I have just opened an event "2012 AWL." I get the idea that the scheduler is a universal tool, ie. if you enter times for one event you've entered times for them all. Is that correct?
 
Ratings for this round have been finalized and are visible on the wiki. Overall season budget is 35,100. Managers have 24 hours, until 00:00 UTC Tuesday, to submit their rosters.

I think not, as I have in the past entered times that didn't register because I had them in the wrong event.

I think the rules says to use peak WHRH, but it looks like you have just taken current WHRH?

Right you are Fritz.
 
Page for entering game times is:
 
http://arimaa.com/arimaa/events/selectTimes.cgi?e=2012awl
 
I will also add a link to my signature.
 
Thank you Fritz for pointing out my mistake in not using peak WHR. I am updating the wiki now. Season budget is 35,640.

Apologies, I forgot to include Harren and the default 1,500 rating of three newcomers in my budget calculation. Revised figure is 35,280.

The Twitter account (link in my signature) still has only 1 follower. I'm going to be setting up the Twitter account to automatically announce all games twice, once 24 hours and once 2 hours before they start. If enough people will find that useful...
 
EDIT: Before anybody panics, I have updated the wiki with this round's games but I won't be scheduling them yet for a couple of hours...

Shame... I've set up automatic updates to announce games in advance. If it catches on I'll do it for the following rounds too.

Proposed rule change for next time: set the budget at 36000 regardless of who signs up.  It seems absurd that the budget was tightened after a season in which every team struggled to stay within budget.  The formula for calculating some number other than 36000 assumes that everyone who expressed interest on the survey will actually play, which we know is not true, especially for people who have never played before and just thought it sounded like a cool idea.
 
In the case of the AWL budget, the experience of past leagues will be a better guide to the future than semi-random survey responses.
