Very Early Season 8 Thread

Aren't they in different time zones?

[Gandalf]

Ah! Good point! Most of what I said is still true though :p

[Raveen]

Presumably somewhere down the line there'll be the possibility to add a Commissioners admin page in to deal with this and other user issues?

[Gandalf]

Yes. The barrier for users to mess things up is fairly high at the moment but it can definitely be moved up some more. But as you say that will require a login system, that will let you do some of the things I currently do behind the scenes. Not a priority at the moment, as the barrier is high enough for the tool to be usable by us & because there are more important/fun things to do.

Turns out fixing the issue wasn't quite as bad as it seemed as many of the stat updates didn't fire when the second upload was done as the code realised that things didn't add up. Yay for good coding.

[id3nt1ty]

Nice work.

I have an almost working login system for my site, hoping to get it finished off this weekend. They are not actually that hard.

Are you doing the admin stuff behind the scenes in Sql or do you have some UI for it?

[Gandalf]

I use PHPmyadmin... so a bit of both. I have 8+ years of SQL experience so I'm quite happy mucking around in the data.

I know how to do a login system (see my sports predictions websites), it's still extra work though, especially to incorporate all the different sorts of admin tasks.

Code, YAWN, lack of sense of humour, YAWN.

START A PROPER SEASON 8 THREAD ALREADY BOSS.

I'm having too much fun writing code to schedule the league whilst taking into account your own indecision about which team you want to play. So you'll just have to wait.

[lawastooshort]

You tell him.

[id3nt1ty]

For proof, you can follow the code progress here.

[DaigaroOgami]

I would possibly put taking a cheese grater to my danglie's ahead of reading that code on my 'Things I could do with my time' list.

Put the Ducklingz down on your list Boy; PirlOrc just put retirement on hold for a season.

[lawastooshort]

Also is anyone on this evening?

[DaigaroOgami]

Maybe; although the wife might want my company.

[Gandalf]

Ditto

[Abomination]

I might be available for a game. These gobbos could really use 1 more friendly before the season starts.

I'll know for sure in a bit. Will be muted and deafened on Mumble meanwhile.
