The user generated TBA has the same data as Assignor's TBA. (Date/Time/Arena)
This would allow users to know right away if they are available instead of having to sign on and go through the web site. Would also assist the scheduler in knowing faster which games were put up for grabs.
8 votesThis feature has been completed. TBA Requests from general members will now contain event information in the email that is sent. A formal notice will follow in our System Updates section.

Official Capability Report
Establish a feature where every member official has a single capability report which could summarize (calculate averages) capability ratings provided by only the Association schedulers (those who know of the official's capabilities). This capability report would be available in a separate column (like the manual ranking column) and would be available to schedulers to open when they are considering assigning an individual. The results of this report would desireably not be available for viewing by the official. A schedulers rating on an official's capabilities could be updated to reflect improved or decreased values at any time but the report will…

TBA Response Icon Feature
Set the TBA Response icon to the right of games, when selected, to display only those officials who have responded to the game's TBA Request. Process to upload all available members then sort by TBA Responses is too time consuming.
2 votesWhen accessing the assigning window for TBA games, the window will now automatically sort by TBA responses. This should eliminate the need to load the entire list and then run the sorting function.

Update of game fees for corrected game codes
Although infrequent, when game codes are changed/corrected after publishing, the scheduler is required to go in and manually update or recalculate the game fee. I would propose a feature which prompted the scheduler that "the new game code has a different game fee, would you like these to be automatically updated?" and then when approving the system automatically updates.
11 votesThis has been completed. The system will now detect during the edit process if a new game code and/or league has been used and will prompt the user to decide if they want to update the fees for the assigned officials as well. A formal announcement will follow in the coming days in the System Updates section. Thanks for the idea.

A column on the members page of reffing level & yrs of experience.
A column on the members page of reffing level & yrs experience. It might help with the "Qualified Only" responses.
3 votesA feature that handles this is already available, but it must be setup by your scheduler. I recommend contacting your scheduler to have them activate the feature(s). Thank you for the idea, though.

Providing feedback about fellow referees
If we need to do this BEFORE we can do anything else, then the link on the message needs to take us directly there. Right now, I get the message, but have to search for the game that is in question. If I haven't logged on for a while, then I will have to figure out "who" and "what game" we are talking about. More info. is needed if we are passing judgement on our fellows :-)
1 voteAn update has been made to the reminders section. If you have 1 rating to do, the link will take you directly to the rating. If you have 2+ ratings then you will be taken to the schedule page. In the effort of saving space, we cannot provide an individual link for every rating when you have more than one. The list could get very long and take up a great deal of space. There is, however, more information available (and has been for awhile) when you try to access a game. The message will tell you “You cannot view this game until you rate your fellow officials. You have an incomplete rating on 09/16/2010” This date serves as your information to assist you in finding which game is still waiting for a rating. Thanks for the suggestion – we have made a small update to accommodate your request.

Add to Default Game Schedule Display: CURRENT DATE to END OF SEASON (or a 60 and/or 90 day option).
I don't care about previous games but want to see the current date assignments all the way through the end of season (not just the current 30 days option) so I can easily see any conflicts or scheduling concerns.

7 votesThis feature was already somewhat in existence, however, we have added the Home team to the items that are now retained when adding a game. Now, the only items that are not retained are the time and the visiting team as these are the most frequently changed items.

The public calendar should have a filter that blocks unpublished games from general members view
Having the public schedule display all games, published and unpublished, allows for cherry picking to take place. The scheduler should be able to choose to have unpublished games not viewable.
15 votesThis feature has been completed. You may now restrict the public schedule to only display published games. This can be done from your System Settings. A formal announcement will follow in the System Updates section.

We have completed a new feature that addresses this issue. We’ve added a warning dialog that will warn you when a new game conflicts with a date/time/location of an existing game. This way you can see before submitting the game whether or not a conflict exists. Thank you for the idea.
