@ all HGL-PL teams on Season 5:

Tassie Devils (Tazdevil); TD (38697)
San Fernando VR (VR75); SAN (77070)
borteam (bort); BOR (46607)
M.L.S. REICH (impero); MLS (39615)

You need to create an own HGL-PL box score post for Season 5 for your team, by responding to this message/post.

You can copy-paste everything below the line of stars (********************************) that you can find below, to your box score post.
Process is simple: you just exclude (remove) that match on every round in which you don't play in, and then provide a match link to your post when you have created that match challenge.
In other words, when you have organized a match, you go to your team schedule, click on a match, and then see the address line of the browser and note the match number, and then in below "[match=XXX]" you replace XXX with the correct match number.

Remember: I will verify all matches before they are played, so it is of utmost of importance of everyone providing match links to their own box score posts before HGL-PL starts.
But I can not verify court balance before match starts, so be very careful to only organize matches on neutral court only!

When the matches have been played, you also edit it to include all match scores in written numbers (you can see my actual HGL box score post on Season 5, to get an example of it, here: (331391.22).


So reply to this post by copying everything below that line of stars to your teams' own box score post, and edit it as needed:
********************************

This is my teams' own box score post for HGL-PL on Season 5:

HGL-PL Round 1, Monday July 20th, 2026:
#TD-SAN [match=XXX]
MLS-#BOR [match=XXX]

HGL-PL Round 2, Friday July 24th, 2026:

#MLS-SAN [match=XXX]

HGL-PL Round 3, Sunday July 26th, 2026:
TD-#MLS [match=XXX]
#SAN-BOR [match=XXX]

Note: # sign in front of team name means it's their responsibility to send Pickup match challenge!

*******
EDIT: As everyone can see, things below have been completed, so of course this post can be ignored for now; I'll keep it here for now as other HGL manager has replied to this post so I don't prefer to use it for another purpose currently (as his reply refers to this post).

(End of an EDIT).



We are in a rush if and as we want to start Season 5 in time, hence the direct way of communication:

Still to this moment Alanurmon Rikkaat (ALA) has not created box score post for their team for Season 5.

They have been contacted, as I mentioned.

ALA has been online after my latest reminder, but no response to my message (or created box score post) - I don't know if matches have been properly created or not.


@all: it's 38 hours until the planned start of HGL Season 5. We need to step up our game a notch and finish strong, in order being able to get things done in time, so I ask everyone to make sure everything is as is supposed to be in terms of everybody having all of their Season 5 matches organized in their BB schedule.

Also, as many managers as possible, please try to click game links on other HGL managers' box score posts; do they work (or not, like is the case when I try to click them)?

I'm just waiting on ALA

Thanks for info. I have match against ALA organized myself, but many seem to have that exact match missing.

Now at least ED, TRO, HGK, myself, and a non-HGL team Reghin Bulls have reported about same issue, so maybe this is real issue with all of us, yes?

Can everybody or at least some HGL managers please try to click HGL match links on their own BB schedule to see if they work?
For me they work that way, and that to me is the strange part.

It makes me think how links can be broken, as I don't think anything should've changed during BB server migration, and for instance:
- pressing basketball icon on BB text (post) editing window produces same kind of string of text, [match=XXX]
- going to tactics set up-page on my first HGL match (vs. LMS) produces same kind of text as usual: https://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/138830137/tactics.aspx


When I change that match number to typical box score link (*boxscore.aspx), it then produces a typical Oops-error message.
(In other words, when I open that match from my BB schedule page, it opens tactics/match set up-page > then when I replace text 'tactics' on browser address line with 'boxscore' I get the error message)

Speaking of which, can somebody please try to do the same experiment as described above so we could see if it's only me that this problem is haunting?

I'm just waiting on ALA

ALA (Alanurmon Rikkaat) contacted me 3 hours ago and told he sent rest of match challenges (which he wrote to his box score post as well, which he yesterday created).

@all: Everyone please accept ALA's match offers (if they are 100% correct, of course) if you haven't yet organized match against him, even though it's not sure first Round(s) of match(es) will be accepted as result - we just have to take that risk with tokens (reorganizing some matches would take some tokens) as BB's actions seems to be out of our control.

Still no reply from BB-Staff on Bug report made by MrJ.

Another manager (not from BB-Staff) little Guest had replied like this to that bug report:

It seems that games that haven't started yet show an Oops! page on the boxscore page, not just pickup games but also league games, cup games, and BBM games.

Like I asked before:
Does anyone know what's the best way to reach BB-Staff, as I don't use Discord?
I sent a quick message on that bug thread (as a reply on MrJ's thread) asking assistant from BB-Staff especially, but like I said, maybe quicker method to reach them directly would be better? Yes, no? Any experience on that, anyone?

I noted something.
On the right menu, if I click on "Give Orders" for my game vs Vistur Portici (tomorrow), BB opens the right page, and I can manage my rosters...
When I click on "OK", everything is fine.

I guess we could let the games start, hoping that all are organized correctly and then check all 9 just as they've begun. If they all have begun, then that would practically still make the games legit, without having to move these onto the next weeks?
