Returning To Project Brings Confusion

I've been away from my hobby project for a little while and have found that a break of more than a few weeks brings about an awful lot of head-scratching as I try to recall what I had in mind "way back then."

Even though I've tried very hard to document my code and data model, there's a few thoughts-in-progress I must have been having that have long since faded. Sure sign of bad planning or execution or design.

I had hoped to quickly dive back in and start building on some new ideas I've since had, but it looks like I might have a seen-far-too-often period of rediscovery to relearn my original project.

Was this the fantasy baseball project, or something else?

Yes, it was.

I’m trying to come up with an elegant way to associate the unknown but potentially (hopefully?) large number of fantasy rosters/scorecards with the real-world batting events. The code doesn’t quite match the diagram I have, so I’m scratching my head wondering whether the code is more accurate than the diagram as I can’t actually recall whether I was adding to the model (so the diagram is correct) or removing (so the code is correct)…and I can’t decide now which was better, or why I’d have it either way…

In the meantime, though, I took a step back and attacked my CI problem (other post). Fixed that. Now my confidence is boosted, and I should be able to wrangle the solution to this one out of my ailing memory.
