What's not getting posted on the FIRST site? The qualification match schedule? If this is the case, we might be able to pause the script and do manual input on Thursday night.
In at least one of the last few years I know nothing at all got posted for Peachtree for at least a week after the event because I was looking for it for Fantasy FIRST. I'm hoping issues like that have been ironed out as the current FMS matures, but I wanted to make sure there was a backup plan if it becomes an issue.

It sounds like if push comes to shove and a backup plan is required there is a way to get things done so I can now move forward with our plan to use the system.

Thanks a ton to you Nick and the rest of 254 for developing and sharing the system and taking the time to answer our questions about it here.
