Where Chadwick's Revenge is intentionally different
The scorecard is the interface
Runner paths and plays such as K, F8, and 6-3 remain visible in the inning grid instead of disappearing into an event list.
No team account to maintain
Open the browser, enter the lineups, and score. Games stay on your device unless you choose to share one live.
Share the scorecard, not a paywall
Send a live read-only link to family and friends. They can follow the scorecard, stats, box score, and play log without signing in.
Paper remains a first-class output
Print a completed traditional scorecard, export it to PDF, or download a blank two-team scorecard before the game.
