The following changes have been made to CFLdb Statistics since the last report:

  • Enhancement: Added tiebreaker results to main season standings pages (2000-forward).
  • Enhancement: Refactor schedule page; show separate schedule tabs for CFC (1956-1957) and CFL (1958-1960) until partially interlocking schedule in 1961 started schedule integration.
  • Enhancement: Added all honours in database to player detail pages.
  • Enhancement: Added Team Honours page, listing team members and honours received.
  • Enhancement: Completed refactoring standings pages to use tabs for displaying division and other standings listings.
  • Enhancement: Show player links for players participating in 1980 through 1987 seasons.
  • Bug: Fixed tiebreaker text when single division.
  • Bug: Show Top Performer rank on Week pages.

Roadmap

The next priority is the continued refactoring of pages.

Known Issue

I have discovered an issue with the tiebreaker priority text. It appears to only affect the display, incorrectly showing the increment of the tie breaker priority after a team is eliminated from a tied group. I do not believe it is impacting the result of the tiebreaker. I plan on investigating the issue in July, and hope to have it corrected by the next update.

Missed You?

If I missed your contribution this or any other month, please send a gentle reminder so I may correct the record. And apologies for the unintended slight.
