Follow My Tourney Using Status Updates Feature
« on: September 03, 2012, 12:20:57 PM »
Hi All,

I will be hosting my monthly tourney tomorrow night, Tuesday September 4 at 6:30pm ET. I will be using the Status Update feature in TD. You can follow the status of the tourney via my website. I made some changes to the default page Corey created to work better with my tourney. I also removed the option to let users change how often the page upates, I set it to 30 seconds. Take a look and follow along, let me know how it goes and if you like it. Right now we are limited on what items are updateable.

www.seitz333.com

Click on the 'Live Tourney Updates' at the top of the page.

Thanks,

Chuck

Hey seitz, Wanted to let you know that I finally got to the point of being able to view the live stats - thanks to a ******* idiot driver on the road. (Yes, I self-censored that... trying to watch my language :P )

I see you have 27 entries, of which seven rebought. I'm showing that there are no players left (did the tournament finish already?), and that the clock is paused at 3:36 in round 16, with over $3k in the prize pool.

If you do another one, hopefully I will be able to view it live next time.

Hope it went smoothly!

Yes the tourney ended around 12:15am. Those stats are correct. Everything worked great. I know we are limited on what gets reported at the moment, but I think the following items are what people viewing the live updates would most want to see.

In no particular order:

1. Who has busted out
2. Who is still in
3. Who did a rebuy/addon
4. Prize/bounty winnings
5. points earned (not sure if this one is possible)
6. Time of bustout
7. Hitman
8. Tourney title/name

I'm sure there are more but that is all I can think of at the moment.

I know ghats the main thing from the tournaments that my group wanted. Only addition would be the total for the season, but I know that would have to be post tournament to generate.... or the would wait as I do it on excel for them... how I love dual screens... lil

Darn, meant to check it out but got tied up.  Glad to hear it all worked well.

It's coming, I swear!  :)

For the record, I'm currently working on another Screen type for layouts that will allow you to use your own HTML for a screen.  No columns, rows, or cells.  Just point to an HTML file and use that for the layout.  Should allow a lot more flexibility.
