Scattergories S11 Topic

Just a general note: I'm doing a lot of organizing of sitemails, lists, numbers, and names.

While I'm not going to require it, it would be very helpful if the following could happen in ballots:

1. List the full first name and last name. I think I know who you mean by "S Curry," but there are two possibilities, and in Scat it's not a given.
2. Don't list numbers. I copy and paste straight from your ballot to the alpha list, which means I'm removing the numbers on your list. I can do that, but it's just more work and means a slightly higher possibility of omission or error.
3. Check your spelling at least once. Often, I'll Ctrl+F across all ballots to find duplicates. A lot of the time I go by the last name or the most recognizable part of the name (like "Hardaw" for Penny or "Michael" for Jordan) but if there's a misspelling, there's a greater chance I'll miss it. I do a manual proofread of the master sheet for each round, but it's a bit harder that way.

I don't mean to make excuses, and I certainly hope this is the most mistake-free Round 1 yet. If there are any other issues, please bring them to my attention before submitting your Round 2. We've got closer to three days to sort out any issues before moving on. Thanks for your patience, and I'm excited for another Scat odyssey.

Kobe Bryant is listed twice on alpha list and is listed on cem6989's team. He should not be on that team.

Dwayne Wade is listed as 1/1 but not listed on my team. Did I get him?

Couple of corrections:

Kobe Bryant was taken three times, and was already on the alpha list but repeated.

Dwyane Wade, Deron Williams and Serge Ibaka were all selected twice. Alpha list will be updated.

I think the same happened in my case with Kirilenko but not on my team. Likely just a typo in the OP and Karl Towns picked twice.

Alpha List summed to 281 picks before those corrections... should sum to 283 now.

12 picks by 24 teams = 288 picks. It is just typos in the alpha list. bds is doing a tremendous job guys its just a matter of how manual inputting the information is which is a hurdle, this is bound to happen no biggie :D

This league must be so difficult to administer. A few teams off to fantastic starts. I am not optimistic about the threepeat now.

I get turned around easily. Workflow is not really my strong suit, but I'm happy to do it. Hopefully I'll have a perfect round 1 in the future

I thought the deadline was 5 PM? If we're not going to adhere to it, why make one?
