Football-scoreboard only. The same work is prepared for the other eight sports plugins and deliberately held back, so each can be judged on its own board rather than nine changing at once. #333 holds the all-plugins version and is on hold as the source for the rest.

Verified on a live 128x32 board (ledpi) for a day, plus 28 offline checks in this plugin's own suite.

The headline

ledpi's journal, before: 89 visits to ncaa_fb_upcoming in six hours, showing the same two games every time — and neither of them a favourite. After: the ranked slate cycles in about twenty minutes with both favourites on screen throughout.

What was broken

The settings from #332 never reached the code. Managers read a translated config and that translation is an explicit whitelist. All five keys were declared in the schema, rendered in the UI, read by sports.py — and dropped in between. Set one, save, nothing happens.

The rotation could not work. _other_games_window only ran from update(), which returns early until upcoming_update_interval — an hour, and not settable by anyone. So other_rotation_interval_seconds: 240 produced one jump of fifteen windows per hour, not fifteen slices. It now re-cuts on the display path: one list slice and a sort, no network.

College rankings were never loaded. fetch_standings tried /standings first and fell back to /rankings only on a 404, but college football answers /standings with HTTP 200 and no rankings key, so the fallback never fired. Nothing failed, nothing logged: the rank badge never appeared however show_ranking was set, and the ranked filter passed every game because an empty table fails open.

football/college-football/standings   200, no "rankings" key
football/college-football/rankings    200, 3 ranking blocks
football/nfl/standings                200
football/nfl/rankings                 404

Requests nobody wanted. Each poll was fetched once per configured group rather than once. Leagues with no poll retried a 404 every update — ~2,900 a day per league. The FBS/FCS group lookup ran for any league whose name contained college; ESPN publishes those rosters for college football alone and 500s or returns empty for the rest.

What selection does now

Favourites first, always, with the slots shared between your teams — each gets its next game before any gets a second. Walked across a real 901-game season with two favourites at a limit of 2, nine days showed one team twice and the other not at all.

The other slots take ranked games, best matchup first, one game per team. That last part matters more than it sounds: the upcoming list is a whole season, not a week — ledpi logs Found 947 total upcoming games — so ordering by rank alone put the #1 team's twelve games above the #2 team's first one and the board walked one team's schedule.

The division filter needs one side in a checked division, not both. Requiring both silently removed five of twenty ranked matchups: a ranked side hosting an FCS school is still a game about a team you checked the box for.

Safety

Every filter fails open, and now the set of them does too — if they leave nothing at all, the unfiltered list is used rather than blanking the mode. other_..._games_to_show: 0 is still an explicit "favourites only" and still goes quiet.

broadcast reads coverage off the slate: the payload always carries the key and it is simply empty in leagues ESPN publishes no listings for, so the usual missing-means-allowed reading never fired and the setting removed every non-favourite game there.

Config values clamp to their declared ranges. A string where an integer belongs raised inside update()'s own try/except — which surfaces as a mode that renders nothing, indistinguishable from "no games today".

Newly reachable settings

recent_update_interval, upcoming_update_interval and stale_game_timeout were read by the code and reachable by nobody: not declared, not translated, permanently at their defaults.

Guards

  • scripts/check_selection_settings.py finds every settings block structurally and requires each setting the plugin's own code reads. Deriving the requirement from the code is what lets these nine plugins be ported one at a time without a red build.
  • run_plugin_tests now names the checks that failed instead of the last line logged — which, for a script that warns on stderr, was that warning whether the run passed or failed. Nine plugins failed CI with an identical uninformative reason before this.

Verification

28 passed, 1 skipped, 0 failed in this plugin's suite. Repo guards pass (test_odds_centre_collision fails identically on main — pre-existing, confirmed in a clean worktree). Every behavioural change has an ablation that fails its own check and no others.

…works

Football-scoreboard only. The same work is prepared for the other eight sports
plugins and is deliberately held back so each can be judged on its own board
rather than nine changing at once.

Selection
- Five settings added in #332 never reached the display code. Managers read a
  translated config and that translation is an explicit whitelist, so every one
  of them was declared in the schema, rendered in the UI, read by sports.py and
  dropped in between: set it, save it, nothing happens.
- Other games are filtered by quality -- ranked by default -- instead of taken
  in kickoff order. On a real board's college slate, 923 non-favourite upcoming
  games, 235 of them involving a ranked team.
- Within that pool the better matchup leads, and each team appears once. The
  upcoming list is a whole SEASON, not a week -- ledpi logs 947 games -- so
  ordering by rank alone put the #1 team's twelve games above the #2 team's
  first one, and the board walked one team's schedule.
- Favourite slots are shared between your teams: each gets its next game before
  any gets a second. Walked across a real 901-game season with two favourites
  at a limit of 2, nine days showed one team twice and the other not at all.
- The FBS/FCS filter needs one side in a checked division, not both. Requiring
  both silently removed five of twenty ranked matchups -- a ranked side hosting
  an FCS school is still a game about a team you asked for.
- ncaa_fb defaults to five games with no favourite team, rather than one.

Data
- College rankings came from the wrong endpoint. /standings was tried first and
  /rankings only on a 404, but college football answers /standings with 200 and
  no rankings key, so the fallback never fired: the rank badge never appeared
  and the ranked filter passed everything, an empty table failing open.
- Each poll is fetched once, not once per configured group.
- Leagues with no poll no longer request one -- roughly 2,900 dead requests a
  day, per league, at a 30s interval.
- The FBS/FCS group lookup runs for college football alone, the one league ESPN
  publishes those rosters for. Everywhere else it 500s or returns an empty list.
- The division cache expires instead of being held for the life of the process.

Pacing
- The rotation now re-cuts the slice on the display path. It only ever ran from
  update(), which returns early until upcoming_update_interval -- an hour, and
  not settable -- so a four-minute rotation produced one jump of fifteen
  windows once an hour. ledpi showed the same two matchups 89 times in six
  hours; it now cycles the ranked slate in about twenty minutes.
- recent_update_interval, upcoming_update_interval and stale_game_timeout are
  declared and translated. They were read by the code and reachable by nobody.

Safety
- The filters fail open as a set, not only per check: if they leave nothing at
  all, the unfiltered list is used rather than blanking the mode. Asking for 0
  other games is still an explicit "favourites only".
- "broadcast" reads coverage off the slate. The payload always carries the key
  and it is simply empty in leagues ESPN publishes no listings for, so the
  usual missing-means-allowed reading never fired and the setting removed every
  non-favourite game there.
- A loaded poll that matches no game on the schedule now warns, throttled, and
  names the abbreviations it holds.
- Config values are clamped to their declared ranges. A string where an integer
  belongs raised inside update()'s own try/except, which surfaces as a mode
  that renders nothing.

Repo guards
- scripts/check_selection_settings.py finds every settings block structurally
  and requires each setting the plugin's own code reads. Deriving the
  requirement from the code is what lets these nine plugins be ported one at a
  time without a red build.
- run_plugin_tests names the checks that failed instead of the last line
  logged, which for a script that warns on stderr was the warning, pass or fail.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The football scoreboard now supports shared favorite and non-favorite game selection, quality and division filters, rotating game pools, college rankings, expanded configuration forwarding, validation scripts, regression tests, and version 2.27.0 release documentation.

Changes

Repository selection validation
scripts/check_selection_settings.py, scripts/run_plugin_tests.py, scripts/test_*.py
Validates selection schema contracts, improves failure reasons, and tests schema and odds-fetch checks.
Release metadata and selection documentation
plugins.json, plugins/football-scoreboard/README.md, plugins/football-scoreboard/manifest.json
Documents selection modes, filters, pool rotation, and AP_TOP_n behavior. Updates the plugin version to 2.27.0.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2cf74

The change improves football-game selection, rotation, rankings, and configurable update behavior, but two bounded edge cases can still prevent the mode from rendering when configuration or upstream payload types are unexpected. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on those robustness fixes.

…y not take

Codacy flagged `DynamicTeamResolver(cache_manager=cache)` as an unexpected
keyword, and it is right about the code as written. Five plugins ship a class
of that name and three of them -- basketball, hockey, lacrosse -- take no
cache_manager at all, so `from dynamic_team_resolver import ...` gives an
analyser a call it can prove wrong for whichever class the bare module name
resolved to. The runtime guard made it safe; it did not make it checkable.

The signature is now inspected once and the argument passed as **kwargs, which
also stops the same condition being written twice -- once for the first
resolver and once for the second, where the two spellings could drift apart.

Verified against both shapes: football's own resolver, and hockey's swapped in,
which takes no cache_manager. The second constructs cleanly and then fails the
three behavioural checks, because hockey has not been ported yet and still keys
its cache per pattern rather than per sport -- which is the bug this PR fixes,
and exactly what that test exists to catch.

…t failures

Five of the eight findings held up. The two most serious were mine and recent.

1. The adapter coerced the divisions list before the coercion helper could see
   it: `list(game_limits.get("other_games_divisions", ["fbs"]))`. A hand-edited
   "fbs" became ['f','b','s'] -- already a list, so _normalise_divisions' string
   branch never fired -- and the filter then intersected against three letters
   that name no division and rejected every non-favourite game. A null was
   worse: list(None) raises inside _adapt_config_for_manager, which
   _initialize_managers catches and logs once, leaving all six managers None
   and the plugin enabled but rendering nothing. Passed through raw now.

2. The no-favourites branch had its own selection path -- filter, sort,
   truncate -- and so never built the selection pools. Nothing rotated, nothing
   was ordered by rank. That is the DEFAULT configuration for college football,
   and this PR had just made it the default for five games, so the board most
   in need of the pacing work was the one board not getting it. Both branches
   now call _favorites_first, the no-favourites case with a favourite limit of
   0, which retires _filtered_or_all: one path, one fallback.

3. fetch_standings suppressed every non-HTTP failure. `status not in (404,
   None)` reads None for ConnectionError, Timeout and a body that will not
   parse, so a board that could not reach ESPN said one debug line and ran the
   ranked filter against an empty table. Only 404 is routine now.

4. The division roster asked for datetime.now().year. College football's 2026
   season runs into January 2027, when that returns groups which do not exist,
   the roster comes back empty and division filtering fails open -- through the
   bowls and the playoff. Derived from the season instead.

5. The window advance is a read-modify-write with two writers -- update() and
   the display path -- and neither held a lock at that point. Interleaved, both
   see the interval elapsed and each add a width, skipping a window nobody
   sees. Now under _games_lock, which is an RLock and which the display path
   takes again immediately after.

6. The rotation gated on `others`, but the whole-set fallback slices
   `unfiltered`. In exactly the case that triggers the fallback the pool read
   as empty and the fallback was pinned until the next fetch.

Two findings I did not take:

- Odds are fetched for the selection, so a card rotated in between fetches
  renders without a spread. I widened the fetch to cover the rotation pool and
  scripts/test_odds_fetch_scope.py failed -- correctly. That guard exists
  because a rig once made 946 odds requests to put one game on the panel, and
  widening the scope inside update() is exactly what it forbids. Reverted; the
  gap is real but belongs in a change that revisits that decision deliberately,
  not in this one.
- The README's default for upcoming_games_to_show was stale against the new
  ncaa_fb schema default. Corrected -- that one I did take.

The odds guard needed a change of its own: it located the trim by searching for
the literal slice, which merging the two selection branches moved inside the
helper. It now accepts either shape, and still fails when the fetch is pointed
back at the collected list, which is the bug it was written for.

Two probes built with __new__ needed the lock supplied, which is the failure
mode their own comments warn about: a missing attribute raises inside update()'s
try/except, and the test reads as a wording change rather than an incomplete
object.

#334 landed while this was open. Two conflicts, both bookkeeping:

- manifest.json: both version entries kept, 2.27.0 above 2.26.1, so the logo
  fix's changelog is not lost behind this one. Descending order, as the file
  already is.
- plugins.json: regenerated rather than merged, which is the only correct
  resolution for a generated file.

sports.py merged cleanly and both sides are intact: _ensure_team_logos is still
called from _extract_game_details_common where #334 put it, and the selection
work is untouched. Verified rather than assumed -- test_missing_team_logos.py
passes against the merged file, and so does the rest of the suite.

…he truth about game counts

The rotation due-check guessed which pool _compose_selection would slice
as `others or unfiltered`, but the composer only falls back to the
unfiltered list when favourites contribute nothing. With a favourite
playing and the filters rejecting every other game, the guess said
'rotate', the recompose produced an identical favourites-only list, the
rotation clock never advanced, and selection re-ran on every display()
call forever. The check now mirrors the composer's rule; the new test
fails on the old expression and no other check.

The games_to_show schema descriptions still said 'N games per favorite
team', which is only true with show_favorite_teams_only on -- in the
default favourites-first mode they are totals. Reworded, and the
'additive, never a removal' comment scoped to the counts it is true of.

Port the college rankings selection to the baseball data source.

If /standings returns 200 without poll data, the method returns before requesting /rankings. Apply the college endpoint selection used by the football copy.

All six findings verified against the branch before fixing:

- broadcast is coerced to a string at extraction; ESPN's undocumented
  payloads have served it as an object, and a non-string reached
  _note_broadcast_coverage's .strip() inside update()'s try/except.
- _setting_int also catches OverflowError: json parses a bare Infinity
  and int(inf) raises from __init__, outside any fallback.
- check_selection_settings rejects unknown plugin ids up front instead
  of printing OK and then crashing on the block count.
- run_plugin_tests keeps a labelled tail from each output stream;
  concatenating them reported only stderr when both had evidence.
- README: the AP_TOP_10 example now says 'up to 12 favorites' with the
  overlap caveat, and the rotation example fence names a language.

  0855372 fix(scoreboards): import datetime, timezone and ZoneInfo in game_renderer (#339)
  6e8b863 fix(football-scoreboard): give the possession ball room (#337)
  85a5555 feat(football): favourites first, ranked others, and a rotation (#335)
  93bd554 feat(sports): apply the matchup separator settings to every mode (#336)

17 conflicts: eight sports.py, eight manifest.json, and the generated plugins.json.

sports.py -- every conflict was the same shape. #336 moved the upcoming card's
centre (matchup separator, or the date and time stacked, or nothing) out of the
inline scorebug code and into _draw_upcoming_center_switch, which is exactly
where this branch had scaled the stacked date/time offsets. Those edits are dead
weight now: SportsUpcoming sets _DRAWS_SCORE = False, so _time_font_size()
returns the un-grown 8 and max(7, 8-1) / max(9, 8+1) are the original 7 and 9.
Resolved to main's side throughout, then re-asserted _DRAWS_SCORE on the
SportsUpcoming that main's restructure left behind (football's #335 moved that
class's body, so the flag came away with the hunk).

Audited rather than assumed: diffing each resolved file against origin/main
leaves 200-300 added lines -- the helper block and its comments -- and 3 to 6
removed, each one a line this branch deliberately replaced (return fonts, the
1.5x max_width, score_y's -14 and -3, date_y's -7, football's two "00-00"
probes and its centre-gap return). No upcoming-card line is removed, so #336's
relocation is intact.

manifest.json -- main released the very version numbers this branch had claimed
and then some, so the branch entries could not be kept. Took main's manifest
whole, including its full versions[] history, and re-stacked this branch's entry
on top a minor above where main now sits: afl 1.16.0, baseball 1.34.0,
basketball 1.23.0, football 2.28.0, hockey 1.19.0, lacrosse 1.18.0, nrl 1.15.0,
soccer 2.18.0. CHANGELOG headings follow. plugins.json regenerated.

Verified against the merged origin/main across ten sizes (64x32, 128x32, 256x32,
64x64, 96x48, 192x48, 128x64, 256x64, 256x128, 384x96):

  * 240 harness renders, all PASS, no overflow or fill warnings.
  * All 80 upcoming renders byte-identical to main -- the screen draws no score
    and this branch leaves it alone.
  * Live and recent byte-identical at 64x32, 128x32 and 256x32 for every plugin,
    and football also at 64x64. Taller panels take the larger score.
  * Adaptive layout: only 192x48 live and recent move; the "VS" separator and
    every other size are byte-identical.
  * Plugin self-test failures identical to origin/main (11 pre-existing on this
    machine), including main's new test_switch_upcoming_center, which covers the
    region resolved to its side.
  * check_module_collisions clean across 43 plugins.

… this

Main moved a long way under this branch. Resolving hunk by hunk showed the
work splits cleanly in two, and the halves want opposite resolutions.

**football-scoreboard is fully superseded.** What this branch does for football
shipped as #335 and was then improved by #341, #343 and #344. Main is strictly
ahead everywhere they overlap: it season-corrects the division roster lookup,
str()-guards ESPN's broadcast field, catches OverflowError on a bare Infinity,
routes the no-favourites branch through _favorites_first so it builds selection
pools, and adds _attach_odds_to_rotated_games, which this branch does not have
at all. Several of main's comments describe this branch's own approach as the
old way. Every football hunk therefore takes main, and football's sports.py,
manager.py, data_sources.py, tests and README now match origin/main byte for
byte -- this branch no longer changes football in any way.

**The other eight lineages still need all of it.** They have _favorites_first
and nothing else: no _compose_selection, no rotation, no _passes_other_filters.
Their settings were in the schema with nothing reading them. Those hunks take
this branch.

Three resolutions worth naming:

- baseball, basketball, hockey and lacrosse: main re-adds _is_favorite_game
  beside the rotation methods this branch adds. Taking both would have defined
  it twice in one class, and Python takes the last -- main's copy would have
  silently shadowed this branch's. Kept one, plus main's _DRAWS_SCORE ClassVar.
- nrl: main defines _is_favorite_game TWICE in SportsCore, at 320 and 2177, and
  they do not agree -- the first matches on ESPN team id, the second on
  abbreviation. #189 moved nrl to ids deliberately; #332 added the abbr copy,
  which shadowed and silently reverted that fix. This branch removes the
  duplicate, so the fix is restored. That is a live bug on main today.
- Manifests and plugins.json take main, then the eight changed plugins are
  re-bumped on top of the versions main has since published. Football is not
  bumped, because nothing about it changed.

READMEs: football takes main; afl, baseball and basketball keep both sections,
since this branch documents selection and main documents the matchup separator.

Verified: run_plugin_tests.py --all gives 222 passed, 2 skipped, 1 failed, and
that one failure -- football's test_favorite_live_boost.py, "excluded team
hidden from recent/final scores in default (no-favorites) path" -- reproduces
identically on a clean origin/main worktree. It is main's, not this merge's:
_favorites_first(games, 0, N) does not apply the exclude filter the old
filter/sort/truncate path did. The eight apply excludes elsewhere and pass.
check_selection_settings, check_manifest_version_fields, check_scroll_adoption
and check_module_collisions all pass.
