Hey all,

I run a Legacy League for Perth, WA.
At the moment, the format is fortnightly we put out two pairings - E.G pairings for R1/R2, then two weeks later pairings for R3/R4.

At the moment I am using WER to pair R1, then manually pairing R2.
Does anyone have a better way to do this?

Getting more frustrating as the amount of players grows!

Thanks

I'm not sure I follow what you're doing. So on week one, you make pairings for rounds 1 and 2 at the same time - i.e. People know in advance which two people they're going to play? I assume there's a reason you don't just pair round 2 when round 1 is over. Is it that the players have 2 weeks to play their two matches?

If the above is the case, then I imagine you have instances where W1 winners play W1 losers, so it's not like a Swiss style event. At least, until you make W3/4 pairings.

I imagine doing them in a spreadsheet like Excel is going to be simpler mechanically than doing it in WER. And then transposing the results into WER later. But then again, thats probably even more work unless you have a wonderfully automated spreadsheet.

What's the frustrating part about the manual pairing? Normally if I'm manually pairing all I need are some dice.

You can pair round 1 in WER, enter all results as 1-1, then pair round 2.
Then, once you have the results, you just change the results to reflect
reality.

That is an awesome genius answer :)

I can't believe I didn't think of that, you're a champ.

Yes, he is.

Sorry for the “spam”, but it needs to be said again and again. David is simply amazing.
