RE: Introducing Contest Hero [0.1.9]

in #utopian-io6 years ago

Hey, @tobias-g.

There are certainly many contests running on STEEM, and having a (dare I say it) centralized location for them, in my mind, would be beneficial. I guess time will tell what others think about it, not only from what they say, but what they ultimately do.

Looks like you've got plenty of features implemented and more coming. I seem to be having trouble loading the page in Firefox.

Do you happen to have a goal in mind, if not a clear deadline, as to when this might be up and running with all the features you plan to put into place? No hurry, but my guess is you'd like to have it ready to go (bug free, of course) within a couple of months or so, if not sooner.

Thanks for your feedback, I really appreciate it!

Strange you're having trouble on Firefox, I see there are a few layout issues but it seems to load. Some of the links in my post were broken due to a fix I did in relation to the Utopian moderator's feedback so that might be why some didn't load. https://contesthero.io should work :S if it doesn't and you have the time it would be great if you could add an issue and some extra details to an issue on GitHub https://github.com/tobias-g1/contest-hero/issues. In terms of the layout and other bugs I can replicate on other browsers I will resolve those tomorrow. As this is a first version the majority of my testing has been done on Chrome, but will up my game with other browsers to make sure everything is running smoothly.

In terms of a goal, I would hope that there would have the ability to select winners and edit contests and entries done sometime this week (edit contest is basically finished locally already) and from there I think there should be enough to start pushing a few contests of my own to get a few other people using the site. Like you say I will want to have it bug-free to, so I'll likely open it up to the bug hunting whitelist at Utopian to see if they can help speed up that the process up, but overall shouldn't be too long getting those bugs ticked off. So long story short, it should be weeks rather than months to deliver the items mentioned and getting something everyone can enjoy up (note: the main function could be used already and creating contests and entries should work as expected, minus the mentioned above :)) Stay tuned as more features will be coming soon :)

hey, @tobias-g.

Okay, so if all goes well, weeks rather than months.

I've tried the link in Chrome, Safari and Firefox now and it just times out. I'll try to add that to the github issues link you provided but I'll need to set up an account there first. Not sure exactly what I would say other than it's not loading in any browsers I have. I'm on a Mac, too, if that makes any difference.

I will also keep checking back periodically to see what progress there may be. I don't know how many contests I'll be making personally, but it will be great to see what others are doing.
