Sportsbook beta 1 presales questions

[oman]

Great to see the additions of event management in the ACP and the simplicity of adding the credits system you choose to use.

 

[RobParker]

Yep, will be an immediate purchase when it's released (current beta testing it)

 

[CritiKiL]

Yes, which is really close. If it takes longer than 2 weeks for the Store Front to be ready, then I will make special arrangements (for those that have been waiting) to purchase it directly. The Store Front is already up and running on xenique.com, so its just a matter of David getting our unique setup in place here on xenfluence.com .

I would like to be one of these recipients ;-). Then I can just add the Store Front in later when it's completed. Really looking forward to having this add-on Bob!

The latest beta version is running on the site linked in my signature and on the demo. (one of the beta testers is an admin) From looking at how sportsbook is going, I'd say it is very close to release. But Bob is taking his time and making sure that everything is absolutely perfect with Sportsbook, so I'm sure the final version will be awesome.

Its coming along fine. I released beta4 to the beta testers last week, so working with them to iron out any issues with the newest features while working on beta5.

 

[ArnyVee]

Great work

 

[Bob]

getting closer to an initial release.... shooting for sometime this week (baring anything bug related that comes up between now and then).

 

[Bob]

And if Storefront handles my custom code without hassle too.

I am sure it will be fine

 

[Bob]

Demo Site upgraded to Beta5, which will be the version available in the Store Front very soon.

Genuinely interested. Can I see the demo please. I clicked on the demo links given by you, but I am presented with "You must be logged-in to do that." even though I am logged in. Pl advice

Can the user money be displayed under the avatar

Can the user money be displayed under the avatar

Currently the only option is to display it on the member card. I may at some point build in the option to have internal SB cash display under the Avy. You can create a suggestion thread requesting the feature.

Last pre-sale question(I think) -

Can we use the trophy point system as cash within Sportsbook and will the trophy points then tally correctly on the member avatar - I mean, will winning cash show up as extra trophy points and losing cash show up as reduced trophy points. If this were true, members could earn points(make posts, get likes) to spend cash.

 

[Bob]

Yes, that is how it works.

Hi.

What's the Settle After date for?

And do we enter Outcome details once the event has closed, right?

Also, can this be managed by Mods as well?

Its not used for anything and is actually going to be removed.

Once an event is close, anyone that has permissions to "settle" an event will be able to see the "Settle" link (which is in the same location as the edit link). You can test this on the demo yourself

The Sportsbook Bookie Permission [Edit any Event] is like a "super bookie" that allows that bookie to settle other bookies events.
