Isorg submitted a new resource:

GameNight - Game Night, You in? Hosting Poker games should not be a cat herding competition.

First and foremost, GameNight is a passion project of mine. I wanted a way to help with hosting poker game nights that was better than managing an ugly group text blast ... that's how things started.

First it was Email RSVP, then I got SMS working ... well ... now we need a timer, and once we have a timer, why not have the timer on multiple screens synced together! And what if the players get lonely? We might as well have leagues ... table management, player management ... re-buys, buy-ins...

This being very live and changing project of mine, I am very open to any and all ideas for changes!

MFA fix, Messaging, and Fixes

Some Tweaks over the weekend.

Hosting can now send messages to the RSVP invitees. You can target Yes, Yes & Maby, All. You can send a targeted message, with a URL link back to the message give more information about the Event things like directions, what to bring... a picture of the host in a embarrassing position....

Is there an issue going on with Account verification emails? I am trying to sign in, but it's saying I need to verify, but I've never received a verification email, and when I try to resend one, it never comes.

When I try a new sign up, it says my email is already registered.

I would like to say the Invite part of this app, which Is what I plan to mostly use, is now pretty much around to being usable, without too many bugs. I still plan to do some QA on it, but good job @Isorg on knocking down all the groundhogs popping up in the way of usability issues.

there were 2 failed SMTP sends due to my SMTP server failing its trial period. I fixed that and re-triggered the SMTP verify for those 2 email addresses. I did send you a DM asking what email address you used. Don't post it in this reply.

Manage events from a text.

GameNight update: what's new

New: run your events by text message.​

• WHO 1 / COUNT 1: see who's coming and a quick headcount

Hey everyone! Shipped a batch of updates over the last few days. These updates cover both the front end and back end of GameNight

Front end changes.​

The event editor is now a full page​

Creating or editing an event no longer happens in a popup. Clicking "+ Add Event", the "+" on a calendar day, an edit pencil, or Edit from an event's details now opens a dedicated editor page, and saving drops you right back on the month or week you came...​

Patch Notes v0.1975 → v0.1979 — Calendar, Contacts & Verification Improvements

Tonight's updates

A few improvements went live tonight, mostly from your feedback. Thanks for sending it in!

Weekly calendar now opens to the evening. The week view used to start scrolled up at the morning, which was annoying when most games are at night. It now opens right where the action is: it scrolls to the earliest event of that week, and if week has nothing scheduled it lands on the evening by default. No more scrolling down every time.

Correct event times across...

App Update: Smarter Tournament Tracking + Timer Sync. (User feed back updates)

After a few live games and some feedback from users, here are some QOL updates.

A few upgrades just went live to make running a tournament night easier. Highlights:

• Automatic finishing places and payouts. Knock a player out and the app records their place by bust order (9th down to 1st). If they finish in the money, the prize owed shows next to their name, calculated live from the pool and your payout structure.
• Automatic winner. Eliminate the runner-up and the last player...

GameNight Update Roundup (since v0.1984)

Lots of polish and a couple of brand new features landed yesterday. Got in a groove and did some changes based off of some live games I hosted and feedback from PCF users.

New: Activity Log on the check-in screen​

You can now see a running log of everything that happens during a live game, for both tournaments and cash games. It tracks players added, buy-ins, rebuys, add-ons, cash-in and cash-out amounts, eliminations (with finishing place), the...​

🎲 Game Night Update: Better Cash Games, Cleaner Hosting Tools

A batch of updates over the weekend! Mostly aimed at making it easier to run a live game and keep the money straight. Here's what's new.

Cash games got a lot smarter​

If you host cash games, this round is for you:​

1. Cash Box reconciliation. New Cash Box button on the check-in screen squares up the physical cash at the end of the night. It shows what should be in the box, lets you punch in what you actually counted, and tells you if...

I set up and did invites for my first event for last night, but I think I ran in to a bug. I set the tournament up for 6PM-10PM and that is what I see on the event.

However some of my invitees were seeing an 8PM start. I checked their setup and in settings we had the same time zone, so I am not sure what is going on there.

I checked this morning by clicking the invite link in to a Private Window and that shows 8PM in that window. I'm guessing it's doing some sort of time zone adjusting on it's own or something maybe?

GameNight Update v0.2008 — Event Times Now Show in the Right Timezone

GameNight Update v0.2008 - Event Times Now Show in the Right Timezone​

A quick fix that a few of you ran into. If a host set a game for, say, 6:00 PM and some invitees were seeing a different start time on the invite link, this sorts it out.

What was happening​

GameNight stores every event against the home timezone, and the invite link and RSVP pages were showing that raw stored time with no timezone context. So if a host's account was set to a...

GameNight Updates: What's New (v0.2005 to v0.2022)

Hey everyone. We've pushed a big run of updates over the last couple of weeks. Here's the rundown of what changed, grouped by what you'll actually notice.

Timezones now just work

This was the biggest focus. Times used to render in the site's home timezone for everyone, which led to real confusion (a host setting a 6:00 PM game, and invitees seeing 8:00 PM on the link).

GameNight Update: v0.2023 to v0.2034 — Seasons, Money Leaderboards, Notification Center, and a Pile of Poker-Night Fixes

It's been a busy couple of weeks. Twelve releases since my last update post, with a lot of it driven by real bug reports from actual game nights (thanks to my testers, you know who you are). Here's the rundown.

The league stats page got a full overhaul:
