Good idea Adak.
Maybe have a Thread deticated ever year at a different forum, sort of a HOST for the CC, a place we can go and talk smack maybe each year?
WII
2. I would have liked a place to check the points individually, but realize someone would have to keep this up. (say on day 3 I wanted to see where the teams were at- before Adak posted it here) - may not be possible. - just a thought, that might not happen and I'll have to suck it up like the rest.
i like that idea as well. helps build the community and spirit of the competition!
my two cents would be for the chimp challenge to have a dedicated website with the stats posted on the front page and a blurb about what FAH is and what the chimp challenge is. have the start/end dates and times for the next challenge on there. a page showing past challenge team winners and final stats. a page for team descriptions and links to teams. and other various things.
I wonder if we could talk IMOG into talking to the Bosses at iNet
about actually HOSTING it next year?
Just a thought.
I've always been a dreamer about how much support we could muster over Cancer and all the rest.
I could put a domain into things, no problem - hosting and that I can cover. The hard part in my eyes is creating/managing the page content. I could handle the html, but would not have the time to put into it... If someone can step up for that, we could do it. I could take on a supporting role if problems or advice needed attention - just couldn't manage it myself.
I'd be interested to see how you're inserting/updating the MySQL database. I've been messing with PHP/MySQL and trying to find the best way of handling that gigantic tab delimited stats file from Stanford.
origarray = []
statsFile= open( "daily_team_summary.txt", "r" )
for aRow in statsFile:
origarray.append(aRow.split('\t'))
statsFile.close()
