[USML Announce] Calendar

[Mark Blocker]

Rich:

 

  I sent an e-mail to CBS to see how this will be handled.  The portion of
the help page you quoted is responding to a question about a portion of the
Setup menu's "schedule page."  There is no schedule page on our setup menu,
so perhaps this is only applicable to leagues that use head-to-head scoring.
In any event, I will let you know what I find out.  I noticed that the
"offseason" page on each "my team" menu starts with 9/29, and that 9/28 is
not listed in either offseason or period 26.  This make me think that they
will add the last day to period 26.

The Help page for the service has an entry concerning the final reporting
period.  The relevant text is included below.  How is our league set up?

 

-- Rich

 

With your current selected period start date, the end of the MLB regular
season schedule does not allow for a complete seven day final scoring
period. Use the "Final MLB PERIOD" option to determine how you will include
the last days of the MLB schedule within your league's final scoring period.
Extended - This option adds the remaining days of the MLB schedule to your
normal seven day scoring period. The number associated with "Extended"
represents the total days of your last scoring period. Split - This option
allows you to separate the remaining days of the MLB final week of play into
its own scoring period. The number associated with "Split" identifies the
total days of the final abbreviated scoring period.

There are games next Sunday but the CBS web site doesn't show a final
one-day reporting period that includes that date, it also doesn't appear to
include 9/28 as part of the current reporting period.  

As this season' s outcome could very easily come down to the last day, this
is something that we need to understand.  How does our service handle next
Sunday?
