Help with a schedule

Cooleyvol · 06-05-2006, 06:01 PM

OK, I've converted a 14 team (7 in each league) schedule over. It has 154 games which is more than the 126 I want.

I can go through and delete games to get it down, but it won't be exactly what I want.

I have the schedule.txt from my league in OOTP where a 126 game schedule was set up. 14 against teams in your league, 6 against teams from the other league.

Can anyone help get it converted to the new version?

I've attached it.

Teams in the same league are as follows (to aid in assigning team #'s):
STL
STP
LOU
DES
BIR
KC
FTW

HSB
NY
BOS
BUF
DAY
BAL
CLE

Any help is appreciated.

What I can try to do is rearrange your schedule file into a chronological format which I've used for some real-world schedule files. I can then pass that file to gmo whose utility can convert from that format into OOTP2006 format.

Questions though:

You have start times as 0:00 and 1:00 - is that supposed to be 12 noon and 1 p.m.? Or do you want something else? Note that schedule files in OOTP2006 now support any start time within a day, so if you wanted 3:15 p.m. or 6:45 p.m. game starts or what have you those can be used.

Second, what are the teams exactly? I'm not sure of some of your abbreviations; I've made my best guess below. Please correct me where I've guessed wrong.

STL = St. Louis, MO
STP = St. Paul, MN
LOU = Louisville, KY
DES = Des Moines, IA
BIR = Birmingham, AL
KC = Kansas City, MO
FTW = Fort Wayne, IN

HSB = Harrisburg, PA
NY = New York City, NY
BOS = Boston, MA
BUF = Buffalo, NY
DAY = Dayton, OH
BAL = Baltimore, MD
CLE = Cleveland, OH

As an owner in the league Cooley is getting the schedule for, I can confirm those abbreviations as entirely correct.

lgo, I'm not so concerned with the game times.

I just need the 126 game schedule for a 14 team setup. 7 teams in each league with interleague play.

14 games vs league opponents.

Season starting April 1st or thereabouts and ending in the last week of August/first week of Sept. as that schedule does.
6 games vs each team in the other league.

Except for when you would prefer an All-Star Break I think all the info I would need there to create a 126-game schedule. The problem for now is finding the time to do it. This goes onto my list (or what would be my list if I was writing stuff down like I ought to

).

I checked that file which Cooleyvol and it wasn'twhat I thought it was. That file is for a 12 team league setup. The schedule format is not terribly symmetric either. I thought that file was for a 14 team league... my mistake.

Somewhere around June 15 for the All Star game.

Here's a csv export of the schedule from that season.
My apologies for the first txt file being incorrect.
