How to turn off game clock

Post by warrendistler » Thu Dec 29, 2011 7:11 am

I am part of a broadcast team and we air high school basketball games on our television station. I am using iScore and like it, but we set the game to send out Twitter messages at the end of each quarter, half and game to update our fans. My problem is that I have the clock turned off, but it is still running in the background. We have a real problem with the clock running out without our being aware of this fact and it sends out Twitter and Facebook messages with the scores from that point in time. The game could still have a minute or so to go, but it is telling everyone the game is over and that one team won, when they may not have won. Took several calls from irrate fans. Is there a way to keep this from happening? :cry:

For now, you can turn off the automatic tweets from the Twittercast setup screen and just send them out manually by tapping the tweet button at the times you want them to be sent. We will look to make it so in "hidden clock" mode, the tweets are actually sent when you press the Next Period button (which means they will actually be sent at the start of the following period instead of the end of the current period).
