Excellent script, Foxy!

Could extend the include pages (for example we might be sent game links in PMs) also.
(It still works, just tried it, nice job!)

Thank you I will extend it to include PMs.

Very nice! Should be incorporated in the site

I do have one minor suggestion: also show for how many players the game is made

[Bruceswar]

sweet script! Woohoo!

I will add player info!

I've updated the script to show game players as well as extended the includes so that it works in your inbox!

Works like a charm! Thanks Fox!

Since you show the player's names who are currently in the game (i was only expecting a max number of players, so hurray for getting more!), would it be possible to show their rank/insignia too?

[Supermarioluigi]

I like this.

Now my CC life is one step easier.

[sherkaner]

Very nice.

One question though: if it's possible to request a single game through the api, would you use that?

[Foxglove]

Of course - that's why I asked for it in the first place. It would be far simpler than the multi-screen scraping/parsing I'm currently doing.

But I wanted the script now, and as there's no ETA for the new API feature, I went ahead and wrote it the way it is.

Thanks I can potentially do that - I just don't want to put so much info in the popup that it gets huge and unwieldy.

Awesome script. Thanks for it.

Well, you're right about that. But since the names are there anyway, it seemed logical that the ranks would be shown too. Could be interesting in callouts forum at least, where you dont know who you'll be playing. I dont know how much space it would take, but it's your call after all

lovely script - thanks

Yeah, waiting for changes can take long. But a list of game numbers as input for the API would be even better for you? There are threads with a lot of game numbers in the posts (like the clan league).

That's what chip requested for me - an array of game numbers that can be sent to the API, so I can get all the info I need for a page in one call.

[Incandenza]

Holy crap that's handy.... much obliged, mademoiselle!

[Night Strike]

Impressive! I'll get it added to the Tournament Handbook resources section soon.

Could you add in the position and/or round a person was eliminated? Thanks.

[Calidrmr]

wonderful script! thanks!

Np, Burt Reynolds! I'm happy to be helpful

(Is that who your avatar is? I'm guessing so!)

Fantastic.

I hadn't intended to do this - would it be helpful for a single game? Or would chip's tournament stats script (which already has that data) be more useful?

And Riazor - I will add rank/insignia info!

[LoeNY]

Nice! The script makes it easier to keep track of clan war and tournament games. Thanks.
