Scoreganizer updates
This is a thread for scoreganizer updates. I'll post here every time I make a (noticeable) change.

Re: Scoreganizer updates
I just updated scoreganizer to version 0.14.3 .
Creating tournaments is now way easier than before. I turned the "mode" and "modeparams" fields into a wizard (a series of dialogs). So, you don't have to know that you need to write "sum" in the first field and "B+I+E" in the second field anymore. Check it out at https://scoreganizer.bountin.net/tournaments/init/!
This also makes it easy to add new tournament systems in a way that is usable for people sometime (hopefully, before the wch! I have side-events planned ).

But there's a problem of scoreganizer site. If people of saolei.wang join the online competition, they will take a risk of breaking record because saolei.wang doesn't accept .rmv
So the most players of saolei.wang have less and less interest to use your site. Once Wen-Kai Xu got 11.06(3bv=34) int nf at Saolei.wang Weekly on scoreganizer, it's his nf time record but he can't join saolei.wang ranking because it's a .rmv file.
Same problem happens in WCH2015 Online, when you break your record, if you are only the member of msinfo you can upload your score to msinfo since .rmv is legal, but if you are the member of saolei.wang you cannot upload your score to saolei.wang since saolei.wang only accept .avf. It's not fair.
One of the possible solutions is to support .avf at scoreganizer, or each member of saolei.wang must make a choice: Sacrifice the right of saolei.wang ranking to join WCH2015 Online or Lost the chance of competing with world class players. afaik most will take the 2nd.
2015.9.27 is the Mid-Autumn Festival of China, in this festival people should come back home and eat mooncake with family. LOL it's the same day with WCH2015.

I'd love to support Arbiter with scoreganizer, however, I'm so busy organizing now that I won't manage to do that in time for the WCH.
There's another way to resolve this, though: If saolei.wang were to support .rmv. It's a pretty simple format, and I have attached the python library that is used by scoreganizer to extract all the video data from rmv files. It's very simple code, feel free to use it/translate it into another programming language to use it.
Alternatively, if there was a python library that could read AVF, supporting arbiter would be relatively easy and probably take me a day or two. I can't promise anything, but that is something I might be able to get done before the championship.
That's a real shame :/ Next time, something like that would be great to know during the planning phase - if I'd known that this date might keep many chinese players from participating, I'd most likely have chosen a different one.pauv wrote: 2015.9.27 is the Mid-Autumn Festival of China, in this festival people should come back home and eat mooncake with family.

I already announced it for that date now :/ I'll see if I can find an alternative, though.EWQMinesweeper wrote:tK: Simply postpone the competition for the online championship.

Re: Scoreganizer updates
Small update: No new version, but the mailserver should now no longer be derping, ie, registration shouldn't be a problem anymore.

Re: Scoreganizer updates
hi tommy,
just for the record, it would be nice if you could disable the personal record prompt for tournaments.
when creating a new tournament on scoreganizer, do people regularly check for upcoming tournaments? besides irc, is there a certain group on facebook or a periodic newsletter?
i must admit that i have never been that active as regards the forum, that's probably why last weekend was my first time to join a tournament on scoreganizer. however, i suppose there are many amateurs like me who don't know about scoreganizer at all :S

Re: Scoreganizer updates
Hi!
Yeah, I guess if I ever get around to working on vsweep and mbh again, I'll do that.
re scoreganizer being active, at the moment, it's mostly being used for the big tournaments :/ Although it would be absolutely possible (and intended) for people to create tournaments of their own all the time if they want to.
I guess I never really advertised that, though (and also, creating tournaments was very user-unfriendly once - it still isn't as good as it could be).
Also, importantly, right now the client isn't very easy to use.
So, my plan is to make a GUI interface for the client, make creating tournaments more intuitive, and then maybe advertising it more.
