Game Manager - Entering Scheduled Games

[OhioTex]

The Game Manager screen should also let me select the leagues I want to display instead of making me go back to the League Manager, then back to the Game Manager.

Game Manager does allow you to assign leagues by game, w/o having to go back to league manager. Here is how.. Click on Game Manager, Select Game of Choice, .. you are now at "Game Info" screen.. just scroll down past stats and date to options to the second from bottom choice "Leagues". then check and uncheck assignments as you want.

an aside. it is true you can not create new leagues under game manager, that is reserved for League manager.

hope this helps

I just entered our kids' league schedule into Game Manager. There are a couple things I wish I had to make it easier and more informative:

- provide a calendar that I can enter a date for the scheduled game instead of tapping in the date manually
- provide a location for the venue (usually a sports complex and field number)
- the main Game Manager screen lists each game with the date and teams in the title - the teams are already listed below in the box. Maybe replace the title with just the date, venue, and maybe the league that the game is for (a game can only be in one league, right?)

I can second, third, forth . . . this request. along with export to iCAL in some fashion - and have the games sorted by date.

Would also like to see settings for indicating which player to bring drinks/snacks for post game, which player-parent needs to score keep, which player-parent needs to announce the game, which team to water the field past game, which team to chaulk the field pre-game, which team to take the trash out post game - these are duties which our local LL request of the teams and parents.

Our next release has a generic "notes" field that you can use for whatever you would like. It would not make a lot of sense for us to add all the "player that brings snack, water field, chalk, trash, etc" as iScore is used at all levels (e.g. College kids or MLB don't have their parents bringing snacks to games... at least most don't ). But the Notes field can be used for whatever you would like.

Thanks for the feedback - Notes field should work.

[OhioTex]

how will the new generic game notes get out of iScore in upcoming release? will the notes be emailable on their own? or part of some other output, e.g pitch-by-pitch, play-by-play, PDF scorecard, or some other?

[FTMSupport]

Initially they will only be available on the Game Info screen, but will be added to all forms of output in the future (scorecard, pitch by pitch, play by play).

sounds reasonable..

The sort order is:

1. Start date of game (based on when Play! is pressed --- which is done when the umpire says Play Ball)
2. For games that have not yet been scored, they are shown in the order they are entered

I am a new user and just downloaded the iPad version. I entered my son's baseball schedule in Game Manager in date order. None of these games have been scored. When entered, they appeared in the order entered...each new game appearing above the next. However, when I went back into Game Manager later, they were all in random order. No correlation to how they were entered. Any way to reorder these? Love the app and can't wait to use it tomorrow.

Unfortunately the sorting for the list is based on "start time" for the game. The start time is not set until you actually press "Play" for the game, so the sort order for all already scored games will be correct, but for unscored games, the start time is not set, so the order is undefined.

We will look into adding a "scheduled start time" for a future release, but it would mean having to go in and set this. Most people arrive at the game, and create the game at the same time, but we understand that some users want to pre-enter the whole scheduled --- especially those folks that have added the Team Website add on, so we will look to add scheduling.

Thank you.
