[How-to BattleLeague] - [28.12.2001 ; 7:21 am - by *DAMN Elandrion]
Well, since there have been many changes in the BattleLeague and most aren't very obvious, so here are some tips:

Changes:
  • Clanladder: now the rank a clan has is determined on how many points the clan has. if a "weak" clan defeats a "strong" clan, the winner gets more points than a "strong" clan which defeats a "weak" clan. then there are bonus points: the more people play the more points gets the winner.
  • to submit the results of a clanbattle, use the ClanBattle Drop Box in the forum. I'm working on a "submit ClanBattle" script to make this easier.
  • It is now possible to enter a long clanname when you submit your application to the BL, e.g. *DAMN is the short name and Deadly Alliance of Murdering Nerds is the long name.
  • If you click on a Clanname in the Clanladder, a small info window opens which displays some stats about the clan. There you can also send a challenge to this clan: just press the "challenge" button!
  • Everyone who is registered can use the new features, for example every member can change the colors of: 1) border, 2) banner and 3) background. I would suggest that you just just try and find your own preferred combination.
  • You can also enter your time offset so all news will be shown in your local time.
  • Every member can certainly change password and email address.
  • It is possible for every member to stay logged in for a certain amount of time; the login information is stored in a cookie. if you have cookies disabled, you've got a problem
  • A totally new newsscript! Every admin who is logged in can post and modify news and polls. There are functions to add [code] to the news which is translated into HTML code on the fly - this is very much like the YaBBCode in the forums.
  • Everyone, not only members, can post
    comments to every news.
  • Every admin can add polls to the news...


So that's an overview of most of the new features.

Things to do:
  • A "submit results" script with a function to upload screenshots to make it easier to post the result without having to use the *DAMN BL Forum.
  • A warplanner for every clan to organise clanbattles and to challenge other clans.
  • Emoticon support for the news and comments


If you have more questions, suggestments, or if you just want to tell me what you thing, post your comments or send me a mail.
