Hi there,

1. Are you please able to confirm if this will be available in any future releases?

2. Do you maintain a change log for each version release?

3. Can you implement the ability to have multiple rules on the system. Currently there only appears to be the one section. Having them separated would be ideal.

cheers

That's awkward as you registered to my website username johnie42 on May 4, 2012 using that email. IP Address goes to York, Great Britain. Non the less I sent you the email once again. Hope to here from you for some assistance!

1. Crown System: Similar to what GameBattles use to do back in the day, and what eliteladders.com has in their scripts. It allows participants on ladders to challenge for the crown. First team signed up on a ladder usually is given the crown, and they must defend it, and win each challenge to keep it. If they lose the team that beats them is new crown holder, and they get challenged. It may give the ladder more activity because a team has something to go after.

2. I did not mean team limits to be on a ladder. What I meant was set the amount of team members needed per team before that team can join a ladder. Example: A ladder is set up for a 12 vs. 12 style matches. A team can not join until they have reached at least 12 members on that team.

3. Rating System: May allow for ladder matches to be rated based on team or single participant review. A higher rating lets other participants see that a challenge to that player may actually be played where as a low rating the match may be void because they do not accept challenges, or just plain bad sportsmanship.

4. % for Credits: Example is that forum keeps % for challenges and tournaments. % jumps from 10% to 15%. Can there be 12% between those to stay competitive with other sites that have % lower than 15% but higher than 10%. Also can there be a % retained for payout rather then a flat fee.

5. When looking at PayPal Transactions it shows the forum username of the member that purchases credits along with other statistics. When a user sells credits and is redeemed by admin it does not show the name in PayPal Transactions. I also noticed on all redeemed sells of credits the Site Ref on all of them is _1. Is that suppose to be _1 for all different PayPal sell transactions?

Hey i need a few things done as my halo website is really going to be big in tournaments.

1. If someone wants you in there team and click add member to team, they don't automatically get put in the team.

2. Allow me to put some sort of generator so it chooses maps for the game the tournaments for, e.g map1= Arkaden CTF map2= Dome SnD, Map3= bootleg CTF( This is COD )

3. Also a more advanced reporting system, instead of it just saying " i lost" could we make it i am reporting, i won,lost, and then the actual scores e.g 2-1 1-1 2-0.


If you could do this i would be more than happy as this is really important!
Thanks

Bananalive,

When joining a ladder that costs 10 credits it does not take the credits from the participant that joins. On same ladder set for 2 credits each challenge when a challenge is made it shows in Your Credits twice -2.00 for the same challenge. Attached image for review. I also attached image showing my total credits. My ladder process. When does the 10 credits get removed from my credits for joining the ladder? Attached image for review.

1. Gift myself and 1 other member 20 credits.
2. Joined a 10 credit ladder
3. Made one 2 credit challenge
4. My Credits 21.52 which I earned 1.52 credits from my challenge win.

In the next attachment for Credit Transactions you will see my gift to myself and to Member Host for 20 credits. You will see -10.00 twice each for myself joining a ladder, and Member Host joining but does not show names. You will see my challenge which takes 2 from me and 2 from Member host. Last is payout which I get back my 2 plus what I won minus form fee. Is it suppose to show names of users that join ladders?

Other User's Credits: I have attached image which shows current credit amounts. You will see that the 10 credits to join ladder was not removed and I am not sure when it does get removed. Does it get removed once ladder closes? Seems as thou once credits are needed to join a ladder they are removed right then, and those credits belong to forum for either prize payout, or just ladder participation.

Forum Credits Profits: Attached is image showing profit in credits to the forum which is 20.48 credits. I would imagine the 20 is from each 2 participants paying 10 each to join ladder and .48 was fee earned based on the 1 challenge. If this is correct might there be an error or bug in not taking the 10 credits once they join the ladder for which credits are needed to join?

Live Match Finder: I have enabled the Live Match Finder for my account and based on attached image works fine while looking at it in the ladder/tournament script. However when using the widget for Live Match Finder it stats "No players have enabled Live Match." image attached. Could there be a bug in something?

I also enjoy the 5.1.8 improvements.

One last thing and that is with the addition of background image for Player Cards. Is there a certain size in the script that the image is restricted to as I made a player card 460 x 100, and added image for background of same size and it was minimized in the center of the player card with my selected background color showing top, bottom, and side-to-side?

Keep up the great work!!! Waiting for your reply!!!

1. I will increase tournament numbers for round robin (32) and double round robin (16) in v5.2.0

2. Version change log is now on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BananaLive..../2012?filter=1

3. You can set rules per tournament/ladder use bb code [rules]

I don't know why you are trying to be rude/malicious and provoke a response.. but you won't get one!

If you set minimum team levels for ladder, then teams below (e.g.12) won't be able to join the ladder until they have 12 players joined onto their team. Click edit ladder -> min/max team members

Additional % have been added to vbulletin options in latest version.

I've added username into paypal "item_name" and "invoice" has been corrected for v5.2.0+.
e.g. "Credits: username"

v5.2.0
- increased round robin and double round robin tournament numbers
- round robin results re-design
- bug fix for round robin 16 players algorithm
- paypal item_name/invoice changed
- minor bug fixes

Nothing has been meant to be rude or malicious. I am just real and do not live in a glass bubble. You said you did not get my email which was ironic as you or someone with access to your email account to activate registration registered when I sent it. Based on the registration I just find it odd that you stated you did not get it so how could you have known about my website to register there. Then after the fact of some replies here that user visited again today shortly after my post here. I can understand being busy and even living across the pond 5 to 6 hours ahead of my time zone. Again; none the less, and thank you for the response. It is all gravy, just keep up the great work. My community has been enjoying this mod now for about 2 years.

In the Ticket System there are fields that can have text entered into. Attached image and when looking at the ticket after it has been submitted it does not mention any of the information added to the text fields. Is the information that is entered in those text fields suppose to show up in the ticket for the staff to see what was wrong? I created a basic support ticket, filled in all text fields, and don't see any of the information. I have concerns as to if a ticket is created that is basic like my example that just says "Please Help", we would prolong the time to resolve the issue as we have to ask them what they need help with. If the text fields information would populate in the ticket we would see and could start to work on a resolution. Nice update with 5.2.0.

Not sure if you addressed my question about the forum username not populating under User section of Credit Transaction when they join a ladder. I joined with my name and another name again and it still not take the 10 credits from my credits nor the other persons. See attached image. I am going to test a tournament now!

I have tested the Tournaments and the usernames where populated in the User section for Credit Transactions, and the 10 credits where taken from each of the 2 accounts. There may be a bug with the ladders as per the above reply image and the image I have attached for this reply. Let me know when updated so I can do some further testing, thank you.

Update:

I created a Team Ladder and joined it for 10 credits with my Team. It now shows in the Credits Transactions my Team paying 10 credits to join ladder. Attached image for viewing. I think the only bug is with the single player joining a player ladder.

Update 2:

So I had a challenge on the Team Ladder and settled it all out. Now on the Credit Transaction page it shows some names in the Description area that look to be forum users, but they have nothing to do with the teams that are listed. They are not members of neither team. This may be another bug and I have attached image.

Here are a few more suggestions that would be a nice addition to premium addition.

1. Allowed Declines Per Week: The number of challenges a participant may decline/ignore in a 7 day period without being penalized.

2. Challenge Point/Rung Restriction: The number of Rungs, or Points, that a participant must be within to challenge another participant.

3. Randomly Generated Maps: This would allow for a challenge to be made that would utilize 1, 2, or 3 maps for the challenge. Highly sought after by shooting games that have map specific wars. Could be script controlled with a text file that could be edited by admin to include the maps.

4. Accept Timeframe Hours: The number of hours allowed to accept a challenge - failure to respond inside this timeframe will result in the system processing it as an 'Ignore'.

5. Staff and Prizes Tabs: In addition to each tab already associated with a ladder such as Rankings, Recent Matches, Upcoming Matches, etc can there be Prizes and Staff tabs added. Prizes could be a customizable blank page that would allow HTML and could be created by administrator. Staff could display certain staff members that are associated with that particular ladder to answer questions and be the go to person by participants.

6. Winning Streak/Losing Streak Icons: Have in the rankings little icons that represent a winning and/or losing streak. It could be hoverable which would show the streak count.

7. Team Captains Tab: Have a separate tab for Team Captains.

8. Team Member Avatar: Allow for user avatar to display next to name in Team Members tab.

9. Members From: Have a Members From section in the About Team page. This could have a profile field created where a member could have a small icon flag for country which would populate in the Members From section. This could show 5 small flag icons that are used the most by team members.

10. Battle Light: This could be called anything but it would be an icon that would indicate to anyone looking to challenge if other teams are accepting at the time. This may help to avoid low activity as challenges will only be made against those that are accepting challenges. Could be similar to the online/offline icon! It should be either displayed on Teams Page, or in the Rankings which is probably where most will look first.

Null fields (e.g. 0 or blank) won't display.

So enter values greater than 0 e.g. 1,2or3 as tournament id or ladder id, etc.
