  1. [17:29] <08Kirkq> Leaderboards timeline is not looking good; Maxx has been extremely busy IRL this week and hasn't really been available to make changes to the back end. I'm not terribly excited to update you guys with that.
  2. [17:30] <08Kirkq> Kiyura is going to work on some fixes tonight, but that's not going to put us terribly close to things being launchable
  3. [17:30] <08CVagts> is there anything tangible that we can show people on the 7th
  4. [17:30] <08Kirkq> I thought about that a bit
  5. [17:32] <08Kirkq> General statuses: The database admin interface is looking okay for what we need. The ability to modify the data should be there with minimal issue. We can manually insert things into the db mostly how we want to atm
  6. [17:33] <08Kirkq> the front end I think is put together to run very well for the functionality we need. It hasn't been styled yet, and the database interaction is definitely a giant hole in the system atm
  7. [17:34] <08Kirkq> If the accounts and runs could get to and from the database I'd say we would be doing well
  8. [17:34] <08Kirkq> but how much time that is going to take i don't know
  9. [17:35] * CrescentEXE has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 143 seconds)
  10. [17:35] <08Kirkq> so as far as showing things
  11. [17:35] <08GariPhone> in your estimation, how long do you foresee it taking to get something presentable
  12. [17:35] <08Kirkq> I mean that
  13. [17:36] <08Kirkq> that's the thing, is that it should take X days
  14. [17:36] <08Kirkq> where X is the number of hours devoted by a developer
  15. [17:36] <08Kirkq> which was far below par this last week
  16. [17:36] <08Kirkq> like realistically it should'v probably been very doable with the 7 day extension
  17. [17:37] <08Kirkq> if we had put in 5 days worth of work
  18. [17:39] <08Kirkq> I mean if maxx and kiyura could put in 15-20 hours a piece, it could probably get up and running pretty decently
  19. [17:41] <08Kirkq> which kiyura seems intent on putting in a pretty good number of hours in the next day or two
  20. [17:41] <08GariPhone> idk what the best solution would be
  21. [17:42] <08GariPhone> it would be nice to show "something" even if its not like a tangible alpha on the 7th
  22. [17:42] <08Kirkq> do you want us to get accounts up? lol
  23. [17:42] <08GariPhone> putting in that much time in like two days doesn't sound realistic
  24. [17:43] * vopeju has quit IRC (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
  25. [17:43] <08Kirkq> (oh hey somone finally removed the login bar at the top of the front page lol)
  26. [17:43] <08esi> that happened forever ago
  27. [17:43] <08Kirkq> :|
  28. [17:44] <08GariPhone> I don't want or need anything up tbh, it just sucks that time after time after time this happens with leaderboards, but what can you do
  29. [17:44] <08GariPhone> I understand
  30. [17:44] <08GariPhone> no blame being placed of anything silly like that
  31. [17:45] <08Kirkq> well it's free labor by people with real jobs
  32. [17:45] <08GariPhone> yes
  33. [17:45] <08jape> i think at this point its probably a good idea to not give any more deadlines
  34. [17:45] <08Kirkq> (and I'm going to point out that my contributions are pretty minimal in actual development, if I could help more I would)
  35. [17:45] <08jape> and just release alpha or beta or w/e when its done
  36. [17:45] <08GariPhone> which is why I don't think 15-20 hours a piece is realistic
  37. [17:46] <08CVagts> I agree with jape
  38. [17:46] <08bjw> yeah
  39. [17:46] <08GariPhone> real life comes first and anything that gets done is awesome
  40. [17:47] <08jape> twitter monsters and ppl are fgonna joke and talk shit regardless no point in adding stress w/ deadlines and promises
  41. [17:47] <08GariPhone> agreed
  42. [17:48] <08CVagts> so how do y'all think we should handle this setback
  43. [17:48] <08jape> tell the truth and let ppl cry about it
  44. [17:48] <08jape> literally anything is gonna be damage control
  45. [17:48] <08joe> tell everyone leaderboards is cancelled and then surprise them with it when its ready
  46. [17:48] <08joe> theyll be so hapy!!
  47. [17:49] <08esi> wish i could help but im going to be pretty busy :(
  48. [17:49] <08Goobi> tell them you want to save it for your favorite day of the year - 4/20
  49. [17:52] <08GariPhone> leaderboards is cancelled because of bad people who complain
