Standings seem to be inaccurate?

We have a Pool going but are starting with TODAY (Sunday's Week 1) Games - and are not including this past Thursday Night as it gave us a few more days to recruit more people.

I went in and opted for the "commissioner sets schedule" option - and then "disabled" the Thursday Night Game between the Eagles and Falcons -- I did this before that Game took place.. Some people had already entered a pick for that Game before we decided to push back the start date to Sunday (instead of Thursday).

On the Standings page - it correctly shows that records are out of 15 Games for this week (there are actually 16, but again we don't want the Thursday Game to count).. However, a couple people that must have picked the Eagles on Thursday Night are showing up with a Win right now so they are "1-14" and everyone else is "0-15." Everyone right now (9am CST) should be at the same "0-15" or "0-0" really

I'm not sure how to fix this?  

Thanks,

Hi Holden,

The 'manager set schedule' is  a new feature and I think you've hit a corner case by using it after players picked a game not in your schedule. :) I'll get this resolved with a code upload probably late tonight. 

Just FYI, there is a setting to "Exclude Thursday game" which you could have used instead of setting the schedule.

Sorry about that. I figured “skip Thursday game” was for every week - we only wanted to skip this Thursday.

Thanks for fast reply!

Hey no worries, the method you used should work and I'm grateful you found a corner case.  The feature to allow managers to set the schedule will be especially important next season when we plan to start supporting NCAA pickem and confidence leagues.

We should be good, but check back tomorrow morning. Right after the Monday night game finishes all the leagues go through a final processing which is when your league should clean up.

Hey Fred,

It seems some entries have 15 games when looking at their week 1 results and others have 16 games?

My guess is those with 16 - picked that Thursday night game last week?

Any chance you can look again at this for me?

Thanks!

For now I went in and fixed your standings, however the 1st place calculation is still accounting for the Thursday game some had picked. I'll have that fixed tonight. I'll use my test site to figure out how to prevent this in the future. A good corner case for sure. :)  Check it when you get a chance and let me know if I missed anything as far as the standings go.

Hey Fred,

Under Standings and the “season” tab it appears everyone has the correct 15 games on their record..

However, under the “week” tab and select Week 1.. some people are still showing 16 games. 

Once we fix that - I think we’re good?

Thanks!

Ok, I applied the fix, I think we should be good to go. Basically if a player picks a game and the manager then removes the game from the schedule, its ignored when the league is processed for that week.
