JackerCon 13 (21st June - 5th July)

[mysticfedora]

It looks like Roll20Con is coinciding with one day of Jackercon 6/24-6/25, maybe we can crossover there for the day/night to make Happy Jacks more visible. I'm likely going to run something for it, I could do it under the Jackercon/Happy Jacks banner.

I have publicly threatened everyone at work if they screw up my vaca around Jackercon. Looking forward to playing as many games as possible.

Unrelated question: How long can a human go without sleep and still function? Asking for a friend.

I'll probably run a couple old-school games. Marvel FASERIP and Torg. Now I have to figure out how to get Tina Turner into each of them.

So how do we register games again? I'm drawing a complete blank.

Mine looks like this...

Anchorage, Alaska: After the Flood

Sorry, I'm trying to post my games but it's not letting me "Publish Game Information". Nothing happens when I click the long blue button. I'm sure I'm screwing something up from my end.

(BTW, I call dibs on a game called "Clicking the Long Blue Button". It will probably be in Fatal.

Got my game in there! Now I need to get to work writing it.

Saving Private Dancer

Sorry There was a bug and in fixing it, more have been introduced.

You can all set your timezone on the account details page, im currently adding this to the host game and manage game forms, so please bare with me for a couple of hours.

for your game I've manually edited it to the right time (based on your comment) and i also set your account timezone to Central Standard Time.

Thanks Baarune!

The website has undergone some changes the last few days, I apologize for any interruptions for those of you who have been trying to list games.

Changes
-event selector added, you can now specify which jackercon you are listing your game.
-viewing the game list is now ordered by jackercon, with games in each section being date order.
-the date picker has been changed to stop bugs on certain browsers.
-account timezones, you can now set your timezone on your account page.

ToDo
-daylight savings time is tricky to implement, I'm going to think some more about what the best way to do this is.

Thanks Baarune for your work on this. Note: I changed my timezone, but now when I try to Manage my game, the site comes up as simple text in the browser, and doesn't have some drop-downs and such, aka:

Sorry just saw this. Im at work atm. But may have a couple of hours after (in 6 hours) to look into it.

What timezone did you change it to? And does it still show like that when you change to UTC?

If you want you can message the jackercon fb page and i'll be able to reply on there faster, which may be better for troubleshooting.

Just had a quick look it seems to be a problem just on that page when in a timezone other than UTC.

The last thing i was working on was trying to get daylight savings time to be taken into account and it was that page i was trying it on. Should be a quick fix once i get a chance to look at it.

Keep up the great work sir!!

[Baarune]

10 second fix, turned out it didn't save the last change.

I keep getting errors when I try to create an account:
{"URI":"https:\/\/www.JackerCon.com\/home\/API\/Account\/Insert","success":false,"redirectPage":null,"messages":{"#notification":"Account creation failed, please ensure you have entered all required details."}}

I am also unable to see the games anywhere.
