Re: [TXT] Match Results via Text Message and E-Mail

I've gotten a few texts also from Newton saying we lost there (in Qualification 0), which would be ok if we weren't playing on Galileo. :)

Despite the erroneous few texts, the service has performed quite nicely. Thanks for putting this together.

Odd.

This is an amazingly useful feature. I've been following both of my teams, and it's worked great (and quite fast) all day.

I understand the "every phone has an email address," but my question actually wraps around the "text message" status. Is it really a TEXT or is it a DATA message. The difference in pricing on a cell phone are EXTREMELY different. It's something between 50 and 70 cents per data message, where most people have a standard text plan.

I really want to sign up for this since I'll be stuck at FTC all day, and I'd like to know how my kids are doing. But, I don't want to incur 10 dollars worth of data fees because I assumed text message, and that's not what they were.

Data is the Internet
Text is Text

I'm gonna assume TBA is using Text only :) besides Data eats up so much phone bandwidth and takes much longer to d/l the message

I agree. It's a bug that I am not going to attempt to fix now to prevent accidentally breaking something. Bug acknowledged :)

Re: [TXT] Match Results via Text Message and E-Mail

I signed up for this and just have a few comments/problems.
Overall it was awesome!

First bug was a match (QF 8 on Arch.) with 1547 where they were not listed at all, but another one of those duplicate team number bugs showed up & team 1504 was listed twice.

The second bug if you want to call it that was that one of my texts updating me about my team came in as an urgent message. Everything was correct as far as I know, but it just was weird because that one was urgent and others were not. The only thing I can think of is that the match in question was the high score on the field at the time? :confused:

I had to erase all my texts because I was running out of room, but as far as I know most of the scores that came in were dead on, just those little things were odd.
