have a column called Playoff Wins (keep for every team) and pull the win normally. then in another excel column called Playoff Points multiply playoff win column by 2. then for every team if(conference standing = top 2, then +8 to playoff points) then for every team if(total playoff points = 32, then +20 to total points), , then if(all 5 teams by owner have playoff wins >0, +20 to playoff points). then add all to Total Points Column
are you able to pull conference standings 1-12? if not, then the +8 for first round bye may have to be entered manually. but the rest can be modeled in excel with if(x,then y,else x) statements
For your latter sentence, yes I am planning to do that. It is pretty straightforward. It is already how I calculate playoff teams and I have a method elsewhere that I already put together for counting byes. All that is pretty simple for me.
My screen scraper only scrapes the league pages. Scraping the actual results pages is a much larger undertaking and involves some step through logic that would probably break the request limit that Google sets on Sheets. I did something similar to this in Excel in season 1 but accessibility was a problem for most of the people I shared it with, which is why I went to Sheets.
Ultimately, my plan is to have a score column that contain all the logic I can script within the limits WiS and Google set for me. And worse case scenario I manually populate the playoff wins and championships column for calc'ing the rest of the score.
