    There is a lot to keep track of here

    There certainly is. I only have to track 2 teams and that's enough for me. However, I don't wait until the last match is played to keep my guys aware of what's going on. I doubt Paul does either and it takes less than 30 seconds to refresh existing pages where those tallies are recorded. I don't think that's a lot to ask.

     

    to the answer to your request jim is i would love to have an updated table every day but it just isnt possible to do,my problem is monitoring it mate,results come in at all times of the day and i cant be on 24/7 looking out for them.

    what i could do and i dont know if it would work is to give all the captains access to the tables and you fill them in yourselves,

    if and when a result comes in,,the captain would post results and  the points into the table and one of us  can move them around every few days when we  go on,

    we would have to agree that only one captain would put the result in,perhaps the winning players captain,

    im all for progress and if it makes it easier for players to see the position of the club in the league .im for it but its more work for the captains but as you said jim it takes 30 secs to do so it cant be that hard can it,

    me,nico and paul tdot would check the tables after each round to make sure they are correct with the captains final results post,

    this could work if we all do our bit to help.

    i will email the captains with this post as well.

    cant see why we cant start this next round,it takes a few days before the results come in,i would still like the players to post their results on the forum and a short post on the match.

    i llook forwards to your comments on this all players

    Hi all,

    I see no problem in the progress of this competition!

    The second game begins March 15th,and practically, all the results are there.

    The spring comes at my door, the sun is back, WTF ?

    Cool life

    Cheers,Eric

    That would be nuts to try and pull off and expecting that would definitely be unreasonable.

    Instead of having the captains do it, maybe the 3 of you could share it, or "helpers" of your choice. Let them have access and then you'd have 3 pairs of eyes keeping it right.  I'm not sure letting captains have access to your work is such a hot idea. 

    As far as updating the results, something like every other day or 3 just update the link on the first page here after a result is posted. You have to save the spreadsheet after each entry (entries) anyway so the update could be whenever you had  time.

     

    p.s., Pepsieric did a bang up job on page 46.  :-)

    results are updated as soon as they come in anyeay .you can see that on the first page,its the tables which would take time especially moving teams up and down the leaderboard which would be a pain and time consuming and a ballache.

    what i could do is send you the template for the tables and you can follow the results and post them in your table,that would work jimbo,

    ps too much colour in it mate for me but nice work,perhaps he can do it,he has a fair bit of time on his hands

    I think we're getting our signals crossed here. You don't need to maintain current tables, that's for the end. The only reason I even mentioned anything was because I kept checking the first group and was only seeing 2 teams updated even though I knew a lot of the matches were already played. I only wanted to see what other teams in the group were doing. If that link is updated just by you entering scores and saving them, then that's all we really need. No need to make more work for you.  :-)

    Kinda rude, dude..

    I think Finn probably got four messages about my match alone- I had to substitute in when our player had a vacation and couldn't get his match set in time. My initial match went kaput when my first opponent quit the other club. We arranged a match with their substitute (PaulTon), but I missed the original tee-time due to "life got in the way". Then, we went on DST on Sunday, and I showed up an hour early for our game, so I messaged my Captain- don't know if he passed it on to Finny.

    I know it's not a job I want...
