CC Private Message Team 0.5

Given the game number, you can use the Conquer Club API to get information about a game, including the name of the map, and the tournament title, if any. No need for unsafeWindow accesses. There is a stickied topic about the API in the Tools Development forum.

Yeah, I really didn't want to hit the CC API. That may end up being the best route. The other option that I am considering is just grabbing the inline JS from the script tag and running some string searching on it.

BOB is using that other option for getting the map data, it might be the better choice in this case.

this does not work for me. the button is there, and the "push button" animation works when i click it, but it does nothing else.

FF 8.0 Windows 7

Any reason why you haven't upgraded to FF10?

In any case, I have changed the first post to state that only the latest versions of browsers are supported. Unfortunately I don't/can't keep old versions installed.

LOL, I guess I wasn't even aware it was out... or I neglected to upgrade in the past because I read some of these add-ons/scripts weren't compatible and never revisited the issue.

Upgraded to FF10 and all is well! Thanks for the awesome script!

Ok, You've convinced me to use the CC API. It will sometimes take upwards of half a second for it to get data back but oh well...

For the new subject I like the format "Our <mapname> <quads, triples, doubles> for <tournament name>". So for me this would be "Our Flanders 1302 doubles for Davis Cup 2012 [TPA2]". The maximum character length for subjects is 60, so longer tournament names will be cut off. However, tournament names are unique enough that it should still be OK. (It could be shortened a bit by using trips and dubs. Any opinion?)

Any suggestions for adding anything more to the default message body or is the game number enough?

[ender516]

Does the size of the team really add anything to the subject if there is a tournament involved? Do you find yourself in different size games in the same tourney? I would use "Our <mapname> game for <tournament>" or "Our <mapname> <doubles, triples, quadruples> game". You could leave out "game", especially in the tournament version to get more useful text.

I'm agreeing with ender.

You could probably leave the word 'Our' off of the front as well. I'm not sure that the tournament names need in there either.

Also agree, and thanks for picking up on the suggestion

[HardAttack]

are you planning to extend this beautiful tool with an additional property,
such as,
automatic wall message to the whole team players ?

btw, great work pal, nicely done, thank you.

Can you change the auto message "Our Team Game [game]xxxxxxxx[/game]" into "[game]xxxxx[/game]" ? No need to use "our team game" text part IMO. What do you think ?

[ThrushAAX]

OK, finally uploaded version 0.5. I actually had worked on it a few weeks ago but just finalized it now.

Game number is removed from subject as you can't really use it. Instead if shows the map name and the game type or the tournament name. No more "Our"

[jetsetwilly]

Many thanks

[macbone]

Awesome update, thrush!

[HardAttack]

Nice work pal

[chapcrap]

Can the next update make the script work on https://www.conquerclub.com ?

[ender516]

You can test drive a fix like that yourself, chapcrap. Go to the Greasemonkey drop down menu and select Manage User Scripts. Then click on the Options button next to the name of this script. You should see a dialog box with the User Settings tab showing. The top half is for included pages. Click the Add.. button and type in https://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=*, which corresponds to the Script Setting string, but with the https protocol.
