Active/Reserve Pools
This feature lets you and your poolies activate and bench players in your line-up from week to week.
The Administrator specifies a time each week (or everyday) when activations and benchings occur. Each poolie can select who to move from their password protected
Trash Talk page.
To enable this feature for your pool;
- Login as Administrator.
- Be certain that all your Poolie's Active players are drafted as C, R, L, D, G or TeamA. (Don't use Forwards 'F')
- Be certain that all your Poolie's Benched players are drafted as CustomA players.
- Ensure Configure Trash Talk is enabled.
- Set the correct scoring for Centers, Rightwing, Leftwing, Defence, Goalies and TeamA on the Customize Scoring page.
- Set CustomA scoring to all zeros on the Customize Scoring page.
- Go to Configure Active/Reserve link on the Admin page and Enable the feature.
- You can further customize the player type for CustomA players by changing the 3 letter position identifier on the Customize Charts page. (i.e. change it to BCH or RSV)
Each poolie should be given a unique Trash Talk password. On their Trash Talk page, they will see the Active/Reserve link.
For better formatting of the teams on the Daily Stats Page we suggest you enable
Compact Display on the Initialize & Edit Pool page so that multiple moves of a single player are collapsed into a single display line on the team charts. But this is not required.
Additionally, we could change the display on the Daily Stats Page so that Player movements do not show up until AFTER they are made (at the moment they are shown there the moment the poolie makes the roster move, but we understand poolies want to keep that info private until after the movement date). So far noone has requested this so we haven't implemented. Please contact us and we can discuss if this is something your pool would like!
We want to make your Hockey Pool, THE Hockey Pool
