You can reach your own profile by clicking the new “Profile” link on the top right of any page on the site. From there, you can link your Twitter account (so other users can find you), decide to show/hide your email address (default is hidden), and update your bio.
This will be an evolving part of the site, but I wanted to get it up during this offseason so that Commissioners who want to make themselves available to prospective new owners can do so.
Let me know what you think and if there are other interesting places to surface this link.
Niv, this is great - thanks for adding the profile section.
How is the “Acquired” date calculated on the profile screen? The furthest mine goes back is 2015, but the league and team have been in existence since 2011 (league 52). Just curious
It would make more sense on this page to show personal championships (instead of team championships) and due to our lack of records before 2015, that will be an unfortunately incomplete list. I think an incomplete list would be cooler than nothing, so I’ll look into this down the line.
Not sure if it’s possible, but if you could link Badges that are awarded here to the Profile page, we could capture all history (manual, self-reported, but better than nothing)
Ah, this is a very interesting idea. I think our forums have an API that shows what badges you’ve earned, and this would be a great way of using that API. I’ll file this for future investigation, feels like a good project for my annual “hack on a bunch of small stuff around Christmas” session.
It looks like the Community Profiles link only works if the username on FG/Ottoneu is exactly the same as the username on the Community site, right? Otherwise it gives an error about the page not existing.
Ok, it looks like if your FG username has a space in it, it will be automatically converted to an underscore on the community site. I’ll roll out a fix for that shortly!
