Games for subrounds are going on the wrong dates for those subrounds



In this video you can see that games are being put on incorrect dates for the subround. Subround two should be played on March 9th.

Additional total weirdness is that when I unschedule and reschedule the games, they don't even go back to the same dates they were originally (erroneously) scheduled on. I have no idea why the dates keep jumping around. This makes no sense. All my experience with the League Connect scheduling system prior to this is that games for a given subround are always attempted to be scheduled on the next available game date as configured in the schedule's settings.



To add to the confusion, in the below video we can see that even though some games were automatically scheduled by the system for wrong (later) dates, I am able to move them back to the correct date with no errors. There are no scheduling conflicts at all. So I don't know why the system isn't putting these games on the correct date in the first place.

Edit (2/25/2018):

I believe this problem may only be occurring on schedules where pairing templates are in use. But I have used pairing templates in the past without this problem. If we don't use pairing templates on schedules with an odd number of teams, it makes it a pain to manage byes and a correct number of games per team.

Upon initially deploying the card, I experienced some very serious problems with it My setup: Server is a SuperMicro X9SCM in a 2U half-depth chassis. 3Ware Card exists with 2 1TB WD Black HDs. Motherboard Intel SATA has 2 Kingston SSDs installed in a RAID1 (Microsoft Dynamic Disk) OS is Server 2012 R2 This server has been rock solid for 3 years. About 1 year ago: I added an Ablecomm SATA card that has 2 M.2 connectors. It has housed a single Crucial CX300 M.2 SATA SSD. This setup has been rock solid with no hiccups whatsoever. Today: I replaced the Ablecomm PCIe card with the StarTech card and moved the CX300. I also installed a 2nd 1TB CX300 alongside. The plan was to mirror the 2 CX300s and start using them for prod...

Team Conflict Avoidance System Erratic Behavior

The below video shows me discovering conflicting games that were auto-scheduled by the StackSports scheduling system despite a team conflict rule having been previously created to prevent this. Usually the system adheres to the team conflict rules I create. Sometimes (inexplicably) it doesn't. This video is an excellent example showing this is actually a bug, and not intended behavior. After making a subtle adjustment to a game time, it's like the existing team conflict rule "woke up", and triggered the red alerts it should have done all along. In fact it should have scheduled these games in a way to avoid the conflicts in the first place, and therefore the alerts wouldn't have ever had need to exist. This video shows problems such as: Conflicting games that should never have been scheduled at the same time (based on the team conflict rules that were already defined). Missing alert/warnings for "error" games that have problems (i.e. the gam...

No grace in verbatim communion prayers

Image
I do not appreciate the intolerance for minor grammatical errors in the spoken (typically ‘read’) communion sacrament prayers when recited by the LDS young men during congregation worship services. I understand the covenant nature of the prayer, and thus the importance of the meaning of the covenant being accurately conveyed in the prayer. But the intolerance for minor nuanced accidental variations that do not change the details of the covenant or prayer seems nonsensical. It is disruptive to the service to require the young man to repeat the entire prayer for such an error. And it potentially embarrasses the young man unnecessarily. Considering the degree of grace and leniency church members seem to grant Joseph Smith for much more significant variations in details he communicated (such as stating he was 14 years old, and also that he was 16 years old, when he had his first vision), I don’t understand why we can’t grant our young men a bit of grace for a much-less significant nuanced...
