My wish for a FHM3 update or FHM4

An easy way to export game results, rosters, news, standings, stats, etc to HTML or XML to make it easier to blog our game progress.

Even if it was just a PDF, it would be a huge time saver, and it would help us evangelize the game.

This would go hand in hand with easier sharing on social media, as others have requested.

Would a CSV to HTML/XML/PDF converter work?

I haven't exported from this game, so not sure what the CSV files look like. But could be worth a shot?

CSV files are good for historical player and goalies data (really detailed export in that) but still missing some stuff (Standing have only one column for wins so leagues with 3 point system are kinda screwed for example, schedule is missing a lot of stuff that would go long way).
I believe that we will see some improvement sooner or later tho

That solves part of the problem. It could be used to show stats and the roster.

I want to be able to easily publish the game reports as HTML, XML or even something that would work in the more popular blog formats. The more I could publish from the game automatically, the easier it is to run a season for public consumption.

I did it for last season in FHM2. I ended up doing it all in Word then creating weekly PDF files that captured the manually transcribed news, league scores, and things I added like standings, prospect reports and league leaders. It was a hellish process that was very slow and prone to errors.
