Yuki's Passion 1 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I know you got a lot on your plate, but it might be nice if the voting ability included a part that allowed us to rate how much has accumulated as well as how snow conditions really are, powder, groomed, ice, etc...

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted October 15, 2009 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted October 15, 2009 We initially thought about doing that and in fact began developing it - but decided that it would be way open to the abuse/misleading thing that was seen above re: Niseko's blizzards. Perhaps more open to abuse and a differing of opinion than just the simple current weather conditions. And the Now reports should every day report on such things. We do have the basic systems in place though so it is something we could reconsider and could relatively easily add..... Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted October 16, 2009 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted October 16, 2009 A few changes today: 1 The weather voting numbers are now being shown now consistently over all the pages - there were a few issues there which have been cleaned up. 2 Now this page gets updated every 15 minutes as per the other pages (it was previously updating instantly): http://www.snowjapan.com/e/daily/A_TO_Z_ResortVoteChart.php?caldate=2009-10-16 3 Some fine-tuning on the maps Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Been looking at that.... going to be really great if people use it in winter. Nice job. I'll be voting when I'm there for sure. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Been very busy the last few days but I see you guys have been for a long time! Looks great, I really love the maps. Hope you can catch a rest sometime soon/ Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 why not just make people log in? Link to post Share on other sites
SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted October 17, 2009 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted October 17, 2009 For the weather vote thing? Because it would greatly reduce the potential number of votes. It would also over-complicate things on our main resort pages as well as no doubt confuse a lot of people. Like I said, we're on the case - will be sorted fairly soon.

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted October 17, 2009 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted October 17, 2009 We have made a few changes to the daily archiving report pages: http://www.snowjapan.com/e/daily/A_TO_Z_ResortVoteChart2.php?caldate=2009-10-17 These charts can be accessed from the Now Calendar page: http://www.snowjapan.com/e/daily/nowcalendar.php Further work is being done as explained to enable us to easily get rid of obvious rogue data. We hope to have that working in a few days time. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
