Using the H2H Matchup Planner for ESPN leagues

Hey everyone,

Just a quick heads up that in order for the H2H Matchup Planner (and Beast Mode) to work for ESPN leagues you first need to select your team in the settings page.

This lets the tools know which of the teams is yours (this isn't needed for Yahoo leagues since this can be identified when importing your Yahoo league).

I'll be putting out a guide tonight on using the H2H Matchup Planner, but if you're having issues accessing the page please send me an email via hello@hashtagfs.com

PS. This is currently only available for H2H category leagues, but I'm working on a version for points leagues. It's currently not active for Fantrax leagues since scoreboard data isn't available in their API, but I have a workaround in mind.

Chat soon,
Joey

Hey! Any update on this? I still haven't been able to see next-day data on my ESPN scoreboard :(

Von

Like both ideas! I've got a version ready that's color coded, I'm just monitoring the performance of the page before adding that in. I'll also check if games played is available in the API.

Ha yeah, I've been hammering those update buttons - I'll PM you my league id, appreciate the help!

Von

It’s supposed show data once the scoreboard has been updated. Can you try clicking the update scoreboard from ESPN button and let me know if it’s still empty? If it is, can you send me your league id? I’ll look a little deeper into it for you.

Gotcha, thanks - is the Before section supposed to show no data, though? (I also can't see win probabilities, do I need to reconfigure?)

Von

ESPN's scoreboard API feed gets updated after the games have been completed for the night. So it's not a live feed like Yahoo's.

Hey! I can't seem to get ESPN data from last night to show up in the H2H planner - is this because we're using FTA for our 9th cat? If so, is this going to be added soon?

Von

This is a dope feature. Couple quick suggestions/requests: 1. Color-coding winners on the scoreboard to make it easier to parse. 2. A "# games played" tracker (total or, even better, per day) so we can track how close we are to hitting the weekly limit.

Just to confirm, did you click the update button after putting -1 in the missed fields?

I tried it last night but not sure if I did it correctly. It’s-1 for miss shots and turnovers while rebs, assists, steals, and blocks. Points are 2 and 3’s with free throws 1. I didn’t see a negative correlation for turnovers when trying to adjust the scoring.

There's currently no draft tracker for ESPN leagues since live draft data isn't available in their API. You can enter your scoring system into this page and draft off the list if that helps? https://hashtagbasketball.com/fantasy-basketball-points-league-rankings

What can I use for a H2H points league for ESPN? I tried the Hashtag extension but that didn’t work. I got a draft at 930 pm tonight.
