afreespirit Joined: 09/17/2011 Posts: 305 Inactive | It's awesome!! Thanks Steve. One minor issue. As the game progresses and you keep scrolling down, you lose sight of the diamond and baserunners. |

Mig2012 Joined: 09/26/2012 Posts: 547 Inactive | Nice one! A bit slow for me though. Maybe there could be a way for us to customize the speed of text coming in? And yeah, it would also be cool to keep track of the result in a box score. |

Ajax Joined: 05/24/2012 Posts: 110 Inactive | This is awesome! Thanks Steve! Agree with the minor tweaks above...would be nice to be able to advance faster or using spacebar maybe? I would also only show the current inning's play by play, so it doesn't scroll off the screen. |

Achates1 Joined: 09/09/2012 Posts: 11 Inactive | Very good first attempt. My suggestion would be to reverse the direction of scroll. The oldest would scroll down. So the newest would always be on top. Matt |

Boomstick Joined: 10/10/2012 Posts: 4 Inactive | I think the box score page could be a bit easier to read. For instance instead of the newspaper style way you have it now, I would like to see it more like your ESPN box score, with the two lineups and their stats next to each other and the pitchers at the bottom. That I think would also facilitate a cooler live game viewer, as you could have the text and diamond at the top, and then the stats could insert into the box as they go. I know that's a bit of an overhaul. But I think it's a more natural way of looking at a baseball box score. Just throwing some ideas out there | ||

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | I can increase the speed a bit. I would like to make it adjustable, but I don’t have that feature implemented yet. I struggle with how fast it should go – if you play Hattrick or some of the football games, they stretch the game over 1 hour or 90 minutes (for soccer). However, I’m not sure if there is enough action to do that and with 3-5 games per day, who would have the time to watch them all. I was targeting ~10 minutes, but maybe five would be better. In terms of the scrolling…there seems to be some who what it to scroll in reverse while other would like to just see one inning (or half inning?) of action. Will look into what it takes to implement those changes. Thanks for all the feedback, Steve |

Erkuza Joined: 05/08/2012 Posts: 137 Inactive | Steve, when you go and see the game results it does not show want runs were scored in what inning. Can you fix that? Right now it only shows the final score. | ||
#2460 | 01/14/2013 1:17:54 pm | ||
Boomstick Joined: 10/10/2012 Posts: 4 Inactive | Yeah a live box score would be awesome I think, and more exciting to watch than the game summary. I know its a big change though. Just something I thought would be cool. | ||

Right now it only shows the final score. So you want something that looks like this (but with proper formatting), right? Club 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 R H E Atlanta 0 0 0 0 2 0 1 0 0 0 0 – 3 9 1 Minnesota 2 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 - 4 9 0 Or did you mean something more like: Bottom 1st: Cleveland - S. Choo struck out looking - J. Kipnis grounded out to second - L. Chisenhall singled to shallow right - R. Canzler walked, L. Chisenhall to second - T. Hafner grounded out to first 0 runs, 1 hits, 0 errors Chi White Sox 0, Cleveland 0 Steve Updated Monday, January 14 2013 @ 1:43:32 pm PST |

Just something I thought would be cool. Okay, think I know what you’d like. It’s kind of the presentation when you watch the games live on Yahoo or ESPN where there is a brief inning summary and a “live” box score below. With this first version, there isn’t that level of information saved in the game files…however, I like the idea and will look into what I can do to move in that direction. Steve |

JayJeffery Joined: 10/05/2012 Posts: 26 Inactive | I like the scrolling text, I think a live box score would not be as exciting... two of the games I've watched have been 14 innings and with the scrolling text it made it a nail biter. I think the text feels more natural. i would also like to see it scroll in reverse so i can keep an eye on the diamond, outs and bases as I lose that once I have to scroll to the third inning currently. I would also like a speed adjustment which it sounds like you have plans for. All in all great first go at it... i like it a lot better than the 1980s bit animation other sites use! |

Boomstick Joined: 10/10/2012 Posts: 4 Inactive | If no one else thinks the live box score is good, then i guess theres no reason to pursue it lol. I just think it would feel more like watching the game happen, where as the current format just feels like you're revealing the summary bit by bit. If that makes sense. |

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | Actually, I think it’s a good idea…it’s just not going to happen with the first revision, because of the way the data is setup and stored right now. I wish baseball was in season, so I could see how live games are played out on Yahoo or ESPN. I think I will work towards something of that format. Thanks for the input, Steve |

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | The box score is still available through the regular means (under the results column). I suppose I could add the box score to the live score after the game is concluded?? Steve |

#2471 | 01/15/2013 1:50:00 pm | ||
Mig2012 Joined: 09/26/2012 Posts: 547 Inactive | Nope, the box score in the results column has gone missing since one of the live play versions came in and it's still missing. When you click in the result, on the top of the page, where the box score used to be, it's only the final score there now. |

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | This has not changed. What do you have for your Hide Score Setting set to? If you have “Hide Score” selected, then for new games it will go directly the game summary (with the box score hidden) – see below. And you have the option to add the box score with the Display Now link. For the other two Hide Score settings, the box score does appear before the game summary.

Mig2012 Joined: 09/26/2012 Posts: 547 Inactive | Yes, that is correct. Thing is, after you hit the the display score, the box score doesn't appear where it used to be. Instead we get this: Team / Inning F Orlando Panthers 2 Norshire City Raiders 3 Before it used to be something like this: Team / Inning 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 F Orlando Panthers 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 2 2 Norshire City Raiders 0 0 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 The Innings are missing now. |

Ajax Joined: 05/24/2012 Posts: 110 Inactive | Confirmed. They are definately missing from the results. all you get is the Final column, not the inning by inning scores like before... | ||

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | Okay, I see what you’re pointing out. You’re not saying the whole box score is gone, you’re just saying that within the box score, the scoring by inning summary at the top is missing and only the final score is reported (with a bunch of white space where the inning scores used to be). I’ll look into what happened there. Thanks for your patience, Steve |

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | Okay, I've limited the live score to include only the pre-game stuff and the current inning summary. When the game complete, the entire summary is printed and there is a link at the top to go to the boxscore. Will look into trying to get a RT scoring line included. Steve |

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | how about "time between next line-update" in seconds? If the time was adjustable, would you still want this feature? I think it might require a lot of server processing to update the page every second. Steve |

AmUnRA Joined: 06/17/2012 Posts: 299 Inactive | these are the "lines": Jeong strikes out. Kramer draws a walk. Kirby flies out to center field. Kramer steals second base. Sexton flies out to center field. and time (seconds) until the next line appears ... |
