Ladder Site Online...

[Sharur]

Well, luckily I should have more than 2-3 days to work on it. I'll take a look at it later tonight and see if I can wrap my head around it

EDIT: It occurs to me I don't know where on the SVN the ladder project is. It doesn't seem to be part of the Wesnoth project, and I don't see it mentioned anywhere in the ladder FAQ.

EDIT 2: I'm in idiot, look in the thread of course Found it!

[Sharur]

Next question: is this thread the appropriate place to discuss the design? I'd like to figure out what I'd be getting into before I commit to anything, but I'm not sure if this is the right place to do that.

To give an example of what I mean, one of the biggest design decisions I can think of is whether to have teams tied to multiple single-player accounts, or just have one team account, and let the team list its members on its profile page.

Of course if someone's already made these kinds of decisions and just wants to hand it off to someone to code, that works for me.

[eyerouge]

Some decisions have been made, yes. The "thread" would be my email and/or chat:

mail & jabber: eyerouge at gmail dot com
msn: subcodes at hotmail dot com

Plese send me a list of all questions and thoughts or contact me when I seem to be alive. I usually work a lot tuesdays to thursdays so don't be alarmed if I fail to respond at once

I'm happy to see that the ladder is going strong and that things seem to work. I'd also like to share that the crew behind a well known engine (VASSAL) has contacted us about the ladder in their quest for a new ladder system. Although we haven't decided anything yet I'm sure that the ladder project (tribal bliss at sourceforge) will prevail as it has some nice code and is customizable, mostly thanks to chains & mr russ efforts.

With that said, I'm also officially resigning from the overtimed post as webadmin for the Wesnoth ladder site. It has been nice serving you guys and I still like both Wesnoth and the Ladder just like always, but real life has it's toll and I'd like to spend time on the development of my free & pro CCG instead.

As soon as you get a new webmaster, preferably a person that can handle ftp/(linux shell)/php/mysql, you should contact chains and he'll probably set up his access. If you want future updates of the ladder software itself it would perhaps also be wise to let me keep the access I currently have, else I wouldn't be able to support the webmaster if needed and if I had the opportunity to do so.

All php coders that want to help out adding new stuff to the ladder are, as always, also welcome to contact me - I'd help you get started and we'd support you in your work.

With best wishes

Indeed, thanks eyerouge. I hope the CCG works out as I would like to play it when it is finished.

[ElvenKing]

Yes, thank you eyerouge. The ladder is truly fantastic.

Hi,

Its been awhile.
I decided to log into the ladder site and iI noticed a couple new losses.

It seems someone has started to use my log-in name.
Any suggestions?
I dont plan to be very active for a couple more months but I really dont want to cross with another player and or be used.
I hope it is an innocent mistake, all i can do is guarantee 100 percent i did not play those games.
I have not played any competative games since the TOC4 2nd roud loss =-}

Ladder is good if you just want to play 1 vs 1 and you hate quitters. You don't even have to care your rank (but if you win you must report this).

[KnightKunibert]

Hello Eye,

Thanks for the ladder and your work. It would be nice to meet you on the wesnoth server and
have a match

Best Regards,

KK

Try that.

Replays of all observable games get now saved by the multiplayer server and are available here: http://wesnoth.org/replays/1.6

This might be especially interesting for the ladder (administrators) to be able to verify played games when there are disputes.

PS: I've noticed so far that for example a replay of Orocia was corrupt but otherwise they seem to work fine so I guess for standard games (like those played on the ladder) it'll work well.
