Topic: [BETA] Killboard

Hello all,
Took a bit of the weekend but I threw together a killboard.
Since I do not have access to the API, this is going to have to kick it old-school.

Please post the Kill-mail details from your Agent>Career>Trophies/Losses right-click or double click Details
Then click Copy.
Paste into the text area unedited on the site.

Most ill-formed killmails will be rejected, duplicates, etc.
Please don't spam/post fraudulent mails.

The current platform I am using is free (but can scale with payment).
The webserver will sleep automatically when inactive, but can otherwise run for free with 99% uptime, and takes a second to wake from a sleep. (Be patient)
The database has a very low limit on entries for the free tier.  Which means we can not exhaustively post our historic kills, nor will kills posted to this service last forever.

Post here about bugs.  Don't try to break it, but if it does let me know.  I know there are edge cases I did not consider, nor do I have pretty user-feedback to help amend any errors.  Make sure your killmail is "complete" with the necessary data.  Using the in-game Copy button ensures the clipboard gets all of the text.  And the input is dependent on that formatting, do not change it. 

Also for non-English clients, I do not know if kill-mails are translated, and if they are: this will not work for you.  I have not internationalized my string-casing.

If all of these bugs and features get really involved I might push to github and do issue tracking there. 


TL;DR
Killboard.
Paste KMs.
Don't abuse.
Bugs-> Tell me 'bout em.
Better UI later.
More functionality later.
API maybe?!
Limited DB, data may be cleared.

Don't break it.
It is a shared resource, treat with care.

Re: [BETA] Killboard

- All the pages greater than 0 are empty. shouldn't be able to switch to them in that way
- dates are perpetuum-style (year 2218), convert them to real-life ones
- tried to copy-paste one of my kills from that CD thread - failure. special format required?

Have a productive day, runner!

Re: [BETA] Killboard

Thanks for the feedback!
Line, can you attach the KM in question?  I used some of these to test before without issue.   Perhaps the selection picked up some other characters.

The line* breaks are needed between the subsections.
I know it sucks, but I am not about to handle combinatorically explosive formatting edge-cases.

Basically the assumption is that any deviation from the canonical format is bad-input.
Again, not user friendly, but this is a remedial measure and demonstration of the datamodel (for later functionality) until I get the API key.

* emphasis for pun

And @Ville it will look better when I get permissions to use perpetuum media.
