Go Discussions Com / Ladder Feature Requests

Sub-page of GoDiscussionsCom

This page lists feature requests and bugs for the GoDiscussions Ladder tool that can be found here: [ext] http://gdladder.topazg.com/index.asp. If you would like to see a new feature, add it here. If you would like to show support for a listed feature, add a '+' in the "vote" line.

Feature Requests

  • Authenticated login

A username/password system to allow users to change their details would be useful. The current system allows anyone to log in as any user just by typing their username.

Votes: + +

  • Ranking Log

To inhibit misuse, I would like to suggest a ranking log. It shows the position in the ladder, the date and the reason for change, which would be one of these for: a) win against player xyz, b) loss against player xyz, c) inactivity, d) inactivity of player(s) xyz.

Votes: +

Bugs

None known.

Rejected Requests

Requests that have been rejected should be placed here, along with reasoning.

Changes - 14th November 2009

  • Challenges can now be canceled by the challenger instead of requiring playing.
  • Timezones are now visible and settable.
  • If a challenge hasn't had a result submitted within 7 days, the win on timeout can be played by the challenger.
  • If a timeout claim hasn't been claimed within a further 3 days (a total of 10 days from the initial challenge), the win is automatically claimed.
  • If a user's activity flag does not get reset for 14 days, and they are not in the top three positions in the ladder, they automatically demote one position. * If they are in the danger zone [bottom X players, where X = ({total+players}\5)-2] they are excluded from the ladder.
  • A player can now retire from the ladder.
  • If a user who has been excluded from the ladder or retired from the ladder logs back in, they get entered back at the bottom of the ladder.

sh: I think someone should be able to delete users that are not on GD or that have retired, when the admin is busy with other things (which he seems to be at the moment). I would volunteer for that. I have maintained the GD user ID of new users and moved them above the inactive users anyway.

sh: Would it be a useful feature to automatically retrieve the KGS rank? The point is that once it is written down, people do not update it any more.

topazg: Retired users now dealt with, see recent changes. Automatically retrieving KGS rank I wouldn't know where to start with. If people click on the "graph" link it should be readily available though.
