Can you please kindly resubmit and see if your user name appears on the confirmation screen? This shouldn't happen unless you're using a custom stylesheet or you'd submitted modified or incomplete HTML. Thanks! |

| Boo_Mario 11/23/18 7:30:34 PM #32 | The original pre-contest BOP is still here: http://fghj.pw/cbx2/bop.php After accounting for eliminated characters, not much has changed, except Mario is now more heavily favoured & Snake is now less favoured. (See Battles 142, 146, 148, 149.) The vast majority of brackets still have Link winning and the top 8 winning all of their respective Round 5 matches. |

You copy & paste the contents of the URL, not the URL itself. So what you paste into the box should start with something like
and it should be quite long with some 600+ lines of code. I see one database entry with tiebreaker 778932 and empty username. Was this you? |

Sure, I'll do that... what's annoying is the parser for the bracket submission page actually isn't compatible with the "View Your Bracket" page (presumably due to differences in underlying HTML), so I'll either have to write a separate parser or ask people to resubmit as close to the deadline as possible. |

| Boo_Mario 11/19/18 7:19:51 PM #1 | Entry: http://fghj.pw/cbx2/ Results: http://fghj.pw/cbx2/bop.php I'd like to humbly ask @Ngamer64 & @NowItsAngeTime for permission to run the Board 8 Contest as well ... are you okay with this? I can promise there will be no more data entry errors ;-) |
| Topic | Where are some highly trafficked Kingdom Hearts sites/forums where we can rally? |
| Boo_Mario 11/06/18 3:59:02 AM #1 | From extrapolation only about ~1500 votes should be enough for a comeback. What are the major Kingdom Hearts communities where we can encourage them to come here & vote? :-) |

| Boo_Mario 10/27/18 10:53:37 PM #15 | Hi @Ngamer64 and @NowItsAngeTime , I have a lot of respect for you & your contributions over the years. However, if you don't mind...would you be okay if I took over administrating the entire B8 Challenge in the next contest (along with BOP)? I have almost everything fully automated on my end, and assuming the scripts don't change significantly on GF's side next time, I should be able to just push some buttons and everything should run on autopilot. But this is your creation so I didn't want to just hijack it without your permission. |

| Boo_Mario 10/15/18 2:58:48 AM #36 | @AxemRedRanger posted... So, um, I hate to be the bearer of bad news here, but you know that part where you're supposed to resubmit your bracket if you change it and this thing is only supposed to count the latest bracket submitted under that user name? Sorry guys, my apologies. Also thanks to @dimi161 who reported this issue via PM. I was using ROW_NUMBER() OVER PARTITION which MySQL didn't support until v8.0, released earlier this year! Turns out my web host has an older version of MySQL installed, so windowing functions won't work. I've rewritten the query & confirmed it's doing what it's supposed to.This means the bracket count has decreased substantially (from 63 to 37), but it's legit. only 37 distinct users have submitted their brackets over the past week |

| Boo_Mario 10/10/18 2:30:08 AM #26 | swirIdude posted... The matches are showing 31 entries for Rounds 2 and beyond, but 32 entries for Round 1. Did someone submit a Round 1 only bracket? It appears someone submitted an incomplete bracket. Should I exclude them from the counts or leave them in? |

| Boo_Mario 10/08/18 1:08:07 AM #28 | Sorry, I didn't mean to hijack this topic, but I realized there's a much easier way to enter & aggregate everyone's contest entry without using JSFiddle or manually typing out a 150-match bracket. The new process literally takes 10 seconds! Data Entry: http://fghj.pw/cbx/ Current Match by Match Odds: http://fghj.pw/cbx/bop.php (Sorry, it does NOT include the submissions above, but going forward, this should save a lot of time.) If you make changes to your bracket, just resubmit it & the BOP stats page will automatically pull your latest entry for aggregation. |
