Finalizing Games

Finalizing Games – GameChanger (zendesk.com)

Finalizing Your Game

Once you have reached the end of your game you will be notified (triggered by your innings/game setting which can be changed in the Settings option under the Game Menu).

You will be instructed to go to the Game Menu and tap the Game Over option if this is, in fact, the end of the game.

If the game was scored offline be sure to re-open the application and sign in to your account once you have re-entered a location with an Internet connection (WiFi/4G).

Pitching Decisions

Upon selecting Game Over you will be given the option to assign pitching decisions for the game, if applicable. However, pitching decisions may also be assigned through the post-game box score.

Unfinished Games

If you have a game on your team's schedule that is listed as unfinished, you can open the game in the app and finalize it using the above instructions.

Post-Game Box Score

After a game has been finalized the post-game box score will be available for review in the app. To view it, select the game from the Events tab or individual team Schedule tab, then choose the Box Score option.

Resuming a Finalized Game

If you finalize a game and wish to either resume scoring or correct a scoring play through the app, you may always re-enter a previously finalized game.

Please follow the steps outlined below to do so:

1) Open the app from the same device and the same admin account on which the game was originally scored.
2) Find the game under your team schedule or in the Events tab.
3) Select the game and choose Resume Scoring.
4) You will be taken to the point in the game where it was previously finalized.

IMPORTANT: Once you finalize a game, a Recap Story is produced. This Recap Story will not update any additional plays you score after the initial finalization. If you are finalizing a game, which you know you will likely resume scoring at a later point in time, we advise you to choose the option Exit Game rather than End Game. You may create and score additional games before you resume scoring again.
