Title: Home teams clash
Post by: angus1964 on October 19, 2024, 01:50:19 AM
Years ago I had a formula for our darts league which ensured when two teams shared a board, they were both not drawn at home.
I used to write out the numbers like this.
1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9 10
Then rotate round to form the schedule. 
But now I cant remember how I did it, and all attempts are no where near.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

My Excel spreadsheet (https://www.devenezia.com/round-robin/forum/index.php?topic=1132.0) can help you do this.  Note that it does not work on an apple mac.  There are some more details in this thread (https://www.devenezia.com/round-robin/forum/index.php?topic=3882.msg6665#msg6665), but basically if you view the single or double round robin in home/away format and "do not randomize" then you should find it relatively easy to pair up the teams who share a venue, by looking for the sequences of back-ground color that are out of step with each other.
