Topic: PSPong.com: getting close to go live...

Nothing has been going on the last couple of months,
so Monday, I decided, I could work a little bit on Pspong.com

see http://test.coonabibba.de/PsPong
for the result.
Please give it a bit of beating to see how it stands up.
Thank you.

It's not the final design (I hope!), not liquid and stuff,
but overall, I think we can start to play a few games.
Please leave all your bug reports/feature requests in the faq right now. (discussion wiki doesn't work yet, and I'm won't fix it now.)

so long,

Tyberius Prime

TP: Looking good

hey, Ds, you have 666 posts :-)

yeah, I'll probable call on your help pretty soon,
but for now, I'm off doing our yearbook...
Till then, give the thing a testing, if something breakes,
tell me about it in the Faq/bug report section, if you see
something missing Faq/Feature Requests is the place to put it.

So long,

Tyberius Prime

OK TP I have reg'ed and have requested a match so just make one up with some one like grumbe or you TP if you do not mind playing a little match to test it.

-- DS --

I have looked as well and like the layout so far. Hope it was OK I also registered and would be willing to helpo test the system.

Well it let me join and when I posted I want to play it immediately signed me up for a game with Darkshadow. Now that will be service. Will there be a function to signup for specific people? (For now they just need to communicate via IM's and sign up with in a minute of each other but would be nice with all the other terrific coding that has been done to be able to challenge specific people.

yeah, challenging someone specific is definatly on the feature list...
but not this weekend guys, I just came back from a 19 hour Yearbook-making-marathon (and the girls typed in everything
in capitals, because the font they wanted to use had only capitals in it.... We had to retype everything. And make a parser to read the questonaires... and then spent another our fixing missing 'n's and 'h's in the parsers keys in the questionaries... and this noon, they brought another batch. Again all in caps (no way to reach them last night...)
So, I'll quit whining now and go to bed.
Good night,

Tyberius Prime

Ok sorry about not posting , today I went out all day for the sun, which over here is very rare

Well Nightshade we will have a test match to test this thing out, is that okey?

Also I?ll take the file size down, as I can?t be bothered with a big image for just testing.

Emp: It's been lovely today , I went to freshfield's with a few mates for day and just got back about half an hour ago. But it's the UK so it won't last for long (the sunshine that is ).

NS: I'll serve back soon

[Edit - Serve is up, just a little change tho]

No problem I'm just testing some techniques on it. Your shrinking it threw me off for a bit but I just now checked your post here.

Little of this little of that and see what comes what may.

Hmm my return is ready DS but my web server is down

I will post the return as soon as the server is back up.

Return Served

Man I got to say the layout and scripting on this site is incredeble. Very smooth and allows everyone to get involved and attach their comments to the volley in question. I can't wait to see this go live! (not that I'm not enjoying the test mode)

You said suggestions?


1) Already made by Darkshadow I believe. Put in a limit to how many games a single person can sign up for.
2) Put in a feature to close a game when Finished (to allow players to sign up for new games)
3) Put a time limit on unplayed games (say a week with no activity to indicate game as abandoned) Not too sure about this one as I have seen Games at OA go on for months. Just a thought. So far though I am enjoying myself Immensly.

A suggestion : A brief description at the *I wanna Play* link that lets you know that it will automaticly random-match you. I clicked it three times to see who had signed up so far.

Also, the WIki forum gives a 404, but you prolly knew that.
