Competitive Splatoon & programming. Creator of https://sendou.ink
Today's update: 1) Canceling SQ set now needs players and reason by both groups (requester and accepter). Staff can use this information to take action against those who abuse the cancel functionality 2) Better bracket progression in RR/Swiss->Elim re: avoiding replays +smaller changes #sendouink
Trophies are an upcoming, enhanced version of badges (by @hfcred.dev) - Models are rendered in real time - Uploaded directly on the site (no more GitHub) - Uses PicoCAD 2 and its full feature set - Quality controlled and tightly restricted to only approved tournaments - And more 👀 #sendouink
Newish feature but now with less bugs: when your friends is in a tournament/SendouQ match and either they are streaming, they are casted or their opponent is streaming you see a LIVE badge next to them and can open the stream right from the sidebar. #sendouink
In The Zone 53 is live now! Bracket - sendou.ink/to/3914/brac... Streams - sendou.ink/to/3914/stre... #sendouink
Excited about the update today! Seasons now have report cards you can download. It's a summary with a wide variety of stats (example below). Anyone can create them off-season for previous season, supporters for any season. Also: - build img export - app mode share page by hfcRed #sendouink
Today's update: 1) Calendar now displays 7 days at a time (current day center) 2) New welcome page to introduce new players to the site and scene with some Q&A that frequently come up 3) SQ challenge is now undone when changing map list and no screen status is locked in at match start #sendouink
Vacationing for the next 2 weeks so if there is something you would want to see on the site either new features or fixes (as usual nothing is too small to mention), let me know! Already have some nice things in the pipeline but never too many TODOs #sendouink
Agreed about the praise for Raiders I've been seeing. The gameplay loop is so fun. Widgets are so interesting. Makes me think what could also be brought over to the multiplayer side as well.
Something that might be a fun feature with the CV stuff would be XP races between your teammates or whatever. Since the actual XP could be tracked set by set and you would have this live view of everyone participating, where they are at and when they have been playing + with what outcomes.

Minimap detection was added to cv.sendou.ink give it a go and report if it fails at something! As an example use-case I'm testing here: automatically tag and upload vod with all the weapons and maps timestamped from the Area Cup (congratz Grey!) #sendouink
Been improving this almost daily! Give it a go. If you find cases that are not working (especially an event not triggering when its should or weapon/abilities/numbers wrong) then send me an example screenshot and it can be fixed.
Been prototyping Splatoon 3 computer vision based approach to recording match results, builds, replay codes etc. Try it out today and tell me how it goes! Either upload an image, video or stream directly from your capture card as you play. This all runs in your browser. cv.sendou.ink #sendouink
For those curious if it gets somethign wrong give the "Save fixture" and give it to me. I add it to the project and after adding them to a specific folder and fixing the json I get from the user I have a new failing test to the test suite.

Updates - instant SQ looking updates (old 30s interval) - split chat group/match, see both at the same time - tier list maker click to add mode (new default) - "is captain" filter option on tournament team export - fix crash for RR tournaments w/ certain settings + other tweaks & fixes #sendouink

To people who use tier list maker: would this feature be useful? Allow to toggle "click mode" where you can just click click click weapons to tiers. #sendouink
In The Zone 52 is happening this Saturday! Register now here: sendou.ink/to/3913/regi... SZ only Double elimination 1PM ET / 7PM CET
Making a new page aimed for newcomers to the scene that goes over the jargon and breaks down how to really get started. Does anyone have a photo they took at a LAN I could use for ✨inspirational✨ hero image. Perfect shot I'm imagining: no faces showing, game in the bg, audience or players included
Problem with playing tournaments is that I notice so many small issues and bugs that are too small for a normal user to report that it just right away blows up my TODO list.
