The FIRST Alliance 2.0

[mobilegamer999]

Building off that, anyway you could get worked into frclinks.com? You guys have the leg up on TBA in a few areas (stats, indicating WLT per match...low on media, though), but I'll probably still always end up at TBA if you don't have an frclink.

I just sent an email to the admin of frclinks asking about the possibility of integration with their system.

Also, does this only have the 2012 season? Will you always only have the current season or will it archive? Any chance of pre-2012 eventually?

We are planning on archiving. As far as pre-2012, we looked at that but most of the data is not there to complete the database, but we may do further research when we have more time.

This one's out there, but what're the chances of ever combing the Twitter feed and getting score breakdowns? And going to specific OPRs from there?

By doing score breakdowns do you mean by team? The twitter feed doesn't seem to have much more data than what FRC's website does short of giving penalties.

Farther out there - you know how TBA lets you search CD media, threads, YouTube, Twitter, and Flickr? Could you do something like that, but maybe preview the results on the team page? I'm envisioning more of those pop-open frames that would show (by year?) thread titles with the team in it and the first couple CD photos, YouTube and Flickr hits, and Tweets. I have zero idea how difficult that is. (You'll notice that my perfect world is basically defined as having TBA, CD, FRC-Spy, Simbotics Scouting, and Ed Law's database cooperate into a single place...)

That's a pretty good idea, I'll talk to grant about that one.

Promise the last ones are easy: is there are reason you don't show the official team name? Also, having the links red makes them seem like they're broken. (At least, to people whose website are Wikis.)

What do you mean by not showing the official name?
I agree on the link color, we might revert back to blue links.
