New website tdlist missing?

[Rob Clark]

I know this is a tad off topic, but its not just the tdlist that’s a problem. The top lists don't work either (under players) and there are a few other things that seem to not work (for instance players by province) or even the ratings or looking up tournaments.... Are they just walking away from an unfinished project?

[Fred McKim]

The website came back up this afternoon. The rating search isn't working. It's an obvious glitch and IS CLEARLY NOT OUR RESPONSIBILITY. I expect this will be fixed in the AM BY THE PROGRAMMER's.

Just chill out people.

If you need to see a specific rating go to the entire list. I explained how to get it a few posts ago.

The website came back up this afternoon.

I hate to say this, Fred, but I'm getting the OLD website.

[Bob Gillanders]

I just got an email from programmers.
They identified the problem, and fixed it.
Try it again folks, and keep your fingers crossed.

Yes, yes, still some spelling mistakes and editing to do, but stuff should be working okay now.

imho, the high-number-round tournament crosstables do no render well.

I would prefer to have a search option bellow the table and to use a freed right space for crosstables.

It is nice to see sort options in a player's profile. However, I find it by accident. The symbols should have better contrast.

The link (View this player's FIDE Rating) goes to search results.

Why not the same format?

enough for now

Any definition by which Kevin Spraggett is considered inactive is ridiculous

I took "inactive" to be related to playing in Canadian tournaments... anyone else think the same? The last time he played in Canada was 2004. Maybe the definition of "inactive" should include a specific cut off date? 10 years, not 7-ish?

The definition of active and inactive is given in the main menu for Who's Who.

Thanks. I didn't see that since I did not go to the main menu page for "Who's Who"
(I selected what I wanted from the drop down list...)

So, "Not active in Canadian play since Jan 1, 2008" is the criteria... presumably that will move to 2009 next year?

1) Yes. The format is messy if you are trying to find columns of rounds. We can probably work on changing this a bit over time.

2) I think I have fixed the English version now.

3) Yes, and 2 new elite player Governors. To do list.

4) SwissSys subscription - I'll check that out.

5) Yes. People will find lots of things over time. For example if you click on the >> symbol on National tournaments header you see something else !

6) FIDE - I'm not sure what you mean here

7) Active and inactive explained on Who's Who main menu. Could be altered.

8) Yes. The existing photo galleries were just examples that the contractor did up from the bio pics.

9) External credits. I tried to do this - I'll have a look at that.

10) Waiting for Associations to submit their info. I can probably do some editing.

Thanks for the detailed comments.
