Warrior General Games

Not sure what the rules are on this but some times I can get a Scrimmage that's on the next Hour... Sometimes I have to wait till later or the next Day. If I have to spend Flex for this, Shouldn't I be able to set the time I want this Scrimmage to Sim?

It is a scrimmage on demand. Meaning you get a scrim as soon as the next possible slot is open.

I've found that the scrims will be set to the top of the hour. If you set a quick scrim at say 6:01, the scrim will take place at 7:00.
If it's set at 6:45, it will take place at 7:00.

If the team you're scrimmaging has other games set, it will run at the nearest available time.

i don't mind the wait--- the scrims can be more valuable if both teams have prepared--but all depends on what you want to test out.

being able to scrimmage your own team would be ideal, but that's apparently impossible to code.

Past the hour will play at the next full hour. The 6:45 game would be at 8:00 1 hour and 15 minutes. This is what I've noticed.

I think dark may have a typo.

the server cant even keep up with running scheduled games within the hour, you're naive enough to think they can just run them willy nilly whenever somebody clicks a button?

Nope. almost every time I set a quick scrim at :45 to the hour, it starts in 15 min.

This is true most times, but some is the next Day and I know the Team I scheduled isn't Playing Games all through the night at every hour, lol.

True, lol.

Scrims on demand are based on a set number of slots being available. Once all the slots from one hour are full it starts filling the next hour. Of course, it also takes into account the availability of the teams involved. For example...

Team A - Plays on even days, no scrimmages scheduled.
Team B - Plays on even days, scrim scheduled on "today" at 4:00.
Team A wants an instant scrim with team B. "Today" is an odd day. Time is 2:03pm.

If there is an available slot in the 3:00 hour, the scrimmage will be scheduled at that time. The process will stop. If 3:00 is not available, it will check 4:00.
The system will not allow a scrim at 4:00 since Team B is already playing then.
The system will check for open slots in the 5:00 hour. If available, the scrimmage will happen at 5:00. Otherwise it will keep checking until the next available slot.

So, even though its considered "on demand" there needs to be a slot available or it can't happen.

I just was fixing to Schedule one with Adriatic Sea Wasp and it said D18 then went back and found a Legacy Team and it let me Schedule one on the hour... I still don't get it?
