So why not track both? Since it is his thread, the "official" record will be D2D's plays that he gets in before start time (including half-time, live, etc) and create a separate "pre-game" record for plays that occurred X time (eg, 30 min) before the start. It seems like this could easily be solved by additional column in Excel.

This would give D2D more info as to how his pre-game and in-game plays are affecting his bottom line. Seems like a win-win to me.
