Superb New Meter Board functionality!

As it has appeared in the last hour, and no-one else has yet commented on it, just thought I should start a thread to advertise the fact that the incredible Mr.Lemon seems to have been hard at work enhancing the Meter Board functionality, for those who have their logbooks public.

When drilling down to an individual's monthly detail page from the Meter Board there is now a new "Season Bests" button below the "View Logbook" button.

Clicking this shows a new page with up to 10 of your season's best times/distances for each of the nine nonathlon events, with date rowed, time/distance and split.

Awesome! Respect to Mr.Lemon!

Stupendous achievement Mr Lemon!!!

(Oh one tiny thing - can it have the 6k ranking distance too?)

Just punched in my km's - and then on to the logbook...the new button stared at me... Mr. Lemon, you are a genius! I'm glad when my computer boots up on the frist try, and here you program away, steering the FS boats to the moon!

Now that *is* clever. Well done Jonathan!

I know Mr Lemon just *loves* the nitpicking so I will just mention that he has a colon instead of a decimal point on the splits

Fantastic work Jonathan!

It doesn't just show your season bests; it shows a full history of how your SB has developed duing the year.

Remind me to buy you a pint (or several) if you ever make it over to Dublin.

Don't know when it happened, but I see that Jonathan has already seen fit to grant Mike's request for the 6K ranking distance as well...

Once again, great job!

Superb work - thank you, you are a star. Wonderful to see how the pb's have developed over a period of time.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words. The FreeSpirits effect at work again - things just have to keep getting better!

Mike - no problem, I added the 6K event as well.

Thomas - oops. Glad to see some sharp eyes out there, fixed!

And I should credit Max for sending me an email discussing the board that motivated me to add these improvements.

Great stuff, really good to help keep the motivation going to see how things have developed over the season.

Top job!

This web site is just the d**s boll***s !

well done Jonathan - a nice touch
However there is an error on my 500 m times. I have never achieved 1:26.0 for 500m. I checked my own log on the concept2 site (13 August this year) and the piece in question was a 2:26.0 cooldown. My true pb was achieved 31 August this year and seems to be missed out.

Stan - did you happen to go back and edit your time after it was entered? In order to speed things up, I don't copy the full C2 logbook each time the logs are displayed, but do an incremental update.

This does mean if you go back more than 3 days and edit the C2 entries, they won't show up on the FS site unless the logbook is reloaded. (easy enough to do, but there isn't a button for this...)

I just did the reload, and it now shows your 31-aug entry for 500m.

Cheers!

I love this new functionality.

Now, if only we could get the web page to burn the calories for us we could nip down the pub and avoid all this rowing malarky.

Stan · Post by **Stan** » Sun Nov 26, 2006 6:52 pm

Hi Jonathan - no I made no changes to the C2 log - the C2 log always said 2:26 rather than 1:26. However it seems fine now so I guess everything is fixed.

I just had another bright idea for Jonathan's idle moments.

How about one of those graphs where it plots your position in the league on a day to day (week to week?) basis.

And if you could select and compare a few people? Since BIRC I have made a move up the table (marathon training) and it would be nice to see how I am moving up compared to others.
