So I just pushed some updates for the app, the biggest of those being
- Your avatars show again!
- You may notice a form on left hand side of ranking page with a bunch of metal and material names in them. These are the new tiers.
- I added the language sort back in.
Twitter changed its API other day and I was still using one of the old calls. It turns out those pictures are pretty important.
Participants are placed in theirs based on their reading history. This feature was added so that even if newer readers can’t compete with the higher level readers, they can still win their tier (or even better get promoted to the next tier~). I’ll add another post tomorrow showing the tiers, how they rank, and their ranges.
However, it does not yet rank you by your reading in that language and I do intend on fixing that.
And that’s about all that’s worth mentioning.
Todo list: Undo in app (I swear I keep forgetting about this), Do something when you’ve met your goal (this too), Tweet when you get promoted to the next tier, fix ranking for language sort
Begging Cup
As you all may know, I am a jobless hobo college student so I’m usually pretty strapped for cash. The sever for the contest runs about 120~140 dollars a year and I would love it if you guys could help me out with the bill. We are completely fine for the rest of 2013 however without any help I will not be able to pay for 2014. Please donate anything you can, I would love to keep this contest going for as long as possible!
EDIT: I will keep a running list of donators here, If you don’t want to be listed let me know. I will also let you guys know when we’ve reached out goal.
Current status: 100% to goal!
