v2.1.4

December 2, 2023

• Removed the overall Individual Level rankings on player profiles; load times for player profiles have been cut roughly in half.
  • Previous behavior showed the game (i.e. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2) then a rank compared to other runners.
  • The code utilized in this routine was inefficient, resulting in severe slowdown for all profiles who have IL times (especially THPS4).
  • New behavior will have this removed; this may be re-introduced in the future.
    • Note: This is ONLY for player profiles; not for rankings seen on the actual IL leaderboards (i.e. /lbs/all/thps4/).

v2.1.3

November 26, 2023

• Fixed an issue where obsolete world records would show up on the website's home page.

v2.1.2

November 2, 2023

• Added dates for when updates were applied from v2 to current day.

• Fixed an issue where the THPS4 IL Oldest Record board was accounting for the previous world record instead of the current one.
• Fixed an issue where dates on the IL leaderboards were set to one day backwards than their actual ones.

v2.1.1

October 30, 2023

• Added the THPS4CE Overall IL Leaderboard to the navigation bar.
• Added a disclaimer to the THPS4 IL Leaderboards to show that the WR Count table doesn't account for the "Zoo - Feed the Hippos" goal.
• Added a basic FAQ portion of the webiste to explain some things on how the website functions; more questions will be added over time.

• Changed the following URL patterns to shorten the links by a good bit and make them less confusing. The mappings are as follows:
  • /lbs/ -> /overall
  • /lbs/all/ -> /fullgame
  • /lbs/regional/ -> /regional
  • /lbs/worldwide/ -> /worldwide
  • /lbs/ils/all/(ABBR) -> /lbs/all/(ABBR)
  • /lbs/game/(ABBR) -> /lbs/(ABBR)
  • /lbs/ils/game/(ABBR) -> /lbs/ils/(ABBR)

• Fixed an issue where the webpage titles had the wrong formatting for some games.
• Fixed an issue where placement logic would become out of sync when a new run was added to a leaderboard, especially when ties are involved.
  • Note: Points were always accurate; this is a visual fix to show placements/ranks on a category while also ensuring they are accurate in the API.

v2.1.0.1

October 27, 2023

• Added a filter in the Regional Leaderboard that shows you all runners who have no country association known.
• Added a default "Internal Server Error" message page when server errors occur.
• Added a default "Resource Does Not Exist" message when the requested resource could not be found.

• Fixed an issue where ILs would sometimes fail to be registered in the database.

v2.1 - The API Update

October 26, 2023

• Added Sentry.io for troubleshooting purposes.
• Added a website privacy policy.
• Added administrator feature to "hide" categories.
• Added API endpoints for THPSBot to utilize in its v2.1 release.
  • In v2.2, will be adding the ability to embed related resources; need to figure out a good method to do this reasonbly and save on API requests.
• Added country flags next to each player's name (wherever applicable).
  • Country flags are outsourced via flagpedia.net's content delivery network!
  • Added a new library that converts Speedrun.com's very... strange country code formatting to ISO-3166 approved codes instead.
• [#10] Added support for a mobile version of the website.
  • Layout is a LOT more dynamic; should be very easily viewable on all current smart phones and tablets.
• Added the "Regional Leaderboards"
  • Overall board features the average points for runners from a country.
  • Regional leaderboards also have a brief leaderboard of the top players in that country.
• Added the "Worldwide Leaderboards"
  • Up-to-date count of WRs (Gold), 2nd places (Silver), and 3rd places (Bronze)
• Added "Oldest Records" for THPS4 ILs.
  • This is only for THPS4 now since there are soooo many ILs to keep track of; this can be easily added to other games as requested.
• Added "World Record Count" for THPS4 ILs.
  • Again, only for THPS4 ILs but can easily be added to other games as requested.
• Added a footer to the bottom of the website with a disclaimer about the website.

• Changed "THPS12" to display as "THPS1+2" on the home page.
• Changed the social icons on the navigation bar to be more stylized.
• [#5] Changed the formula so it only accounts for the highest placed speedrun in Co-Op leaderboards (rip Infinite Packle Points).
• Changed the profile page a bit to make it more pleasing to look at.
  • Reduced the amount of white space on the top panel.
  • Changed the social icons to match the navigation bar.

• Fixed an issue where names were case sensitive, leading to issues where "username" didn't equal "UserName" and errors were raised.
• [#2] Fixed an issue where the entire leaderboard would be shown with no pagination if nothing was searched.
• [#3] Fixed an issue where the searchbar on Full Game and IL leaderboards would show all points for all runners instead of their specific sections.
• [#4] Fixed an issue where the second player in THAW Classic Mode - Co-Op would not appear.
• [#6] Fixed an issue where the tables on the site index was off slightly.
• [#7] Fixed an issue where the navigation bar would "move" in some cases on larger screen sizes.
• [#9] Fixed an issue where players with larger speedrun resumes would have drastically slower webpage loading.
  • This is a partial fix; will attack this again in a later update. TL;DR: there is a lot of data processed on the player profile pages to make sure it is dynamic. Cache will probably be added in the early-to-mid term; more to come.
• [#12] Fixed an issue where ranks on leaderboards would display the incorrect rank whenever ties occurred.

v2.0.5.1

August 18, 2023

• Fixed an issue where new sub-categories would not be automatically added to the website, resulting in a desync error.
• Fixed an issue where new runs would not be properly added to the "New Runs" or "New WRs" tab.

v2.0.5

August 14, 2023

• Added an additional ability for administrators to completely refresh a leaderboard from scratch.
• Added additional calls as setup for the upcoming API Update.

• Added automation in the background to check for new static images every 5 minutes in Django.
• Fixed an issue where only the very last obsolete speedrun would be set to 0 points.
• Fixed an issue where the real placing of tied runs would not be displayed properly.
  • Before: the earliest runs held tiebreakers and all subsequent runs were incremented by 1.
  • Now: the earliest runs are shown towards the top, first, and placings are properly displayed.
  • Fixed an associated bug where some placings were incorrect.
• [#1] Fixed an issue where certain categories were combining with others if there were more than one global category.

v2.0.2

July 13, 2023

• Fixed an issue where non-World Record speedruns would not properly be added to the Latest Runs leaderboard.

v2.0.1

July 12, 2023

• Fixed an issue where the wrong category would be assigned to runs imported from the thps.run API.
• Fixed an issue where World Records would not start the function that would change all point totals for subsequent runs.
  • Also fixed a related issue where those same runs would not have their placings updated.
  • Also, also fixed an issue related to the last two that had runs resetting point values in some cases.

The "Fucking Finally" Update

July 2, 2023

• Reworked the entire website from the ground up, using Django and a custom-made API for future projects.
• Runs approved and seen by THPSBot on the Discord server are automatically sent to the new thps.run API; runs are added and auto-updated on the site.
• Category Extensions have been buffed to give 25 points on WR; same formula applies as before for subsequent runs.
• Completely remade the player profile, including:
  • Profile picture taken from SRC (if none given, will auto-use TonyChamp).
  • An "overall" table on the top that displays the player, their points, and overall rank.
  • Broke down games better and cleaned up the table to make it more asthetically pleasing (not by much lol)
• Broke up the Full Game and IL leaderboards into two separate areas on the navigation bar.
  • To avoid clutter, the games are separated into "THPS", "Not THPS" (i.e. THUG1 - THP8), "Handheld", and "Category Extensions"
• Leaderboards for a game can now be linked directly via URL (specific category in a future update).
• Uses custom Django models instead of a stupid JSON file for a "database"
• Overall and IL leaderboards with over 50 players will be auto-paginated
