| | The NFL (and perhaps other leagues) flexes its game schedule later in the season but I notice that is not reflected in the data I fetch from the endpoint

| | What do you mean by 'the NFL flexes'?
There's still another round of games to be played in the NFL and then playoff matches will hopefully be added automatically once they are known.

| | By flex I mean the games are already scheduled but they get changed later in the season. The Colts vs Texans and Ravens vs Steelers shows as 1/7/24 but the NFL changed the games to 1/6/24. Also there are inconsistencies in the times of the a lot of the games in both the strTime and strTimeLocal.

| | Hi, game dates are something which get updated automatically, so we just need to wait until the system adjusts those and the times are a knock on effect.
Hopefully they will be updated soon and I'll update the local times once they are.

| | This should be something that doesn't require manual update, but as you can see its having trouble right now. I'm trying to get the site admin to investigate on the Discord.
We welcome all the editing help we can get though.

| | Thanks both.
Seems NFL went into 2024 year (but 2023 season) which messed up the ID lookup logic. Should be fixed now.
Also fixed an issue with NCAA when the round is classed as "Bowls". I've converted it to a playoff game and now works properly.
Thanks again for identifying the issues. Should be good for the future as well now.

| | I've also updated all local times for NFL and newly added NCAA games, as well as updating TV info which wasn't being pulled through due to the wrong dates, more will follow in the coming days.

| | I really appreciate it! :-) I had the same problem with the season in my fetch logic. I set the season to $current so when 2024 hit it kept saying there was nothing to fetch. I'm glad it happened though because it exposed a flaw in my logic and now I have a fallback. Can't thank you guys enough for this service!

| | Sorry to be a pain! I noticed though that there is often a drastic difference between strTime and strTimeLocal as well as dateEvent and dateEventLocal. It seems that the Local date and time are accurate but the time I need a standardized time zone (preferably EST) which strTime seems to be when it's accurate. Unfortunately it often isn't

strTime is UTC, strTimeLocal is based off the UTC time so it should be just as accurate.

Always calculate from the UTC time which is strTime

| | Yeah it looks like the best approach is to use the dateEventLocal with the strTime

| | Just be aware that strLocal is added by me, manually (via a ), so please report any discrepancies you find, if any.

Should be every 2mins but people have reported it taking longer. Yet to see evidence of that though as each sport is different.

| | I appreciate you getting back to me! There doesn't happen to be a list of strStatus for the livescores API does there? I'm writing conditions to display different text based on the strStatus and was curious about what it is for overtime

| | I notice the dates (dateEvent) for NBA and NHL (could be other leagues too) games in both the schedule and live scores are for a day in the future. Is there a reason for that? I just need to know the logic so I can set my code accordingly (i.e. if it's always a day ahead I can subtract a day on my end before rendering it). I think we talked about it before and I was using the dateEventLocal. The problem is it's NULL.

as already replied by Curswine on Discord, times are UTC

I noticed that hockey (at least in the NHL) is P1, P2, P3. Does that mean the strStatus for other time periods may be different for hockey?
