Status of UPCL

Recently, my laptop suffered a hard drive failure. Included in the lost data were all the UPCL historical records for cricket and pool. The pool data can be recovered from paper files, but the playoff data is lost forever. This means the league's history page is essentially all that is known until I can reconstruct as much as possible. This also presents me a chance to reconstruct these things in a more streamlined manner. However, this process promises to take a lot of time. As such, and with the loss of all the current data, I will be restarting the 2017 Tournament from scratch. All team data, such as rosters, will remain the same as I can remember all of them, and have the means to reconstruct that, but the cue allocations will be different. I will attempt to reconstruct the different documents from the last three years to the best of my abilities. I will also try to repair tangential pool documents, but the cricket data from the first two years is totally lost, and partially lost for the third year. The cricket schedule will be used to rebuild the cricket document for this year. I do not anticipate any issues with starting the cricket season on schedule. I will scrap all data based on the qualifiers already completed this year, and start anew when I get the chance. This tournament may run fully in 2017. I ask for your patience as I deal with this particularly difficult and disruptive technical malfunction.
