January 2025 Update

Happy New Year, everyone! As we enter 2025 I am excited about the future here at MyFootballNow!



Because of the holidays there wasn't a ton of progress in December, but I was able to take care of some fairly large line items:



  • I have converted the team, player, and coach pages to all load their tabs via AJAX instead of reloading the entire page. This should make those pages much easier to navigate.


  • Someone pointed out that the home page was missing the player and team stats, and I'm not sure how that was overlooked! That was a bit of a larger lift than I anticipated but they are there now!


  • The last issue that was dealt with is an issue with trading partners reporting common IP addresses erroneously. This is because of the difference between the way that is tracked from the legacy framework to the preview framework. I have added some scripting that should help alleviate most of this occurring.




Thanks again for your patience and feedback! 2025 is going to be a great year for MyFootballNow!

Would it be possible to add two stat items, one on offense and one on defense.

Offense - broken tackles

Defense - tackles for loss

Might be difficult to get retrospective stats, but is it possible prospectively?

Please add sort filters to player stats!!!

Viewing player stats for passing with a filter of a minimum of 100 pass attempts or viewing defense stats for catch allowed percentage with a filter of 25 passes defended.

The first could be really difficult, imo, especially retrospectively. We don't know what play data is stored - clearly enough for plays to be show in a consistently repeated manner, but just going through every single play data point would take time.

The second would be easier - the game logs show the yards gained on the play, give the name of the tackler, so not too difficult to determine is a tackle for loss was made. Retrospectively, again easier than the first but time consuming..

Absolutely agree with this one.

These all happen, and a roll determines it. They are both simple counters that are no different than counting passes caught.

Yeah, but it depends exactly what is logged and registered in the system. For displaying plays, if it's just a case of storing player locations on the pitch, then broken tackles may not be logged. If not, you'd not get it retrospectively, and going forward it would then mean JDB has to code to store and sort internal data structures, change queries to report. Not something that can't be done, obviously.

TFL is easier as I said - info is already there in the match logs so can be extracted and reported.

I’m not sure why I even bothered.

Thanks Martin. Happy you know it all.

Is a “missed” tackle on a defensive player the same thing as the offensive player winning the break tackle roll? Or does it include being in position but simply missing/getting outrun?

Didn't say I did. Given my views, which I believe is ok on a public forum?

What I've said is I agree with your ideas, one will be more difficult to implement that the other.

You do you.
