The dreaded spaces.
I am confused on how to set up the txt file. I know we are suppose to have a random list first, does that get a -1?
No. If you do and run out of teams, somebody gets the elusive team -1, who loses every game they play…
I think I have mastered it but I have two things I would like to see, 1. show the status after each action and 2. a command that shows a list of commands.
The first one won’t be too hard to do; expect an update out later today. As for the second, that’s part of why I have an instruction sheet. We’ll see what I can do.
Oh, and before I forget:

before you go for that update, can you make L assign teams going through the serpentine. So that L takes the place of L, L, L, L, L, L…
I honestly have no idea how to do that right now. Maybe I’ll figure that out over Christmas break. I think I addressed that in the FAQs.
Here’s what happens when you press L currently:
The program notes that the character is L, assigns one variable, and calls a list-picking function. That function checks for player lists, then enters a for loop where it first checks for the end of list flag, then checks if the team is taken. When it finds a team that isn’t already picked, it verifies that they are attending (and triggers an alert if they aren’t, which is what I was checking last night) and assigns them, then goes back into the main loop. The status is displayed, and the program waits for an input.
To do the list picking, I’d have to assign the next input to be L, which would keep it going until someone didn’t have a list or ran out of teams on their list. The problem is, I’d need to do a lot of testing to make sure it didn’t go into an infinite loop.
Why don’t the draft results and team list export to the same file?
I don’t remember offhand. I’ll see if I can get something together before tonight’s drafts start. I wonder why I did that too…
Edit: I’ve updated the program to reflect that I figured that out.

Are we having a draft for Israel tonight?
If we are, I won’t be able to run it. I’ve got a 2-hour Differential Equations final at 4 Mountain Time (6 EST). Matter of fact, I’m pretty much out of running drafts this year; internet access will be not at guaranteed times until after Kickoff. (I can still do scoring, recording and some attendance; those don’t need a given time.)

so should we still send Eric a copy of our draft list, or only to Ed now?
I’m gonna need someone to jump in and help run the weekend drafts.
I can help after tonight.
Sounds good to me.
Welcome aboard!

Let me know you’ve sent one, or CC me when you send a list in. It’s just the draft running I can’t do easily.
