Hi everyone, Now that CorvuSphere is starting to see some attention, there still remains a few issues. Firstly, I do like the concept and idea to implement a central application to collect and record games. With the recent additions notified on the home page, I do look forward to seeing it fully operational, and using it to record my games. It seems to be focussed mostly on TO level with creating tournaments. Which is okay. As a player who registered with a recent tournament, I am unable to load my lists as per the request for joining a tournament. I understand that I can load my lists when reporting the battle, but can a player actually do it just after a game, or do we report the information to the TO, who then selects all the information? It seems counter productive if I cannot allocate my lists to the tournament before it begins. And how would I even allocate lists during the tournament? Does the TO finally make it "open," and then we login before the games begin? Another issue is that I want to start inputting my casual games. But I can only make a casual tournament to do so. During my weekly games, we generally select the mission at random a day or two before we play. Now, that I have created a casual tournament just to play around with the app., I made it private and now I cannot search for it. Has anyone figured out how to find private tournaments? I would have thought that I could see my own tournaments I created, even as just a player and not a TO or WarCor. I understand CB want to accurately capture data, but it is hard when I cannot send it to anyone. No option to submit lists before the tournament (as explained in the ITS document rules). I guess I will find out next weekend how it should work.
I haven’t had any issues uploading the lists before the tournament. Do you have them saved on the server?
I still dont get how It makes the pairings... Make no sense. Saturday, for example; 3 players in the top tied to 10 TP before the last round. Sphere didnt pair any of them to play against. Also, it has problems with no repeating tables. But meh.
Yes, saved under my CB I.D. I would have thought everything was linked and synched. Turns out, it is not. Although I have registered for the tournament, the tournament page still has no participants displayed.
Partecipants need to be "accepted" by the organizer. I can see all of my Server Stored list from Army, even the one that are no longer valid due to cost changes... The old OTM sometimed did not display certain lists if they included a particular model, just try to edit a list and find it. They are pretty rapid with fixing things, if the source of the problem is known
Okay, that makes sense. The T.O. accepting registered participants. I can see all my lists, but cannot submit or allocate for the tournament. In the news feed on CorvuSphere, they mention players can allocate their lists for each match, and have 7 days after the tournament to do so. I guess it's better than before, in terms of statistical data collection. Less work for T.O.'s having to check everyones lists for meeting the requirements. (Unsure if it is done.) I will just wait for game day to see how it works.
I am going to highjack this thread for a moment. I am having issues signing into the CorvuSphere. I dont have a Passkey so I want to use the option of signing in using my email as well as my password for my corvus ID (the same I am using to log into this forum here, right?). But it keeps showing me an error saying "Incorrect username or password". I have tried logging into the corvusphere multiple times now, and as I am able to log into this forum I know that I am using the right email adress and password. Does anyone have an idea why I keep getting this error? Am I overlocking something?
I was getting that error as well. When it first went online, it accepted the login I use (my corvus login) but after a couple of updates, it stopped accepting it. I had to tweak my password (one time it actually gave me something helpful and said my password HAD to include something ... and the password it had formerly accepted didn't have that thing. Capital letter, special character, number ... I forgot which one it was.). So now my login for all corvus stuff has changed just for one thing - that gets used maybe once a year. It might get used twice before they change the system again.
Thank you for the response, but I have changed my password already and both the old one and the new one fulfill the requirements. I have now sent an Email to CB via their website, Ill wait and see...
All good. I wanted this thread as a place to put in concerns and fixes or ideas. I am unsure if the feedback option in CorvusSphere is a reliable means of communication. That said, I am happy with how CorvuSphere works. All my tournaments this year have been recorded in CorvuSphere and it is user-friendly enough. We in Western Australia are making it work and so far everything is okay. Only problem is the internet, which is terrible in Australia. Otherwise, the app itself is easy enough to navigate. I am glad that I can record friendly one-on-one matches now.
