"Favorite picks" Issue

WorpeX Saturday, 8/6/2011

Two things, first, there is some crazy bug with it. I was going back through and looking at the results from some previous tournaments, and I noticed that there is always 1 cars in the 'Favorite Picks' column which was never in the tournament. It shows 17 cars instead of 16.

For example:
http://www.redlinederby.com/fantasy/bracket.php?id=40 - This tournament shows the 1957 Chevy at the bottom
http://www.redlinederby.com/fantasy/bracket.php?id=59 - This one has the Pontiac Firebird in it for some strange reason
and even this very recent tournament:
http://www.redlinederby.com/fantasy/bracket.php?id=71 - has the 1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 in it, which was never in the tournament.

SECONDLY! Can this column be a link to the car's page when filling out a bracket? Would be really handy when filling out your your picks for a tournament so you don't need to have two tabs open, one for the car list and one for the bracket. For some reason, its a link when displaying the results, but not when you pick the cars.

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback...I don't think I've ever paid much attention to the favorite picks thing. It was something I setup when we started without much testing or checking. I'll have to give it a look and see what's up. I can make them link wherever so that shouldn't be an issue.

However, I should say the plans for the update next year has the bracket page a little more tidy so you shouldn't need multiple tabs open or anything. This past year has been great for gathering stats and behavior of players so I'm taking all that to design the next version. I'll try and what I can now but don't want to start down a rabbit hole when I'm going to be redoing everything in a few months anyway.
