Weekly competition 2012-01

[Mike Hughey]

I have to wonder this, will 8x8 be included now that it is available for purchase?

Not immediately, but maybe at some point in the not too distant future.

 

[Moops]

I'm really liking the new system. Well done Odder!

One thought. It would be great if there was a timer on the scramble page that could submit times.

[MatsBergsten]

The Odder site does not work for me.
I'm entering 3BLD and if I submit the same time three times it works
but if I enter DNF for the first and the third scramble (as was in fact the case)
nothing is entered (actually erases all times).

What am I doing wrong? (it is easy to fill in a form yes )

Edit: now I've done and entered 3 ok solves for 2x2BLD which works.
If I enter DNF 1:24.12 DNF for 3x3BLD those are erased but the times
for 2x2BLD are still there.

Ohh ya Mats, that sounds possible as I made a system that automatically detects whether and empty field in BLD should be DNF or DNS, etc I think it's making the first DNF into a DNS (that really sucks). Entering DNS as the first solve will erase that event's results

EDIT: damn I'm stupid, I had set it to delete at BOTH DNF and DNS as first result (well, I didn't explicitely tell it to do it, but that was pretty much what it was reading )

It should work again

[Carrot]

For larger cubes/bigger puzzles is entering 1:11.11 preferred as opposed to 71.11?

It should be able to read:
1:11.11
1:11,11
71.11
71,11

then it will be converted to 71.11 when it's stored in the database.

When it reads 71.11 in the database it will show it as 1:11.11 for prettier view
