Stupid, Stupid, Stupid Software

I use TCOYF charting software instead of FF, and I am so mad at it right now!
I o'd earlier than usual this cycle, though still within the range of normal. I'm POSITIVE that I ovulated. Five days of EWCM, crazy ovulatory pain, and then a temp shift from 97.3-97.7 to 98.2-98.5. That seems pretty self evident, right?
I guess because I never ovulated earlier than day 22 in the last four cycles I charted (and went until day 30 last month) the software won't accept that I could have ovulated on day 19 or 20. Left to its own devices, it insists that I haven't ovulated yet. I had to override all its calculations and it still put my coverline at 98.2, which makes zero sense. Ugh!
My chart is here if anyone wants to take a look: https://forums.ovusoft.com/chart.asp?id=triple_sevens
I know people generally frown on overriding, but it seemed just too obvious not to. Has anyone else with slightly irregular cycles found that the software doesn't know what to do with them?
I've been away from the boards for the last few weeks trying to clear my head--belated congratulations to Transatlantic Blonde on her BFP.

Re: Stupid, Stupid, Stupid Software
I was thinking she should try the same thing.

You know what? I'm using TCOYF and FF to chart. I had started with only TCOYF, but decided since most everyone on here uses FF, I would get more help with that one. TCOYF says I ovulated already, and FF doesn't.
