Title: Gameroom Links
Post by PMertens on Jan 7th, 2010, 12:33am
I guess the following links might need an update:

Local Players > directs me to bot-development
(does work fine in the NavBar)

Tournaments-WC > directs me to the 2009 WC

thanks

Minor addendum:
In the upper right links labeled "Community" the following links appear:

# Chat
# Forum
# Wiki
# Mob Game
# Comm. Games
# Recent Logins
# Local Players

All of them have something to do with getting players in touch with each other, except for "Recent Logins".  It reminds me of Sesame Street where when they sang the song, "One of these things is not like the others.  One of these things doesn't belong."  I was going to suggest re-categorizing "Recent Logins" under Navigation -> Players, but then I looked and it was already there!

In the left bottom corner, under videos title, and some other places, there is a link to 2008 postal game video analysis by Fritzlein but the video does not work for me.

Has anyone this video, and/or could that link be corrected? Old dated links tend to give feeling of inactive site. Thanks.

This link should be working now. I moved the videos over to vimeo.com.

Great! I love these kind of videos. Is there others that enjoy them? Do the top players feel like doing these more?

If so, we could setup a donation account, where anyone could add money, and after some limit is passed, the reviewer in accepted review queue would get that limit amount.

If money doesn't encourage you (I particularly don't care about it), is there other ways to persuade you to review?

Thanks, Omar.  I really dropped the ball on that one, so I am glad you salvaged the video.

I could be persuaded by money to do more analysis videos like the one of my game vs. RonWeasley.  Of course, a two-hour video is an extreme effort, but if I made half-hour commentaries the task wouldn't be so daunting each time.  Also they would be easier to do with your new analysis tool, because I could prepare all the comments and variations in advance and then capture the whole commentary in one go, eliminating the cumbersome video splicing I had to do every time I switched from the game window to the plan window and back.

I'm glad that you don't care about money, because your donations of programming time/expertise would obviously command a higher dollar amount than my donations of Arimaa time/expertise.  :P
