I'm playing around with a fantasy football system I came across on SourceForge trying to add a bunch of capabilities it lacks. Anyway, one of the nuisances is that the schedule has to be created in completely manual fashion. I figure there's got to be some way to automate this, but I'm having trouble putting it together.
Here's a basic situation: say there are 10 teams A through J, broken into two divisions A-E and F-J. Each team should play each other team in the division twice and each other team not in the division once. This works out to a 13 week season, and A's list of teams to play is B,B,C,C,D,D,E,E,F,G,H,I,J (the other teams have similar known lists). Anybody know how to then take these 10 lists and fashion a viable set of pairings out of them? I'd appreciate any input.
