CD Events

[Koko Ed]

Why aren't there many events listed in CD Events?

[Alan Anderson]

Someone needs to "request" an event and have it approved. I won't presume to do that for events I'm not responsible for.

I just submitted the Rutgers and Mt. Olive Districts, the NYC Regional, and the MAR Regional Championship.

[Joe J.]

Submitted the Michigan districts earlier today.

Added SVR and CVR.

Can a moderator check the events waiting for approval? The events that are said to have been added in this thread haven't shown up yet.

I've added VA, NC, and DC.

[Pjohn1959]

Added Lone Star, Dallas West, and Dallas East

[SteveGPage]

Added Chesapeake

Why doesnt CD just scrape the FIRST website for this like, for example, FRC Spy does?

Does FRC Spy just "scrape" the FIRST website? If so, where on the FIRST website does it get individual match data for Bridge, Foul, Hybrid, and TeleOp?

Sorry, typo, I meant FRC Spyder, the Android/iOS app done by Wildstang, which probably gets it's data from a private server that does the scraping for it and maybe aggregates the FIRST web data with the Twitter data, though I'm disinclined to believe the only way to access match-by-match data is the twitter feed.
FRC Spy, the CD tool, from what I've seen gets almost all it's data from the FRC Fms Twitter feed, https://twitter.com/#!/frcfms.

Not a big deal, but these still haven't been approved yet. I noticed that CD-Media approvals have been slow as well. I know this is still a busy time of the season for everyone, but who is responsible for moderating/approving these parts of the forum? I'm just wondering if more moderators need access?

Maybe they simply don't care about this and would rather focus their energy on something they deem more important.

That may be a bit extreme, but yes people do have other things in their lives besides moderating Chief Delphi.

I checked the event queue yesterday and didn't see any pending events.

Well then something's funky, because I know that I submitted the Rutgers and Mt. Olive Districts, the NYC Regional, and the MAR Regional Championship.
