Casper, so if a user had some sort of problem, how would they contact staff? Using IM's isn't always the most efficient way. Staff would (if this ladder takes off) be swamped by IM's.

Perhaps post it on the forums?

That will be where the admin section will come in.

All three levels of staff will have their own permissions in the admin section. When a member has a problem they will submit a "ticket." Then it will be stored in the db and when a staff member logs into the admin section they will see all open "tickets." Anyone that knows me will tell you that I hate IM, so it won't be used as a means of communication, just in your profile.

I love that idea. If people think it will go over well, then I would be happy to integrate it. Won't be too much different on the code end, so if people like it, I'm down.

even if it is not used as win/loss maybe you can create a field when logging the loss or win by the users to also have them logg the total score of the games this will give everyone a good idea of how it would work if it was based on scoring maybe have a list of total points ladder also.. that way there would be 2 ladders one for win/loss and 1 for total points war?

just an idea.. this would get people more use to logging the points and over time maybe the ladder can be switched over to a points system ladder

What if They add up the score wrong? Or they try to edit it so they win. Idk if that would work, seems more of a problem than a solution, THis is really looking good.

Just wanted to let all parties involved know that I haven't given up working on this, but am sidetracked on another project here on this forum.

Seems I am over-extending myself. But, the project I have started could intergrate very well with this one. Anyhow, just an update.

Jus wanted to let everyone know that I am going back to work on this project as the one that I was sidetracked on is complete. Thanks for your patience, and I'll continue to update when I have more info.

OK, I have finished the weapons layout pages, this will have a lot ot do with clan challenges and such so that you can choose what weapons you want to allow to be in the match.

I am still gettin re-familiar with the coding I've done, but I think I will start on the clan challenging now along with the rung of the ladder as they will be relational.
