  • Sports Stats update

    From Kirkman@1:103/705 to All on Tue Jan 9 17:09:42 2018
    To anyone running Sports Stats, wanted to let you know I've updated it with changes for both the web and ANSI clients.

    The biggest change is that Sports Stats will only make one big JSON request
    per webpage or per ANSI session, rather than a bunch of small ones. This should hopefully help my BBS avoid getting hammered if bots view Sports Stats on the web.

    I also changed the installation instructions to show how to hide Sports Stats from public view on the web, restricting it to only registered users. I ask all sysops to please make this change if possible. It will help me out.

    There are some other tweaks, like using Tree.js for part of the main menu, and fixing the New York football teams' names on the standings page, etc.

    Let me know if you have problems/questions.

    Very nice. I only just heard about this. I've added it to the "Sports"
    section at End Of The Line BBS.

    Thanks.

    Awesome! Hope you like it. Now that we're getting past football, it should hopefully be a bit more stable. The NFL postseason is always a mixed bag.
