The Scores and Schedule screen is the place to check out upcoming matchups and recent game results.
This screen acts as a calendar of sorts, displaying one day at a time. By default, today's date is displayed. This screen gives you access to a lot of important functionality that we'll break out into several different pages:
- Viewing Scheduled Games (those that have not yet been played)
- Viewing Completed Games (those that have already been played)
- Recaps (writing custom recaps of completed games)
- Viewing the schedule for the Next 7 Days
- Viewing live coverage of games in progress
But before we go there, we'll also cover a few more basic interface pieces on this page:
Calendar Navigation Bar
The Calendar Navigation Bar can be found in the top right corner of the screen. Click the arrows on either side of the date to move the date forward or back. If you click on the date, month, or year, you will receive a drop-down in which you can choose a different value from a list. Click the Jump to Current Date button to set the date on this screen back to the current date in the game universe. (This button is helpful if you have been looking through the calendar and want to quickly return to the current date.)
Note: The in-game calendar allows you to review the calendar for the current season only, as next year's schedule isn't generated until after the current season is over.
Hide Scores
The Hide Scores checkbox is a feature primarily for use together with the replay feature and online leagues. By checking the Hide Scores checkbox, players can hide scores on this page. That way, they can then use the Replay feature to watch those games without knowing the outcome in advance. Similarly, for online leagues, this will prevent managers from seeing game scores before they want to.
Note: Unfortunately, scores aren't hidden throughout the entire league file. So, for example, an online league GM might see the results by mistake by looking at the Standings screen first. If you're an online league GM, and want to be sure you don't see the scores before you replay, come to the Scores and Schedule screen before you download the latest online league file!
