Scheduled is not live.
An event does not become “LIVE” merely because its planned start time passed. A published state must say so.
Trust without homework
Fast is useful.
Trusted is better.
The graph does the heavy lifting under the surface. Fans get clear states, honest unknowns, and a visible path when something changes.
Approved is not published.
Internal review can approve a claim without making it consumer truth. The public experience only uses the published projection.
Unknown stays unknown.
Missing times, broadcasts, venues, and classifications remain visibly pending. We do not fill gaps with plausible guesses.
Corrections leave a trail.
When published information changes, the correction path preserves what changed, when it changed, and why.
The language on screen
States mean something.
- Live
- A published source currently marks the event in progress.
- Scheduled
- A planned event and time; not proof that competition started.
- Provisional
- A visible result or decision that has not reached final status.
- Verified
- A published consumer claim with its source path intact.
- Corrected
- A previously published item changed through the correction path.
