It's gonna be;

- AP ( Because of free accounts, when we do player tally, if it is found there aren't any free accounts, we gonna do BP )
- Drafting on the fly, as in teams are chosen by the 2 highest MMR players currently online
- In House Rating to determine wins
- Tiered brackets ( I'm not explaining this again )

OP won't be anything fancy, my photoshop skills suck.

BP sux

? Which mode would you rather do?

BD or BP are the fairest, AP is for new people, and AR is terrible. SD doesn't really let you strategies against the enemy team.

No he wasn't. He was regular. I remember checking his status right before he posted to see if he was junior or not to tell him he's going to get banned or not.

EDIT: If we do AP, we should at least use alternate drafting option.

You're pretty serious about that aren't you? Maybe I'll remake my character then, I'd like some people to play with every now and then.

So, gold prices are 67% off right now.

FUCK. I'm 3 gold away from being able to buy a gold avatar.

I'd gift you 3 gold if I could, but alas.

Gotta say they baited me HARD on this one. Thought it was a System Error so I went on a shopping frenzy before it got taken down, but no, it's an official Ultra Merrick Sale.

I was had, cyacya.

(Also reading on forum a dude suggested this meant the BreakyCPK pack release on friday! That'd be grand wishful thinking but how awesome would it be....more awesome than Jon St. Jon I hope...)

Don't get me wrong, I love Jon St. Jon. But not his voicepack. They should have went full Duke Nukem impersonation with it, tone and intonation and all, but in the voicepack he's just not that.

Anyone up for some more Calc-GAF tonight? Sorry for bugging you all about that, and thanks to Alumnus and Binlong for the help.

Anyone here good with css and javascript/jquery? I was trying to add some features to the hongaf app but I think most of the things I was trying to do would be suited more for client-side scripting than server side stuff. I'm kind of rusty on the above, so someone who actually does this stuff would probably be more suited. You could also probably pretty up the table ladder (probably should be divs instead) and do all sorts of fancy stuff.

I could just dump the data into a JSON file that you guys could manipulate. Probably better than me generating a table server-side. From there you could probably use JQuery to pretty up the data, have it so there's a button to show/hide people by tiers (for the IHL), min/max rating, people who played a certain number of games. It's probably much faster and better to do that stuff client side than me doing my shitty html tables.

There's also player and game data. With the player data, there's a history of a person's stats you could show on a graph using Google's Chart API. Just stuff like that if you want to get fancy. If not, you could probably make a better looking page with CSS than I ever could.

I mean, this is what a it looks like when you view individual stats for a submitted game.

It looks very ugly.

Tabular data should be in tables, not divs :) I've seen some crazy shit where people try to emulate tables with divs.

Well, the above is in a table. But the table generation logic is server-side. It would probably be better to manipulate JSON data with jquery/javascript rather than what I'm doing now.

Concord? Sony is ignoring a potentially great free to play multiplayer shooter that they already own, and that game is Destiny 2.
