How often are the standings on the web updated?
 
Does anybody know how often the web-based standings (e.g. Web-based Standings) updated?

It looks like it's twice a day. Just looking for confirmation.

Wow. How do I access that for my league?

Main -> Achievements & Trophies

Click on the year to open the web standing page on your browser

I like this feature (found it a couple of weeks ago when I was trying to investigate another person's roster). IMHO this feature would be improved 1000% if you could click on the team links and get a roster listing with current stats. If you click a team name now it goes to the manager's online profile page.

Agreed. I want to see how these teams are succeeding.

How do I check this at work? Don't have access to Steam here. I'm in Silver 287.

Sadly I have more time to waste at work than at home!

Open the report when you are at home, and make note of the URL. Then you can access it from anywhere. There doesn't appear to be an easy way to replicate the URL with smart logic, but maybe someone else knows how to decode it.

@Argonaut:
https://pt20reports.cachefly.net/sea...gue_stats.html

The url contains out of these parts:
- https://pt20reports.cachefly.net/season_
- Season Number (current: 4)
- /
- League Id (Look at your save game folder to find that)
- /pt_league_stats.html

Wouldn't it be better to make the league id for the URL the league name, i.e. "s287"?

Orcin:

It appears to me that the mysterious part of the URL is a GUID, which is an id you can generate with a reasonable certainty that it's unique. I speculate this is because they want to generate a unique URLs for each league (incidentally, this is the programmer's way to generate a unique ID).

If they used the league name in the URL then if there was a Silver 287 in season 3 and a Silver 287 in Season 4 they would both have the same URLs. But by using a GUID in the URL, the URLs for the two leagues are different.

That implies that past season stats might be available..

P.S., On further reflection, they could have generated a unique URL for each team by encoding both the product year and the season alongside the league name.. something like "ootp20_4_s287" - that would have kept the URLs unique but would have been a pattern people could guess. Ideas like this often come up after a feature is implemented a certain way. :D

Unless I missed it, no one answered this question (though some other info was useful). So does anyone know?

The season number is already there.

So it is.

Does any one know if there more pages besides pt_league_stats.html?
