Bye rounds in OBBLM?

[Talarius]

Hi OBBLM experts (again),

We currently have 9 players in our league. Is there a way for me to give a player some form of bye round in OBBLM? (We are running a Free-for-All schedule)

Thanks!

Just don't schedule them a match?

Well, as not everyone will get a Bye, it seems like in order to keep things fair, they should get credit for a loss or tie, an MVP and some gold to keep up with the rest of us. We're playing a short first season to the league, only 6 rounds.

You can just make admin changes to a team?

Ah, I see, you don't mean a total bye. In that case just add a "spare" coach to the league and schedule them against that, then give them a 1-0 (or whatever) victory and MVP/winnings as whatever you decide as a league. If you don't want to give them a score just manually add the winnings/MVP.

That should work. Thanks to you both!

Our league uses a bye to reset all injuries before playoffs (we give everyone a free week between the regular season end and playoff start). So I just created a separate team named BYE and I create matches. I also use a points formula with negative SMP, so that I can make the BYE worth no points.
