I'm also interested in the following question: How many reports can fit in a list? In our seasonal league, there are often more than 1000 messages, which means more than 500 reports. How many lines can fit in a list post? And what happens if this limit is exceeded?

Regarding reports and confirmations. Currently, we are used to one player writing a report, and another confirming it by quoting, so that when reading, it is clear that it is about the same game. It is very good that the report is written in bold. And the confirmation should fully quote the first player's post (including the report line). That is, the post written by the first player should look exactly like this: post by Pit for LM ------------------------------------------- 25.12.2013 Pit for LM (Purple, Fortress, Tazar, Wistan) Def zloy_romantik (Orange, Tower, Nila, Nila) Jebus Cross 234 Thank you for the game. ------------------------------------------- And the confirmation post would be a quote, i.e., the quote tag should also capture the report line. --------------------------------------------- Not like this: 05.12.2013 Creator (Pink, Conflux, Brissa, Grindan) Draw Pit for LM (Red, Conflux, Moner, Grindan) Balance 123

Conflux test report

But like this:

05.12.2013 Creator (Pink, Conflux, Brissa, Grindan) Draw Pit for LM (Red, Conflux, Moner, Grindan) Balance 123
Conflux test report

Thank you for the game.

Also, the organizers need to be able to edit the very first post with the tournament description (Russian and English versions). During the tournament, we often make additions and corrections. If the tournament consists of several large parts (registration, groups, qualifying rounds, playoffs), then in the regulations, we focus on the current stage. Users generally can't read a lot of text, so we remove irrelevant parts and add what they need to know right now. And, of course, we sometimes need to correct spelling errors.

For now, I don't have any other suggestions. I really like the system. Thank you very much!

I suggest that after the last changes are made, we test the system on the forum.
I think I will initially create a thread for reporting on the season (dates from December to the end of February), and at the same time, in the thread about the rating automation, Dirty and I will advise users. Let's see how it goes. We will collect the bugs and suggestions we find and report them immediately.

Some unclear problem:

I played around with the report input form. And a question: when entering starting/main heroes, do I need to enter their names, or are they automatically selected from a list? For example, when I click on the "Starting Hero" or "Main Hero" buttons, nothing happens... Or is there a specific sequence for entering them?

Some kind of unclear problem:

Here is the screenshot he made:

For now, let him just open it in a different browser (Firefox or Chrome or Opera). The screenshot shows Internet Explorer 7 or 8; I haven't tested it on those versions, but I will try to find one and make it work there as well, although these browsers are quite outdated – only 1.33% of our visitors use Internet Explorer version 9 or earlier (http://top.mail.ru/browsers?id=1083897&period=0&date=&aggregation=sum&#sids=chrome,opera,firefox,mob,msie&percent=0)

It’s time to update or change the browser because when we finally launch heroesworld.net, it will simply suggest changing or updating the browser for IE < 9.

Most likely, this is because he didn't select a town, which is why there's no list of heroes. Although, it could also be because he's using Internet Explorer.

Dirty_PlayerMaybe it's an Internet Explorer issue?

You might as well say it's WinXP
Well, Opera, for example, doesn't react to clicking these lists at all.
And I don't really feel like reinstalling Chrome or Firefox...
I just checked specifically on a version of Opera 12 that isn't the latest (since they are already offering to Download version 18 on the official site). Later I checked on 18 as well, and everything works there too.

I specifically recorded a video on this topic; it can be used as a mini-demonstration of how to fill out a report.

So, the problems are on the user's end.

Gomunguls has the same problem. Most likely, it's an old browser version.
I also don't have the latest Opera, but everything works.

The video at this link will not be available to users because it is from an invisible topic. It needs to be reloaded into a visible topic.

Yes, I already understood and did it.
Mizrael doesn't see the confirmation button:
/post/711887/

But Cobra sees it and confirmed their game instead of Mizrael:
/post/711894/

Lol. Cobra managed to confirm, but I can only cancel :D

It was disabled for users and only available to the organizer and coordinators.

I have enabled it for users.

The display of the confirmation and cancellation buttons was adjusted. For a while, the confirmation button was accessible to all users, so they had time to report confirmations. When the button display was fixed, the confirmation for all reports was rolled back in the database because there was no actual confirmation for any of them; all confirmations were made by users who were not participating in the game for the reported match. The following changes have been made: 1) The display of the "Confirm Report" button has been fixed. 2) The display of the "Cancel Report" button has been fixed. 3) When a report is added, confirmed, or canceled, the report text is no longer added to the message; instead, it is taken directly from the table on the first page of the tournament. This is so that when the ability to edit reports is added for organizers/coordinators, the changes will be automatically displayed in all related posts (report, confirmation, cancellation), except for quoted ones. 4) When quoting a message in the tournament thread, if that message contains a report, its confirmation, or its cancellation, the system will automatically add the report text to the quote, which will no longer be synchronized with the table on the first page. 5) The "quick reply" and "quick edit" options have been removed from the tournament thread because they could be used to perform certain actions that bypassed the tournament system.

I can't test it myself. If I log in without a username, the list of players only shows the nickname and the date of the application. Do tournament participants see each other's ICQ and Skype numbers when they log in with their nicknames? This information is needed for players to communicate. And do they see the list of applications and comments from the organizers?
