Title: ELBITE Matches MOBILE - Mail Notifications Thread
Post by: Gigafrost on September 04, 2010, 08:02:32 AM
Welcome those who tune into ELBITE and/or are competing,
 
Due to the fact that ELBITE's integrated Challonge! bracket system has a feature that allows for competitors to be notified on how they fared in their match ups, I would like to give the option for competitors to, upon request, be notified in an email message on their results pertaining to their progress in the Super Tournament. This is entirely voluntary, but I think it would help be of some convenience for those who are "on the go" often or if you have some video capability on a mobile device.
 
  What's the convenience?
 
ELBITERS will be able to simply check their email to see how one of their bots did during a matchup. In the email, a user will receive the following:
   
1. Tournament bot picture cards (see intro to match videos, the gray stat card thingies) showing weapon, strengths and weaknesses, etc. These cards may be more or less more in depth than the ones seen in the   videos.

2. Downloadable Tournament .bot file.

3. Matches your bot competed in thus far as well as a Direct Link to the corresponding match video(s).

4. Link to the forums and the elbite website (duh). 


  Spam?
 
  Of course not. You will ONLY be notified of your personal matches. This is simply an added benefit for signing up in the tournament.
 
 
  Well, what if I'm not competing?
 
  If you are not entered into ELBITE, you still have some benefits in being notified, all of which only pertain to non-competitors:   

1. Upon request, receive a tournament card on your favorite bot, showing stats, strengths and weaknesses.

2. Matches your favorite bot competed in thus far as well as an   indirect link to the corresponding match video(s) through ELBITE's forum thread.

3. Link to the forums and the elbite website (duh). 


  Awesome! How do I sign up?
 
  Simply post your response in this thread, telling me that you would like to sign up. To do that look at the following:
 
 
Quote from: Rawflesaurus
  Sure! Sign me up!
 
  Email: rawfle[NOSPAM]@hotmail.com
 
  In this format, the text [NOSPAM] is just there to prevent spam bots from seeing your post and spamming you. Put it somewhere in your email when posting to do so. This is NOT part of your email address and will be omitted when I notify you.


That's all?

Indeed. But remember, you will only be NOTIFIED. Please do not respond to the notifications or ask questions in the emails, the auto-mailer won't respond back.


Enjoy, Gig

@Freeziez and SKBT - got your emails.

Strange, I sent notifications earlier. Coding issue perhaps. Oh well, let me backtrack/diagnose for a bit. I'll get back with you guys tomorrow.
