Just watched Smitty's playtest stream, I think the last game Smitty vs FiveAces should definitely be casted :)

To double of what I said in discord - @WhoCares gives a good solution in that we both retain the same mechanics as before (if Defence stance and Ignore Buildings OFF is default), but have options for a greater control over army movement. PS Action bar is nice btw in that it says a lot of useful non-...

Re-built the app from source and hacked an export button into it.
Executable here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/k8cq6f2d9xhog ... A.zip?dl=0
Sources here: https://github.com/netnazgul/elorater_ora

Rather crude, but is probably easier to use than external tool.

@nmm I've written a simple ".elo" file parser to convert its insides into a CSV file. updated (fixed the issue with spaces): https://www.dropbox.com/s/x0um63m1xx9t624/ELORaterPP_v101.zip?dl=0 Either run it as-is and provide names for input and output files (should be in the same dir or relative path...

Would be glad to see this as an ingame feature. About abuses: as it is open like nnm said, community can ban certain games I suppose. Or boo certain players and request their rating reset. [lots of text deleted about wishes on implementing ranked games into engine which is obviosly lots of time inve...

I definitely would love some more automation, there's been talks about having the league (fixtures, tables) exported to a page where numbers can be plotted and manipulated easily while at the same time keep the fancy pants graphics to make it all look pretty. I wanted to try to duplicate the tables...

Positions 10-12 were filled with forfeited players leaving only one spot (Position 9) having to play a qualifier. Instead, you could have Positions 8 and 9 automatically relegated and positions 6-7 playing qualifiers. While this is bit unforgiving, it would increase turnover in the divisions and al...

Seeing as it is, Top tiers are rather volatile anyway because of forfeits, so it's not that hard to go all the way in two seasons if one is proficient enough. Now it looks like almost a third of Masters will be renewed (although I now see this was intended from the beginning), and a half of Minions ...

There is swiss, but only for 1-stage tournament. For 2-stage they took it off for some reason, but semifinals after swiss can be easily done manually or in a separate tournament page anyway. Maybe that's because swiss system is quite efficient at deciding winners, it's just bad for middle-table plac...

So much for the first post I guess, but nevertheless. I've skimmed through the forums and more and more I wonder why is noone uses http://challonge.com/ (or several other freeware web tools that are there; or GoogleDocs at least) for bracketing? Hector actually used it for his 1v1 tournament recenty...
