Sports Jeopardy archive

Post by ron »

I'm working on creating an archive for Sports Jeopardy, you can check it out at https://sj-archive.herokuapp.com/. The design is just a placeholder at the moment but the database should be solid and data entry is as simple as filling out a form. Obviously, transcribing all of the back log of episodes is still an enormous task, so if anyone would like to help out let me know and I'll get you a login.

Any feedback is welcome.

Would there be any way to mark which of the clues were the Daily Doubles?

They are marked in the database, I'll add some indication on the game board tomorrow.

The site is now available from http://www.sj-archive.com. I've overhauled the DB so that now it's capable of tracking everything that J-archive tracks, including contestants, incorrect responses, and clue order. 8 full episodes are archived at the moment. If you're interested in helping out and transcribing some episodes I've opened up registration so you can take a look at how that works. If anyone sees anything that appears to be working incorrectly let me know and, as always, any suggestions are welcome.

My suggestion: as far as I can tell (although I'm on a phone) you have to click the picture icon to see the picture and this brings up the response as well. Can that change?

Yeh, the game board is really sloppy right now, next thing i'm going to do is completely rework it. In the mean time I will change it so that this doesn't happen next time I push an update.

Another (old) game is added. The game board is restyled so it should look & work better, especially on mobile (e.g. it should fill small screens now).

Hey Ron,

I added an episode yesterday, but I'm unable to add anymore because the contestants do not yet exist on the site. Could you please add a way for users to add contestants? Thanks.
