Welcome back!

It's been a long and busy wait, but it's just about to be over.

Black Friday 2021 2021-11-21

We have been silent for a long time, and we have to wait a little longer for the most important news.

Meanwhile, it's Black Friday week!
Once again, and assuming you still have some spare change after all that shoe-shopping, of course, everything on sale on rankade is available with an additional discount (up to 60% off their full price for Plus groups, and up to 75% off their full price for Supporter users) - on everything from new upgrades (which you can enable from here), to renewals, to extensions to what you already bought (which you can enable from here).

Thanks again to all who support and keep supporting us, thanks to all who're starting today, and see you soon with our next releases.

New year, new rankings! 2021-01-01

Yearly rankings are the aggregated standings from subsets of matches within the group, including all matches played during a calendar year.

Now is the time to draw up a balance of the year that just ended!
The 2020 subset (and the subsets for all previous years, if any) will be built and processed for all Plus groups in a few days, as soon as a sizable number of match is recorded in 2021. And the 2021 subset will be built at the same time, together with 2021 Q1 - 1st Quarter and 2021 M01 January subsets!

Of course, each subset has its own ranking, graph, and stats (check 'Games and subsets' widget for available subsets).

Therefore, we suggest you keep recording your matches in your original group, so that you can keep collecting statistical data, enjoying your new year ranking without losing the global ranking (with all-time stats, belts, badges, activites). All rankings (global, yearly, quarterly, monthly, and custom) will be updated after every match. You can easily switch rankings in all widgets.

Happy new year, and happy gaming!

Monthly report and Black Friday 2020! 2020-11-24

Now the Stats and facts Report category offers you the highlights for last month!

Full monthly report is available only for Plus groups, along with all other Stats and facts features, with all stat categories and types, and unlimited queries; however, this new feature is partially enabled in Standard groups, too. Besides the auto-activation on your first login of the month, you can easily access the monthly report any time.

And what else?
It's Black Friday week!
Once again, despite the coronavirus and only until the end of November, everything on sale on rankade is available with an additional discount (up to 60% off their full price for Plus groups, and up to 75% off their full price for Supporter users) - on everything from new upgrades (which you can enable from here), to renewals, to extensions to what you already bought (which you can enable from here).

Help us to keep working on rankade, and happy gaming!

New major features 2020-08-31

Welcome back.

Times are still hard, we are still here.
Along with a slew of minor bits, our new release brings two new major features.

  • Now a group's admins can access the Group management center, a modal window that puts together and simplifies all group administration tasks (inserting matches, managing members, customization, etc.), and guides the admin along the way if they're creating a new group.
  • By popular demand, along with our usual email invite, now you can invite new users in a group with an alphanumeric code. Through the Group management center, an admin can enable this feature and access the code that they'll hand out to all players, who will use it to enter the group. Easy, fast, and clean.

Happy gaming!

Coronavirus 2020-03-25

Welcome.

So, there's this coronavirus thing. We can see from our system, too (as if we needed more proof...). All over the world, the number of matches for some types of games and sports, such as Table Tennis and Foosball, has dropped close to zero, understandably. Esports, video games and home boardgame groups have only slightly lower declines, and in general we are at an all-time low of activity on rankade.

Besides the data on webapp usage, we see all around us how world is different.
Our headquarter is located in one of the most hard-hit areas on the planet in terms of victim count, infection spread and restrictions on normal activities, with all that follows.
In short, we have seen better times.

Although we are working in very unusual conditions, since even the most basic activities are on hold, all webapp features are active, and we will do all we can to keep them so.

You probably have a thousand important and urgent things to deal with, which require your utmost care and attention. The list is very long these days. Should you, almost as an afterthought, have the time and resources to lend us a hand, to give us a small signal, besides the upgrade to Plus there is always the option - very light on your budget, about $1 a month - to become a Supporter. A small contribution that would work wonders for us, in every sense, in these complicated times.
Rankade wants to thank you for your support, and to help you with coronavirus lockdown, so all users who become Supporters in this period will have a free two-month extension; our plan, though, is to get back on track as soon as possible and take back the time, space and matches that the virus is stealing from us.

Above all, even if you cannot go to the office and challenge colleagues at Table Tennis as you did every day, even if you cannot be at your usual gaming night, even if your weekly appointment at the gym or club is suspended, even if your movements are limited, even if you're locked down at home, even if your regular gaming mates are unavailable, keep playing.
It is good for you.
And it is important.
Keep playing. Maybe changing habits, maybe changing the type of games, maybe changing gaming mates and opponents, maybe playing mostly with your family, maybe playing with those with whom you share your lockdown or quarantine quarters, maybe playing at a distance, over the Internet, over a video call, maybe changing everything, maybe inventing something new.
Keep playing.
Keep. Playing.
Rankade is and will be at your side. We look forward to your new matches, your new groups. And one day, when possible, we hope to see you play again like before, and more than before, even with those matches and in those groups that, for now, you've had to put on stand-by.
And we will still be there.

Despite coronavirus, despite everything, happy gaming!

New dōjō and API call 2020-02-28

Starting from today, rankade public APIs include a newly released call, allowing groups to retrieve match list and details (for Main or selected subset), and quota limits are enhanced both for Plus and Standard groups.

In addition, the dōjō is now larger and more crowded.

Happy gaming!
