Check your date
Team home regions are inferred from team names and where they cook, and a team is “still active” if it has appeared on any results board in the last eighteen months. Everything here comes from the public listings and results at kcbs.us; contests that never published results are invisible to it, so read low numbers as “not on file” before reading them as “did not happen”.
