Good idea, novacat!
I just forwarded the Rockies roster to Omar.
If Omar isn't available, another alternative could be to have the four captains reveal their rosters and let the players self-schedule.

Omar has generously agreed to schedule the games. If you have not already, please submit your roster to him.

I've done it. I've also updated the wiki page, please let me know if I've made any mistakes. I don't think there were any substitutions...

Thanks for the scheduling, but there seems to be a mistake in the match Europa vs Ring of Fire: Our highest-rated player (Boo) is playing the their lowest-rated one (foggy), and so on.
Looking at the wiki, I think Europa's player are ordered in the wrong way.

My mistake. Sorry for that.
I have sent the players for team Europa in the wrong order.
I hope it is not too late to reschedule the games for top and bottom players.

Can anyone explain to me how it would be fair if the budget expenditures are going to be calculated on the basis of ratings that weren't available to the teams at the time they forwarded their rosters, not knowing whether to go through the trouble of determining what they should have been or to simply take the figures that were shown on the wiki at the time?

Thanks for all your work Megajester. Round 4 is not updated in the wiki. There were some subs for this round, but you can go to the event games page and see the correct games. Gthreepwood was rated 1636.3 (his rating at the time is confirmed in the chat room, see Sept. 20th), so the Atlantics are actually 60 points lower in total remaining budget. rht144 was rated below ginrunner, so no change to the budget there.

The peak WHRH ratings of the Monday prior to scheduling are the values used per the rules. I can see the argument that people could think that portion of the wiki was up to date (even though the rest was not), but given that every team is just under their budget (or just under the next penalty point), I think all the captains were well aware of what the costs were, or none of the changes ended up mattering. The only exception could be the Atlantics, but I did check the WHRH before deciding the roster.

Yes, the Rockies were also tracking the changes to the WHRH peak ratings and the roster submitted was decided upon using rating values identical to those now posted on the wiki.

I just noticed the final AWL standings were posted. Congrats again to the Atlantics now that it is official. It was great to have every team in contention down to the wire. The budget was indeed a bit tight this season, at least judging by the total of 15(!) penalty points assessed, but overall the budget mechanism seems to be working to keep the teams balanced, give everyone playing time, and ultimately have the champions decided on the board.
A big thanks to megajester for running the league once again! The AWL has transformed from an interesting experiment to a proven institution. It is now hard for me to imagine going from one World Championship to the next with no AWL in between, and it is all owing to megajester.

Joel, if you are too busy to administer a second season before year end, how would you feel about someone else taking the reins? Given a seven week season, it would need to start next week to finish before Christmas, but there is still time to make it happen if someone wants to step up. And by "someone" I mean "definitely not me", since I'll be preparing to organize the World Championship.

I would rather that if possible. I can send anyone who wants it the spreadsheet I've been using to organise the League if they message me and give me their email address.
