SO, lots of little things fixed since the weekend:
Chime works on both sites (it’s an option via “settings” you can enable — just leave your browser on your play panel and after a minute or two, if somebody has played and it’s your turn in one of your games, your chosen chime will alert you! This can be in place of e-mail if you can do that).
Game Notes is back on Gladiators (another option — you can leave notes for yourself, which can be handy near the end of a game especially).
Round Robin Score tables fixed for some RR on Gladiators. Elves might need to fix a game or two, but it might have fixed itself as your game continued — just two plays needed to self-repair the score table.
SOWPODS upgraded to CSW24 on both sites. An alert member noticed a couple words missing, and I realized that I’d updated the old Chez and Glad, but being in the middle of creating the new Shufflerack, forgot to update what I already had HERE.
A few people Passed or Exchanged in some manner that I don’t think worked. Nobody reported this, but I saw some game files getting put in the wrong place on the server. Sorry, whatever it was! But it’s fixed now.
Yet to do:
1) Review the OSPD and OWL end-of-game scoring for 3- and 4- player games. I’ll probably change this to what it was before, but I want to work through the numbers to be sure. If I change this, just accept that the current tourney did some funny stuff. We aren’t going to go back and try to change those (on Gladiators).
But for two-player games, the scoring will remain different than before, but equivalent. Here’s an example where one player went out and the other player had the “M” letter. Before, the out player got a bonus of +3 and the other player stuck with the M had a penalty of -3.
Now the out player gets double the remaining tiles of the other player. So out player gets +6, and no penalty for the other player. This is how tournament and club play is scored in the United States and Canada (i.e. OSPD and OWL).
[Wed Mar 19 00:31] stuckPlayer — mite [18] = 18 (total = 318)
[Wed Mar 19 00:55] outPlayer— tabs [6] + ti [2] + floes [8] = 16 (total = 309)
[Wed Mar 19 00:55] outPlayer— END [6] = 6 (total = 315)
That’s the 6 points for the letter M (the only remaining tile in ‘stuckPlayer’ rack, times two!
Scoring is unchanged for SOWPODS, French, and Target tourney of any time.
and another thing to fix:
2) a glitch in the requested tourney panel that the tournament elves see.
Turns out I only tried to implement the North American end of game scoring for Chez. Just fixed that for 3- and 4-player games. On Glad, the tourney has to be known, so it doesn’t get applied to Targets tourneys. Will just leave the scoring alone on Glad for now.
Hi Ben. We really appreciate all your hard work. Not sure if this will fix itself, but in T10883 OWL Pairs Quick KO , the scoring bracket has a double entry for my team. Just thought you should know.
Will check into that this weekend, thanks!
