Ohoho! My python script to pull the info off the DTL conference recruit pages works like a champ.

Posted by Cowboy BeBaron (aka BaronWasteland) Dec 4 '21, 08:15

I can get all the stats and recruit preferences this way. I can't get the scouting report without going to the individual pages (all 768 of them) and scraping that information. It doesn't feed into my algorithm and I don't want to piss off the site admin so I think I'll not go that far.

But this is nice. It saves me the trouble of copying/pasting 32 times into a spreadsheet. That's all I really wanted.

I've also updated the rankings in my shared sheet with the new stats. Davies is still #1. -- nm - Cowboy BeBaron Dec 4, 09:59
You know just paying the $3/season would give you all of that :) -- nm - spamlet Dec 4, 08:19 7
- Is there an option (for Medium league) to download stats data? - ReluctantCynic Dec 4, 08:25 5
  - No you have to be large but I can send you one if you want to see the data. - spamlet Dec 4, 08:26 4
    - That would be cool. I'm also trying to figure out a way to download my team's historical stats (if that is possible). -- nm - ReluctantCynic Dec 4, 09:04 3
      - They are historical records for each season but not sure how detailed you want. -- nm - spamlet Dec 4, 10:27
      - Here’s a bunch I gave to Baron for analysis. - spamlet Dec 4, 09:37
      - Ha, I am doing the same. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 4, 09:28
- I am aware, but this was a fun project. Both R and Python have been on my To Learn list for some time. -- nm - Cowboy BeBaron Dec 4, 08:22
