Own 25 clarification

On the gameplanning section it has the zones goal-own 25; own 25-50 and so on

After some kickoffs etc, I think play starts at own 25 right? So which settings does it use for my first downs? The first quarter or second quarter?

Cheers and sorry if this is obvious!

Ive made 60 1st down plays from own 25-50 compared to 37 goal-own25 so maybe I've answered my question!??

IDK, but still worth asking:

At your opponent's 25 yd line, which quartile is utilized? 50-25? 25-0?

At the 50 yd line, which quartile is utilized? 25-50? 50-25?

At your own 25 yd line, which quartile is used? 0-25? 25-50?

The 25 yard line is the start of the second quadrant, not the end of the first.

So it reality it should read: 0 - 24.9999999999999999? :) 25 - 49.999999999999?

I think you need to add an infinite number of 9s.
