Forfeits, Game info bug, and website enhancement

Post by dtkreutz » Mon Jul 30, 2012 11:31 am

Three things came up today from one issue...

Opposing team forfeited due to lack of players. Would love to be able to end game and declare winner without having to make dummy player and score home run just to put a W in the win column. Not only for team website, but just to have on the iPad as well.

When I went to enter notes on the Game info page for the game I just "Dummy Runned", when I scrolled past stats and dates and such, brought up keyboard to enter notes, upon exiting notes, I'm no longer able to scroll back to top of game info page. I must back out then re-enter to see stats. New iPad, Latest iScore, repeatable.

and finally, an issue that has bugged me about the forums section... when you do a search, the results show the search term highlighted in bright yellow. White type in bright yellow is basically unreadable, and when you have a couple of search terms, it's pretty hard to read the post and know which term it is referring to.

Just some thoughts.
I'm having a great season (#3) with iScore, and appreciate all the great work!

With forfeits, the only way we have to handle this for now is creating a dummy player as you noted. Part of the problem here is that every league has their own local rules about how a forfeit should be scored (some give the winning team 1 run, some 5 runs, etc...) and we can not possibly capture all the variations. We do have the idea of "forfeit" on our enhancement list, but the "scoring" part of a forfeit will likely still have to be done through "dummy players".

We think we have addressed the scrolling issue with our next release, but we will check again.

For the forum, we are using standard "skins" for the PHP BB board. You can change to a different color set by selecting User Control Panel in the upper right corner, and selecting from the different color schemes available.

Change your board style under forum preference to fix the search problem. Avalon green works well as an alternative.

Until ftm fixes, A trick on the scrolling issue is to be sure and hit "return key" mot close keyboard.

In high school here forfeit is 7 runs..
