As you may have noted, all participating teams of HGL will be required to send box score links for all of their regular season games to this HGL Scores Season 3 Official Thread before Season 3 starts.

First notes A)-F), and then instructions on how to complete the process.

Notes:
A)these score links will be added to one post per manager, that can then be edited throughout the season if needed.
Links will be added to one post/manager to avoid overcrowding of HGL Scores thread, and for being easily searchable.
B) links to every match box scores (from your post) will be copied to the official HGL Scores Thread's 'Schedule/scores'-post, so that each team has access to box scores of every match easily
C) in Playoffs, we will use that same box score post created by each team
D) please never delete box score post then created by you, we might need it a lot later in order to confirm things.
E) to see what filled box score post should look like: (326590.44). Please still read through instructions below before proceeding.
F) to create your own teams' box score post for Season 3, copy-paste everything to your own post (below * * * * * * *) from here: (328547.14)

Instructions on how to proceed with writing one post about your HGL box score links:
Remember: you can't finish this process completely before all HGL matches for regular season are organized properly and visible in your team schedule page.

(Season 1 info post: (326590.43)).

1. Go to your official BB schedule page, which is found from https://www.buzzerbeater.com/team/XXXXXX/schedule.aspx
(where X is your team number)
2. Click "Tactics/match instructions"-link (between team names) on your HGL match that you wish to link. (It is the link what you use to set up your lineup and tactics for the match).
3. Once you enter on tactics/line up setting page, match number of that Pickup (PU) match is revealed to you in the browser's address line. It looks like this: https://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/XXXXXXXXX/tactics.aspx and number in place of this XXXXXXXXX is your match number.

Now at this point, you have two ways to proceed, described below as 4A (that all managers used during Season 1) and 4B.
Choose a preferable way for you and please stick with it for the whole season.
Method 4A would be preferable.


In your box score-post on HGL Scores Season 2 Official Thread, you enter links for 15 matches.
For each game include Round number, a day game is played on, and name of your opponent (like in my box score post).

So to your post, link the box score in either way:

4A):
By following above instructions you are on the match tactics page already, so copy/make note of the number of the PU match (visible at web browsers' address line). Then on this thread update it to your box score link post, and do so by using 'a basketball button' on the page into where you write text to be sent to forum; that is located above the text frame. Pressing a button will automatically create a string of text such as '[match=XXX.XX]', and as you replace XXX.XX with your match number, the box score link will be automatically created. It will create a functional link to a match box score, which will look like this: (132386153).

4B) by a direct web page link to box score, such as: https://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/XXX/boxscore.aspx (in where XXX represents the match number). You can simply access this by visiting above mentioned match tactics page. By following above instructions you are on the match tactics page already, so Pickup match number is visible to you. If you choose to use this 4B-method, you can copy-paste https://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/XX/boxscore.aspx-link to your season box scores link 15 times (one for each match) on every line, and then for each line replace XX with your Pickup match number.

5. Do this with all matches

TBA #15 (What everyone who participates to Season 2 of HGL needs to do now-post)


Season 3 HGL Threads (main and scores thread) have now been set up, so HGL related conversation will mainly take place in those Threads from now on.

What everyone who participates to Season 3 of HGL needs to do now:

1. At least briefly check out your season schedule (posts 5 and 6 on Season 3 Scores Thread, link at the end of post); I didn't notice anything special/faulty in it, but having another eyes to check it too doesn't harm.
(Note: Basically we should be good to go, as I re-used Season 2 Schedule by editing it as little as possible considering we have 1 joining team, but anyone possibly spotting any problems please let me know. I did however change challenge responsibilities of a HGL joining team VIV from 0 to 12, as SRS had 0 challenge responsibilities on Season 2, as BUC used to have 12 responsibilities/regular season).

2. Create an own box score post for your team, just like during Seasons 1 and 2.
As an idea for your convenience (and to retain preferred standard for HGL) you can respond to this message (328547.14) and from that post of mine copy-paste everything below * * * * * * * to your own box score post (and only change your team name/abbreviation, opponent name for each Regular Season round, and add match links to it as soon as matches for Season 3 have been organized by you and your opponents).
If you need a memory refresher on how your box score post for the season works/how you edit it once you have box score links to add, you can read this post: (328546.13).

3. Familiarize yourself with match organization process if it's new thing for you or if you need a refresher (guide currently available on 'Announcement'-posts on both Official Threads) and ask questions (if needed) preferably before you'll start the process.

4. Start organizing HGL Regular Season matches (sending and accepting Pickup match challenges, 15 per team during Season 3)

As you all have likely noticed (when being on this Thread), you'll find Official Season 3 HGL Threads from here:
