Round Robin Assistant

I run a billiards ladies league. In order to make this a relaxed league I devised a way to make it a stress free league. We never have a set schedule. Instead, if you show up you play in a round robin tournament every week. The only change that I would like to see is when I have a match that isn’t played because someone leaves early, I don’t have the ability to have the final points reflect a 0-0 score. The app automatically assigns a point for those teams. Please look into the final points score to reflect true scores.

For the time being, it works and I’m glad I payed for the premium features. There are some issues with the “doubles unlimited” like a previous review noted. Instead of distributing evenly and avoid also playing with the same partner on consecutive games… it is truly random and that is not useful. Aside from that I really wish you could save players. The new drafts feature would be so helpful if I could duplicate it and create tournaments with the same people or edit the group slightly if I need to. I also wish I could “refresh” the matches so the matches would just change teams and opponents if I feel like the pairing is not the best. This could also resolve the r”randomness of the first problem, if someone sat out and the next game is asking them to do so again, a refresh could include them back into the court and problem solved. I also wish I could choose my view on the score numbers. If we are playing traditional 11, I don’t neeed to see points up to 76! It makes clutter and takes time to find the number you want.

The app works great when there are complete foursomes. Not so great when incomplete foursomes require players to take byes. For example, when using the Round Robin Doubles (Random Teams) format with 14 players, the app creates 17 games. Out of those 17 games, five players get two byes. Six players get three byes. Two players get one bye, and one player gets four byes. One player got three byes in three consecutive games. The app should spread byes evenly among all players. For example, with 14 players, the app should provide seven games with each player getting one bye or 14 games with each player getting two byes. And no player should have to take byes in two consecutive games.
