Hello, quick update on the changes that are coming to the website for season 11.
The Vital: If you don’t read anything else read this!
Rank Submission Verification:
In order to lessen the load to the admin team we have incorporated a rank image submission function to the website. Players and captains can submit rank images straight on the website for verification. This will have to be completed by the player/captain before registration can continue.
These can be submitted by going to the player profile; and scrolling down to the “Verified Storm League Rankings” heading.
There will be a display of any verified ranks or ranks still needing submission:
Click the image upload then you can submit a image of a players profile, having highlighted the statistics page and the required season / game types.
In order for a mod to approve your SL rank screen cap upload, it must have the following:
- Your FULL battle tag (including numbers) visible
- The Statistics tab highlighted
- The correct season selected and visible
- Your rank for that season clearly visible
- Under game types, please have QM, UR and SL selected.
Once you have submitted the image an admin will approve or deny the submitted image.
UI Updates
- Nav bar “toolbox” that drops down from the player battle tag updated to be in line with other nav tools.
- Bye rounds in schedule table
- Stats tab removed from player profile; links on lower left hand image card
- Unify some match views that were inconsistent
- Update team results to update properly when the team viewed changes
- Update division team list to update properly when division viewed changes
- Update division result list to update properly when division viewed changes
- Work on the past seasons feature to try and rectify its bad behavior
Back End / Developer Interface:
If you have any systems that interface with the NGS api, you will need to prepend /api to existing calls you have been using. IE: https://nexusgamingseries.org/api/path/to/api.
Additionally the parameter constraints have been tightened and should hopefully return errors, and helpful warnings if you are mis-using the parameter or in a way NGS didn’t expect.
