Postponed games

Some rounds can be divided due to postponed games or changes in the Calendar. As a result of these issues, each league Biwenger can choose how to manage those days between the different available modalities:

This option makes all games to be treated as a single round with a single lineup per user. When the original round is disputed, this is calculated and the corresponding points and bonuses are given (except for position-based bonuses, ideal and profitable lineups, MVP and challenges).

Once the postponed games are played, weeks or months later, the round is recalculated, but this time taking into account all the games and adjusting the bonuses and points that were still left to add or subtract.

In this modality, bonuses for ideal and profitable lineups are credited in the last recalculation, when all games have been played.
