I have all my spreadsheets for inputting the data, but because I don't have any automated way of grabbing the data (the data on the player page is set to blowout adjusted) because the data isn't in the same place for every player on the player homepage: the data varies based on position, and then varies even then by archetype.

As a result, it involves a lot of pasting links into the browser and manually typing the data into the cells in the spreadsheet. Then for some data, it isn't listed at all on the player page (fumbles for some arch TEs... or was it WRs?) and you need to get the data from the player's full season stats.

Most of the work comes from setting up the tables in the various tabs at the start of the season, most of the rest of the work is filling in the player data. This season there were 93 players selected, so the level of work is based on the # of different players selected.

If some tech savvy WLer can figure out a way to automate the data, I will run it again this season, if not I can send someone who is good with spreadsheets last years and they can take it over.

There weren't many blowout games last season, so it might be possible to switch to non-blowout stats, which might be easier to automate, as they are all in the same place for every player in the full season stats.

Switch to non-blowout stats (unless someone guts). Pull the values off of the league (or conference) stats page instead. If your dot can't make it in the top 50 for the rankings page, it's a non-factor anyway and his stats won't be tabulated.

Yeah, if some stats weren't going to count.

What if it is a receiving HB who gets 5 rushing TDs over the course of the season? His stats wouldn't appear on the rushing catagory and therefore wouldn't be included.

I actually have a module that can output a league's stats for the day in CSV format, with every column, every player_id, the game_id, and their related team_id. It can do either adjusted or non adjusted stats depending on the query you give it. It does daily stats, not full season, however it could be modified to do seasonal stats.

Would that be helpful to something like this?

It's a little bit database intensive, so I'd prefer to PM it to somebody who would use it for scripting rather than posting it on the forum for 1000 people to click on randomly.

Bort, that would be fantastic. I would only run it every four games to do the update. If you PM it to me or email it, I can keep running this.
