
Yes Interleague Balanced No 32 Teams 2 Subleagues, 2 Divisions w/8 Teams in each subleague 162 Games, 189 Days Starts Last Monday in March All Star Game on Day 100 18 Games each vs 3 division teams = 54 6 Games each vs 12 same subleague teams = 72 3 Games each vs 4 other subleague division opponents = 12 2 Games each vs 12 other subleague opponents = 24 Thank you! |

It does not necessarily matter for the build, but do you mean 4 divisions with 4 teams in each for each subleague?

I have something put together but want to wait to post it until there is confirmation it will the desired parameters. It is 2 subdvisions each with 4 divisions of 4 teams.
In the meantime some cuts from "the making of"... The specified 189 days equals 27 weeks, which equals 54 half-weeks, except subtract one for the All-Star break. So 53 half-weeks for the 162 games. How to make the series fit that way? Taking the 18 games per division opponent and doing all 3-game series (9 home games and 9 away games) means 6 series per opponent, and 3 opponents makes 18 division series. Taking the 6 games per league opponent and doing all 3-game series (3 home games and 3 away games) means 2 series per opponent, and 12 opponents makes 24 league series. One series per interleague opponent makes 16 interleague series. Adding those up 18+24+16=58 series. So we have 5 more series than half-weeks into which to fit them. That is okay because we have twelve 2-game series that we can combine into pairs since 4 games fit into a half-week if the other half of the week has a 3-game (or less) series. But if we combine all 12 into 6 pairs, that takes us from 58 series to effectively 52 series, which would leave us one short. What we can do next is re-separate one of those pairs into their individual 2-game series. We can group each of those single 2-game interleague series with cases of the paired interleague series to give us two weeks of three 2-game series. Putting those together like that means 6 games and only a single offday in such a week. Adding it up we have 53 half-weeks covered by:

I suspected that it would be easier to schedule as if there were 4/4, though. Designating 3 teams as "rivals" or some such. I get to keep my playoff structure, but get the ease of scheduling as if it were 4/4. After tooling around with this some more, I suspect it might be easier to play 54 games against 3 division "rivals" 9 home/9 away each [18 3-game series] 96 games against other 12 subleague opponents 4 home/4 away each [24 4-game series? or some combination of 2 & 4-game series?] 12 games against 4 interleague opponents, rotating on a yearly basis [4 3-game series] (play 4 teams each year, home/away wrinkles meaning 8 versions needed) So with this tweak, it would end up 18 division rivals 3-game series 30 subleague series [18 4-game series, 12 2-game series] 4 interleague 3-game series 52 total series in 53 half-weeks Last edited by ethanr; 04-29-2019 at 12:55 AM.

The blog is a gradual work in progress, but I hope it can be helpful. Let me know if over there or on here you have any suggestions/questions/whatever that you think would be useful.

Just to follow up on this GMO, thank you for your work and your blog. I was inspired to build this tweak of my original request.
162 games 2 subleagues 2 divisions 8 teams 18 vs 3 division opponents = 54 8 vs 12 subleague opponents = 96 3 vs 4 interleague opponents = 12 I built it by hand, and learned a lot in doing so. Reading about the half weeks concept helped a lot. I also learned that I had to map out exactly which blocks between off days needed which kinds of series. 2, 3 or 4 game. |
