Bug Fixes - May 12

Post by mpowell »

Hey everyone,

We're back with another big round of bug fixes. Please let us know if you encounter problems with any of these. And thanks again for both alerting us to these issues, and for your patience as we fix them!

TCI sort excluding those without TCIs
If you had sorted ratings by your top TCIs, it was previously not including any users with whom you don't have a TCI. This wasn't correct behavior -- it should have been including everyone, and just sorting those without TCIs to the end.

Cannot submit new titles
We had some problems with new title submissions, which have now been fixed. It was related to memory errors on image upload/resizing, so wasn't happening to everyone.

Watch Date on Title Submission
When you submitted a title, we have always given you the opportunity to rate it, but not the chance to choose a "Watch Date". That's been corrected, and you can now supply your Watch Date at the time of submission.

Recent Ratings missing date
This information is now back on your User Profile page (as well as the profiles of other users)

My own best TCI
As someone pointed out, a TCI of "0.0000" for yourself is at least accurate. But it's also dumb. We've fixed the bit in the code that was allowing this, and cleaned up anyone for whom it had been happening.

Database Filtering Issue
There was a problem on filtering both on "Only with Reviews" and ordering by "Date Rated". This should be working again now.

Reconsider genre Virtual Reality
We had "Virtual Reality" as a genre for games, but it was pointed out that VR isn't really a "genre". That's correct, so in order to reconcile this, we've added a bunch of VR Platforms:
  • Meta Quest
    Meta Quest 2
    Meta Quest 3
    PlayStation VR
    PlayStation VR2
    Oculus Rift
    Oculus VR
    SteamVR
    Oculus Quest
Virtual Reality has also been removed as a genre, and all existing games which had belonged to that genre have been added to their proper platforms.

Noticed one thing: Ignored users are appearing in my Best TCIs page.

That's odd -- it seems fixed for us. Could you send a quick screenshot to support@criticker.com, and an example page where this is occurring for you?

Ignored users are contributing to a film's probable score again.

As another data point, you can unignore and then re-ignore the users again and they will stop being used for recaulculations of PSIs. At least for a short while. They show up again about a day later -- I guess maybe during the nightly PSI refreshes?

This one should now be fixed ... hopefully for good! Please let us know, though, if they continue to appear.
