wingman for competitors #17

Open patriciali opened 9 years ago

based on a user's login, we can determine whether to expose the judging interface. if it's just a competitor, we can provide:

  1. a good way to look at live results
  2. notifications to call them up

@jfly @jbcm627 @FatBoyXPC ideas and comments very welcome

I really like this. I thought that Wingman was going to only be for staff related stuff. Android and iOS both have an API for push notifications, and calling competitors up via push notifications is something I've envisioned for awhile.

As for 1., it could go a long way towards lifting this weight off of CCM's shoulders: https://github.com/cubing/ccm/issues/159. Would you envision live results viewing in the app being all realtime and shit? :wink: :wink:

Cool.

Another idea is personalized schedules like is done for nats (and assigned heats, etc).

I did too, but Jeremy pointed out that everybody is going to need a CCM account anyway (to register for the competition), and I think it's convenient to use that to decide whether to expose the judging interface or not.

Oh, I didn't mean to come off like I'm opposed to this. I was actually all for this, and in prior discussion with Jeremy I was hoping Wingman could be for more than just judging!
