Hello everyone,
The battle system has just been updated to a new version and I thought I'd fill you in on the newly implemented features:
- Added the ability to add a short description when submitting an entry (in addition to its title)
- Commenting on archived entries is now allowed
- All users are allowed to create a predefined amount of battles (currently 12) that they do not join (administrators are still exempt from all checks)
- All wins merged into a single field / simplified rankings
- Voting period can be altered at battle creation time (1-2-3 weeks)
- Newly created battles now go straight to the second stage (i.e. they start accepting submissions right away)
- When entering a battle, users are given the choice to either submit right away, or to reserve a 48-hour slot within which they can submit without penalty (limit of a single reservation per user at any given time)
- Updated overview pages that fit the new battle algorithm
Let me know if you experience anything weird, unusual or that does not look right. It's most likely something that I overlooked and that I need to fix.
Thank you,
The Eagle
