Check your "ranking" while practicing

It works perfectly now ;D

But... I got the same scramble three times yesterday, and a second scramble twice. What's that?

The rest is amazing. Your timer is amazing as well! :D

Thanks for reporting this, I will try to improve the random-select code and let you know once I got a better solution

Hi G2013, I just made some change to the rand-select code of scrambles, you can try again and see if the bug is still there. Thank you!
 
Minor improvement:
Add country flag after player name. Hover on the flag to see country name.
 
I have just been using this and have a few points that I don't like.

- After a solve you need to press space to submit, for me that's very unintuitive.
This can be solved in multiple ways : A textbox explaining, an extra button or just auto submitting.

- No inspection time, I tend to use more inspection time than aloud. I would like to have a countdown, not sure how hard it is to make that, tough.

- When pressing space (to start/stop the timer oid), I go down on the page. So, I only see the ranking instead of the time.

I'm using google chrome, btw.

OPTIONAL: It might be nice to have all the scrambles from a round of a competition and see how you would have placed there.
That was the thing I expected, when I saw this thread.

Hi Eva, thank you for your feedback!
Here are the comments to above points:
1. Auto submit. (This is a good point worth considering in future updating.)
2. Inspection time. (I agree it's better to have inspection support, I'll try to find a proper way for this, adding to the wish list●▽●)
3. Scroll down when press space. (This is an known issue when the vertical scroll bar is shown, by default, browser will scroll down when press space( •ิ_• ิ)... I plan to re-design the page to improve these layout issue. Now, there are only two ways to avoid this: a. resize or maximum the browser window to hide scroll bar; b. zoom out the page content to hide scroll bar.)
4. See scrambles and place from a round of a competition. (This is a very interesting idea, I need do some researches to check if it is easy.)

Thank you again
 
@Eva, the auto-submit is supported. The page layout issue will be addressed in future. You can try again.

Thanks!
 
Bug report:

For Argentina ranking, there is nothing displayed in Mean PB neither for 3x3 BLD or 5x5. (I don't know if that bug repeats in other categories)

The table looks like this:

Ranking Mean PB (s) Player Country
1 0 You are Here

(sorry for formatting)

There is, for sure, at least 1 person who has done 3x3BLD avg and 5x5 avg in my country.

Hi G2013, thanks for reporting this, it is a bug when sync to the latest WCA data, I will fix it today.

Thank you(●—●)

I tried Argentina ranking with 3x3 BLD and 5x5, I cannot reproduce the issue you mentioned, maybe there was a network issue. (see below attached screenshots)

Please let me know if you keep seeing this problem.

Thank you!
 
Although I appreciate that you're doing regular updates, it's probably not noteworthy enough to warrant bumping this forum thread so frequently.
If you don't already have a mechanism for it, perhaps consider implementing a way to notify just your users?

RankingTimer doesn't require any register/login operation, so users are using it anonymously, I cannot just notify its users.
To solve this problem, I'll stop posting the data-sync info here, sorry for the inconvenience.

If you don't need to proactively notify users, there is a way to do this without tracking your users or asking them to log in:
On your server, keep a JSON file that contains all the times updates were made.
On the website, use something like localStorage to keep track of the latest update the computer has seen.
When someone visits the website, load the JSON file and see if there was an update. If there was, you can show a small notification.

(If you want to get even fancier, web notifications are now a standardized mechanism for notifying users even when they aren't on your site.)
 
Hi xtom, I would like to report a bug:

5x5 average times are not shown for Argentina. Why is it like that?
Thanks :)

Hi G2013,
Currently, there are 30 players from Argentina have 5x5 average records in WCA database, I tried on the timer page, below is a screenshot.

I cannot reproduce the issue you met, maybe there are some random reason of the server connection.
Could you please try again to see if still meet the issue?

(And, if you mean 5x5 blind folded, there is no average record for this item in whole WCA database, also there is no 4x4 blind folded average record in WCA database.)

Thanks,
Tom
