scheduler thingy

Post by Dr. kitteny berk »

can we have a nice big button to show all future games at the top, not just 3 or so?

How does this sound?

- You can choose to have the Mini5cheduler show all future games, or just the next few.
(Saved preference. Default: Limited)

- You can choose to have the 5cheduler open with the List or Calendar.
(Saved preference. Default: Calendar)

- The Mini5cheduler will highlight any games you're playing in.


any more requests before I start?

Sounds very clever to me

Personally I would be happy to view all the future games on 5punk in the mini-5cheduler, allthough being able to choose is a very good idea.

Whilst we're on the subject though, I know it's fannytastical and all that, but what are we doing with the discussion board?

Do you think we should put it to the vote as to whether it's necessary anymore?

We still haven't decided if post game chat should be done on the discussion board or the 5cheduler.

As much as I love the ~!~ thing, I'm not sure myself if it's required anymore.

I like the discussion board, but it feels sidelined because there's no obvious, flashing indicator from the forum index that there's been new stuff put on it since you were last there. If you made the board activity more obvious, then I guess people would be drawn in a bit more.

Granted it doesn't really work properly.

What about something like this?
Takes up a lot of space though, so it would need extra special approval form the boss...

I like this idea lots!

If it can be done, do it :D

If we do this, make sure we remove it from the top silver nav' bar, as it's gettign a bit cluttered.

The New Posts icon for the Discussion Board doesn't seem to work for some reason, but I'll figure it out at some point.


» Mini-5cheduler version 3

• Fully colour coded depending on if you're playing or not.
• Minimize/Maximize button to toggle between Limited and Future list modes.
• Should be less stressful on the database.
• Salmon alignment adjusted by 3%.

Both. It's a threshold value based on the Karl Kennedy ratio.
