Roll over builds next season from this one’s final table, using the promoted and relegated per box numbers in Settings. The top few go up, the bottom few go down, everyone else stays. Box 1 only sends players down and the bottom box only sends them up. It is on every paid plan, and not on One Box.
It arrives as a plan, not a decision. Drag players between boxes or tap a name to move it, add anyone who has joined, and sit out anyone who is away. Before you commit it tells you what it noticed. Matches still unplayed. Someone going down who never played a match. And if two players finished level at the promotion cut, which tie-break separated them. Once you have moved somebody it stops redrawing the plan over your work, so changing the numbers along the top means pressing Start again from the table. The new season is created as a draft for you to check, then take live.
Making people play
Settings carries a third rollover number beside the two above: matches you must play to go up. It starts at 0, which means it is off and everyone is promoted on where they finished.
Set it above 0 and two rules come on, both of them what club rule pages usually say:
- A player who has played fewer than that many matches is not eligible for promotion. They are skipped and the next player down goes up instead, so the box still sends the same number up and the boxes stay the size they were.
- A player who has played no matches at all goes down, wherever they finished. That is a relegation on top of the usual ones, so a box can send more down than it takes up.
The roll-over screen names everybody it moves for either reason, by name and with their match count, because a rule nobody is told about looks exactly like a bug. The screen also has the number on it, so you can try a value and see who it would catch before you save anything.
You are not the one doing the chasing. Clayside nudges anybody with a match still to play 14, 7, 3 and 1 days before the season ends, naming how many they owe. Players can also offer each other times from the fixture itself. See Notifications and Arranging a match. If you want to say something yourself, there is one message to the whole club, capped at two a week.
