Easy access to personal foul totals

Post by rolltiderobert » Wed Nov 17, 2010 10:03 am

Where is the easiest way to see a player's personal foul totals?

I don't need to see a players assist total on the main page. Who cares in the 3rd quarter how many assists a player has? I do need to see personal fouls at a quick glance. When I enter a foul, where can I see the personal foul total for that player?

Actually, the personal fouls for each player are located right on the Player Button in the scoring interface. For the players in the game, you will see their foul count right on the button that represents that player.

Replace assists with personal fouls. I need to know how many fouls my players on the bench have at any time for substitutions. I agree with above posts that we don't needs assists by player during the game.

Add quick link option to see current stats for full game instead.

We will figure out a way to show all player's Fouls in a future release. Replacing existing functionality with different functionality (e.g. removing Assists) is usually not our preferred approach because there may be people that are using that information.

Have been coaching for a long time and never made a substitution decision based on number of assists a player has in a game. However, always making subs based on number of fouls. Need to know foul count for all players at all times. I would bet if you polled users they would agree to replace assists with fouls.

Not all people using iScore are coaches making subsitution decisions. It is also used by announcers, broadcasters, stat keepers, parents, and others. Announcing the number of assists or being able to quickly recognize "double doubles" or "triple doubles" is very common for some of these folks, so they would not be happy if we removed that functionality.

As noted, we will figure out a way to show personal fouls in a manner that works for your use case in an upcoming release, and we believe we can do so without removing functionality that others may be using.
