Thank you so much for all of the great features in this program.
I've been using iScore for a couple of years to keep track of stats, but this is the first year that I'm sending box scores into the newspapers for our team. I am so glad that we are able to send the box score directly from the iPad, especially since some of our night games end within minutes of the newspaper deadline. A request regarding the box, however.
The "Notes" field only allows for one continuous line of text. There are several bits of information that I would like to include in this area and it would much easier for the reporters/editors to view it if I could include a "hard return" and put them on separate lines.
Being able to do separate lines would solve the issue, but it might be easier to add a couple of more single line fields. Here is the information that I would like to put in:
* Umpires (this doesn't need to go in the box, but we like to keep a record of who umpired which game so the coach can go back and complete his evaluations for the state association)
* Contact Information (just an e-mail address. iScore sends the box through an anonymous remailer, so the reporter/editor has no idea where it is coming from or who to contact if they have any questions.)
* Team Win-Loss record
* Next Game

Re: Contact Info in Box Score
We will add your suggestions to our enhancement list for future prioritization. In the meantime, you can put commas between data in notes and use upper / lower case to help delimit labels / values (e.g. UMPIRES: Fred, Joe, CONTACT: me@somewhere.com, WIN-LOSS: 10-2, NEXT GAME: 6/9/2012 @ 2:00pm)

Thanks for putting it in the hopper, and thanks for the suggestion.
Re: Contact Info in Box Score
Eureka! I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier... The box score is e-mailed after it is parsed into HTML. All I had to do to get my line breaks was to enter the HTML code for a line break (<br>) in between bits of info in the notes section and it divided everything into lines in the e-mail.
