Hy gals and chaps! Just a small update what happened in the meantime: Added new function to the backend to (hopefully) properly compute the observed Wv/Wn for the next weekend. Added some features to the observation table to be more useful (column subset and stuff). Some fixes on the frontend: element-styling in the forum, image … Continue reading In The Mean Time →

Well done! First round finished, as some of you might have noticed is that we moved the deadline to 15:15 UTC today. We got the last “oh my goodness, I can’t even log in” e-Mail 2 minutes before the official deadline ;).

Dear member We’ll go live these days! We decided to go live (kind of an early release) these days! The next two weeks will not be official wetterturnier weekends, but we would like to open the tournament over Christmas to do some enhanced testing.

Dear participants. I’ve tuned and optimized parts of the tool to convert and store the incoming observations yesterday (Sunday). Was running out of time at the end of the day and found out that I’ll have to change to a different software now which–unluckily–was not available 2.5 years ago. I hope that I can fix … Continue reading Problems with Observations →

A good example is ‘Züberle‘ which was called ‘Zueberle‘ and ‘Z?erle’ in the old system and resulted in ‘Zueberle’ and ‘Zerle’ in the new system. This is the reason … Continue reading Lottie and Lisa →

If there would not be enough major things on the to-do list: I’ve just wrote a new (now jQuery based) plotting or statistics toolbox. At the moment only a smattering of features is available, however, in the future the tools might offer some more and cool features. It would be cool if you could give … Continue reading The statistics toolbox is “back” →
