Hello,

I was looking for a RR schedule generator on the net and came across your board.

I am running a 16 player RR league but we find ourselves that we have played 4 rounds and need a schedule for the remaining 11 rounds.

Can anyone link me to a program that will allow these already played rounds to be entered and then the remaining rounds generated?

Thanks for your time
Gar

At this stage it might be impossible. I would start writing the players and their schedules on index cards and seeing if you can fit them into the following pattern. 16 is on the left end and does not move--everyone else moves clockwise to face the player/team on the other side.

       8 15  7 14  6 13  5
16 1
       9  2 10  3 11  4 12


If you can find some kind of near fit you might have to provide for makeup games or having extra rounds since it is going to be impossible for all matchups to be made each round. You will have to make the pairings by hand.

If you would like to see the above in a pairing table, click here and choose "Porter" and "Board Number". Good Luck!
