Mine is all about Tassie. The mission is every score of every game ever played in the state in the one place. If it's Top Tier - TFL, NT, NW or rep, it gets the full treatment - 4Q's, venue, attendance, date, winner and margin, goalkickers and full teams...the only thing missing from your average newspaper report is Best Players. If it's a Lower Tier league or Res/U, then it gets a single line score with home team first and just missing goalkickers. On top of that, BF's, coaches, captains...all organised in a variety of ways across over 300 files. All displayed on word docs and I made up an Excel program to calculate ladders (a little perk is that this generates GBP scores for every game, so my Top Tier scores have a full ladder for every round). I don't use Excel for compilation, because it's messy - I've always tried to find that perfect balance between presentation and functionality, and I think what I've settled upon does that. Once I've got a full score, I can CTRL-C/V the crap out of it and make up all sorts of things, which is why I love Word...many of my working notes have PrtSc images throughout as well.
Sources - Kingpin, Bassoon, Phil, Ozguy, and a guy called Simon who might be Todman here. There's also Ray from the Tas Past Players FB site, Matt H from the same place who has managed to score every Tas Footy Record imaginable and regularly gets pestered by me to get his phone out and start sending screenshots, and also the president of the St Pats footy club who gave me every Tas amateur score ever...champions all. Trove, Sportingpulse and PlayHQ - will have to urgently copy every damned thing I can find off SP, because it's about to go the way of the dinosaur...learned that lesson getting slack with the SFL, a comp that doesn't gaf about it's history and deletes everything periodically. Also, the last couple of times I visited Tassie I went to the library and got onto the microfiche...just a fortnight ago, I was in the Lton and Glenorchy libraries and got nearly every TFL and NTFL gap sorted. I'll post the last remaining q's here if anyone's got answers. When on microfiche, I don't bother PDF'ing, waste of time...I just maximise the image and print screen onto a waiting Word doc, much quicker...
Here's a couple of docs:
1) Excel Ladder calculator. It works by inputting the score into each round, own team on the left and opposition on the right. You'll figure it out. I've also added the NTFL working doc, which shows how far it can go.
2) 2022 Tasmanian footy season. I've done the last few years like this, and the ultimate aim is to have every season since 1879 in this common format. Still to complete, but this one is the closest.
3) 2023 Player stats. Again, not finished, but eventually it will condense into a smaller one...you can work out what it means.
