GR4 - Computer Prototype
Stephen Chang, Sarah Han, Samvaran Sharma
Platform and Software Requirements
This works best in Chrome, but should work in other modern browsers too.
Source code and all files are downloadable here (as of build at 11:59am, 4/15): http://samvaran.scripts.mit.edu/bracketracker.zip
Instructions
View the site at BrackeTracker
In order to test out the site, we suggest running through the tasks set forth in the GR3 Paper Prototyping, which encompasses the scenarios laid out in GR2.
In particular, in order to see the "join tournament" page - try searching "Office Ping Pong" and clicking on the first result that shows up.

Login |
Not Implemented |
Settings,Friends,Profile Pages |
Not implemented. These weren't integral parts of the site. The social aspect of inviting friends to join the website is not the focus of this site. |
Sending/Receiving Email Invites |
Not Implemented. Not integral to functionality of website. |
Viewing Tournament Status |
Many of the tournaments are static pixel images. Only Round Robin Tournament is functional. |
Updating single and double elimination tournaments |
The process of updating single and double elimination tournaments is similar to updating a round robin tournament. We felt that updating a round robin tournament is indicative of the entire process. |
Password Protected Tournaments |
All the tournaments you can join are not password protected. By clicking on a tournament that you cannot join, you can see the Password prompt. |

Wiki presentation: nice and clear, and good explaination of shallow vs. deep parts
Fidelity: very good: looks like a final implemantation, and covers the scenarios
Usability: if user isn't a tounament not an admin, the design should make it clear what actions are allowed and what actions aren't: for example user can't edit the score of a mathc where s/he sisn't participate, but that's not visible enough.
- There's a lot of available screen real estate: homepage should have a 1 sentence desciption of what the site does.
Overall: Very good. Cool aesthetic touches (color scheme, logo)
