    Hi. I tried to make some improvements to SkillKeeper, and I've sent a pull request to the GitHub. It'd be lovely if you could review these. Thanks!

    Hey man, I was directed here to ask about name changes. Is it possible you could change my name to Kamui?

    Thanks.

    Aww! So I'm stuck as TDK unless I make a new account which would then get me banned? Ah well. Guess I'll be TDK until I can afford premium.

    This is random but I need a favor.

    Im trying to figure out how to verify my email address on Challonge, and the email address currently on my account doesnt exist and the site seems to not be letting me change it. Im on my account settings page and whenever I change the email address to my actual email, it just reverts back.
    When I tried to Google the answer, the second page results brought me to you.

    I never got the confirmation email for my account with the username Bonny. What can I do about this?

    Any plans to release more information in the BCN file? The BCN File seems to be a XML file but doesn't contain information such as match history, individual tallies, MU, Sigma, and Score

    Match history should be listed below the players. Everything else is calculated in the program.

    Is there any plans to include the information in the XML or should I take the match history and do outside trueskill calculations?

    If you want to publish that degree of data it might be better to either write your own solution or have people open the BCN file on their side.

    Can you link me to the Challonge bracket? Also, currently it doesn't work properly with two-stage tournaments.

    However I didn't get to import a specific bracket, I got an error after trying to authenticate my API key and my subdomain. I have the error code posted on the thread

    I created an account on 9/26 with username manju but never received a confirmation email. I was hoping that you might be able to send the email to the address associated with that username. I can provide more information if needed.

    Unfortunately I can't resend the validation e-mail, but if you can confirm the e-mail address of that account (via PM) then I can manually approve the account.

    You were literally the 2nd person to ever see my thread Ankoku and I don't know if my viewing counts or not.

    Also hi.

    We should collaborate. I ended up building a community site and incorporated TrueSkill to a lot of success: http://www.azssb.com/challonge/ranking/ I've only loaded a handful of rankings (25 tournaments for melee, 5 for pm) but I plan on releasing to github for other communities. I'd love to hear your thoughts about your ranking system and more so on the statistic side.

    My application lets me load different files, so I keep separate ones per game, yes.
    Likewise, any changes made runs a recalc to make sure everything's working, and the file is mostly just used for initial mu/sigma values along with an ordered history of matches.

    I also wrote in a feature to navigate to a specific point in that timeline to see what points and rankings looked like at that time, for historical reference purposes.

    What's cool to me is that you wrote your stuff in a web-based form, which is something I was interested in but don't have much experience with (I've only just started working with PHP+SQL in earnest). One of my bigger inspirations for taking on the project was definitely Aligulac.

    PM Virgilijus about the details, since he's the one who does namechanges.

    "Ban Evasion - 2 Points, 14 Days, Alternate Account/Impersonation - Indefinite Ban". Noah claimed to have been using his brother's account, which conveniently didn't exist until after his ban. Regardless, it was a secondary account. An alternate account, if you will. Unless my definition of an alternate account is incorrect, I think that warrants an indefinite ban to Noah J. Linderer.

    The point being, if I'm a good kid that uses 2 or 3 accounts as respectfully as I would in a main account, the worst I suffer is having the alternate accounts removed. I do not plan on doing this either way, I just wanted a scale of perspective for what exactly dictates the caution-line that Noah often treads on.

    I still do not understand is how infractions apply to the main account whilst penalties only apply to the secondary account. Noah continued to perform the actions on his secondary that got him banned in the first place. Yet, despite his secondary being banned after his main account was allowed to post again, his main account went unpunished for what his secondary account did. It's contradictory.

    Unless you're a moderator and can see exactly which infractions were doled out, I don't think I get what you're saying.
