Yesterday I was coding up a weighted version of Hockey and ended up “improving” some code that effects the 50/50 version too. I tested it by rerunning yesterdays NHL odds (without pushing the results to the live site) and, lo and behold, the numbers where wrong. The program that automatically runs each night still uses the unbroken older code, but the xml data file that stores all the season’s numbers still has the bad results from my testing. I made a copy before my testing but forgot to revert back to it. I blame it on the World Series. :)
 
So, for today only, the NHL yesterday’s change and big games numbers are off. The current odds in, today’s big games, and what if numbers are correct.
 
If all goes well I’ll have the weighted version complete for tomorrow, although we still need a few more weeks under our belt for it to be more accurate than the 50/50 version.
