First, try PMing Le Grande Orange with any questions you have about scheduling. He is THE authority on the subject, and he's very willing to help.

Second, what are you using for typical series length? In your situation I might go with three games and give up on getting an 85/86 home/away break.

Third, how did you happen to notice the discrepancy? You now have me worried that I might've experienced the same thing and just not noticed it.
I was using three game series lengths, and I don't particularly care if the home/away split is exactly even.

I noticed it after realigning my league. At the end of the '08 season we went from a four-division setup to the one big league. After realigning the game strongly suggests regenerating the schedule. So after I did that I went and looked at the schedule report, and it was immediately obvious.

Maybe I'll try changing the series lengths to see if that has an effect. Maybe I will PM LGO, since he is the most revered schedule guru I've ever heard of.
