2 schedules or a tool

lionden_56 · 11-23-2016, 05:31 PM

Hi guys, I have an either/or scenario:

Either:
I'm looking for two schedules. They would be games on Thur-Sun, all against the same team, but swapping home/away (So team A is home Thurs/Fri, team B is home Sat/Sun).

The first schedule is 20 teams, 1 sub, 1 division, play everyone 4 times (so one series), for a total of 76 games over 19 weeks.

Second schedule is the same idea, but 11 teams, 1 sub, 1 division, play everyone 8 times (2 series) for a total of 80 games over 22 weeks. Everyone would get two "bye" weeks.

Or:
Before my old laptop crashed I had this excel file that I'm assuming I got from here that could be used to build a schedule and it spit out the XML file to export to notepad. I don't have any issue putting the time to build these schedules myself, but I can't seem to find that file for the life of me on here. And I can't get it off my laptop anymore. Does anyone have that file for me so I can just do these myself?

Thanks!

I can work on these.

Thanks. For the second schedule, to make life easy, the schedule can just repeat itself. I don't really care if the second meetings between teams is in a different order as the first.

it will be slightly different order.

I'm still doing 2H/2A each week, just going to have two of those.

I'm using a random number generator.

I will also try to keep teams from having byes too close, or really far apart. Somewhere in the middle is what I aim for

Hey Hip,

If it isn't too much of an imposition, can I add a 12th team to that second schedule. If it is too much work don't worry about it, but since you just slot it in instead of the bye I'm guessing it isn't too big of a deal. I found some old files for a team that are making me want to change the setup a little bit.

Thanks
