Thanks for this. Love this add on for watching my tournament games.


One problem that still exists is that when I do a game finder search for my tourney games. There is not a game watch link under each game. You have to go into the game to hit the game watch link. If game has not been joined yet you cant enter game to do that.


Thanks again,
MG


Fixed, please install new version.

Nice script Dako. :)

My apologies if someone asked this already. But to make this script more useful when sitting for someone, could there be a "watch all active games that include this player" button, on perhaps a player's profile page?

This would seem like a more reasonable suggestion after you add the options to remove all watched/finished games and whatnot. But with this feature, you'd have access to all your sittee's games with a single click, and you can track them from the watched tab.
This game was once fun, but the necessity to log in every day finally took its toll on me.

Best Score: 4660 (11/20/10)
Best Rank: 1 (8/2/13)

Ok, I will add this for the next release. It should be done in the next 2 weeks, I hope.

Glad you like the script :).

Watch [player]6218845[/player]. For some reason, player 5 just shows up as his number, doesn't show rank/name/rating. It's still a link that works properly.

Please tell me what you see. Do you see green links saying "Watch this game" under each game? Do you see additional tab called 'Watched' with 0 games?

Small change to fix map names with ' and " symbol (which cause them not to load).

No version change, just re-install the script :).

No, not yet :(.

But I plan to do so. Just tell my girlfriend not to consume all of my free time :D.

For no I will post the roadmap of what I plan to do in the next releases:

1.3 - 1.5:
- Add menu and version control.
- Add "unwatch all" button.
- Add link (or input) to watch all active/waiting games of a player.
- Add an input to watch all active/waiting games of a tournament.
- Add "unwatch finished games" button (thou it is really hard to do, but I will think more later).
- Add loading animation :).

2.0:
- Secret, but I already have something great on my mind :).

As you can see, site changes mixed layout a bit so now the link is back on the inside screens.

Just reinstall the script - http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/58929

I like this one for 2 reasons/purposes:

a) Keeping track of clan games in league & challenges.
b) Account sitting.

Especially for the account sitting, as now I can easily check, if there are turns up, without logging into that account.

1 suggestion: Might it be possible to sort watched games into different categories/tabs ? So I have for example 1 tab for clan games, 1 for the games of xyz, for who I am sitting for a couple of days ?

Glad you liken it. Yes, it possible and I will do it in 2.0 version. Multi-tabs where you can name them and they have different games stored.

Right now I don't have free time, taking driving lessons atm and will have exams in 2 weeks. Also 2 works, girlfriend - thsi stupid real life swallows me whole :-D.

Love the script. I am currently watching 10 games, but I can't see any of them in the 'watched' tab.

Edit: Forget the last comment. My impatience was the problem.

Hey Dako, great work. I have used this script for a while now.

A couple of things that I think would make it much easier and quicker for people to use.

1) Can the watched games list be made to show the games in increasing order of time left to take turn like the "my games" tab. Can it also show the clock?

This would help a lot because those of us who are account sitting or watching clan games can always see when time is getting low and message the appropriate people or take care of it ourselves.

2) Can the tab also find a way to show whose turn it is along with the game clock.

I love the script, but you still have to actually go into each and every game to see time, turn, etc. Then when you click back it takes you back to "my games" instead of watched games. Then on top of that, the order it lists the games in seems to be sporadic. Each and every time I go back to the tab the games are listed in a different order which makes it difficult for me to remember which ones I have checked and which ones I haven't.

Now that I am rambling, I thought of one more.

3) Can this in anyway be combined with Foxgloves "chatglove" script to where they work together? So I can also see when t here is new chat available in my watched games.

I hope you know I don't mean to be picky and I understand if all of these things are too difficult. I am just thinking of ways to make it much more convenient for all of us. Let me know your thoughts.

Please try ti update the script by this link - http://userscripts.org/scripts/source/58929.user.js
It should solve 1) and 2).

I will think on 3) but it looks like it will not be that easy to combine them.
