Presuming you use Windows, you can press your PrintScreen (PrtSc) key, then run Paint, then press Paste (Ctrl-V). Then you can save that screen image in a file. Come back here and post a new reply (not a quick reply, you need the full editor). Below the Save/Preview/Submit buttons, you will see the Options tab, but you should also see the Upload attachment tab. Select that, and put in the name of the Paint file you saved. Voilà! No need for any fancy add-ons or file-sharing sites. (If you are running on a Mac, I can't give you exact instructions, but I dare say that there are similar ways to get a screenshot into a file. The attachment trick should be pretty much the same.)

Not seeing the Upload attachment tab but gyazo is working so I can show you that...

Here's the original issue:

Thanks!

EDIT: You can use game # 9856887 as a reference point in the screenshots.

Hmm, maybe the attachment thing is for Team CC members only. Anyway, do games normally drop out of the watch list when you are eliminated or when the game ends?

Which number is accurate, as far as you remember? Is the counter too high, or are there games that you were watching that are not appearing in that tab?

Games normally do not drop out of the watch list on their own, I have to "unwatch game" at which time the counter updates automatically.

I believe the counter is too high, I don't think I ever lost any games that I was trying to watch. I really only use it to watch the games from the tourneys I run and haven't ever noticed to be missing any for my updates.

On a side note, I've used this script for probably just under a year and went through several updates of FF. I've had up to about 200 games watched at a single time and this is the lowest it's been since first using it, so I don't have any history on when the difference occurred.

This might happen in few cases:
Error in the script
Game was deleted by admins
Error on the API

The only way for you to reset the counter is to copy your watched game numbers, click unwatch all and then watch the games again. This will reset the counter and everything will work fine.

I was thinking of suggesting this as well. With only 5 games being watched, now is the time for this manoeuvre.

Thanks guys.

I haven't read the thread at all, so I don't know what's been said and discussed.

I have a suggestion that I thought of earlier today.

I would like to be able to sort watched games into different categories. There are various games that I would like to watch. My 3 main categories would be:

If we could divide games into categories, that would be nice.

Tournament Games from tournaments I'm running
My Games waiting for players, so that when they fill, I can check them out right at the beginning
Games for people that I am sitting for

Thanks for the idea. It has been suggested but I don't have time to implement it. It would be a great help to have many groups for watched games.

Would there be a way to have essentially this same script and use it for multiple addons?

Basically, you would have the watch game script, but have it separately from Watched games and you could name the tab yourself? Does this idea make sense?

I'm not sure if the scripts would be able to coincide because they would do the same thing, but you could turn one off and turn another one on, depending on what you wanted to watch.

It is possible for sure. As I said, the only problem I have is that I don't have much time for the tool right now. I am really sorry, but that is the truth and I don't want to give false hope to you.

Well, I don't mind it not being available for a while, I was just asking about a possibility as a way of implementation that I thought might be faster... I understand not having time.

So...do you think that it would work better to update the original script to allow sorting and categories or to produce a few similar scripts?

by **Dako** on Fri Dec 23, 2011 7:10 pm

It would be better if it was one script. Making them work separate will take as much effort as making the whole funcitonality into main script.
