Hi,

I would like to report a bug about judge.wizards.com, I don't know if this is the correct place or if I should report this error somewhere else.
I use Internet Explorer 10 as my browser and can't seem to log in to judge.wizards.com. Entering the correct username and password returns me to the login page without an error message. Logging in works with both Google Chrome and Firefox.
Doens anyone know where I can report this error or is there anyone that can fix this problem?

kind regards,
Floris de Haan

I have gotten this same thing with Google Chrome.
I believe it has something to do with Cookies and the browsers cache, as if I enter Private Browsing (ignores history/cookies), I can enter it just fine.

judge.wizards.com isn't being actively maintained, so bug fixes are unlikely. I don't have IE 10 yet, but I do know that the site works better (if forced to use IE) using IE's compatibility mode. In the URL bar, there is a little icon that looks like a broken document. Click on that icon to enable compatibility mode.

If that doesn't work, you can try pressing F12 to open the IE developer tools window. At the top of that window is a marker “Browser Mode: XXX” that is changeable. You can experiment with the various different options there to see what works best in IE 10.

Hope this helps!

Every so often with Judge Center you get this redirecting thing. This is where basically you are put in a loop of judge.wizards.com and membership.wizards.com.

The only way I have found to fix this is to clear my cookies and my browsers cache.

:)

I get that all the time. In most browsers there's “Incognito” “Private Browsing” or other similar mode which will function just as well as clearing your cache/cookies/etc…

EDIT: Oh… I see someone's already posted that.

And a follow up question… why is it not being maintained? It seems like a pretty mission critical component of the Judge program.

Simple answer is that nobody owns the code for the site, and therefore can't modify most things about it (such as the year drop-down).

Is there a plan to move Judge Center into something maintainable?

Yes.  I don't have a timeline for this, but it is on (a very long) to-do list; we may not agree with the priorities assigned by those who work on that list, however.  :)

Is the plan to roll it into Judge Apps or is Wizards going to roll it into their web apps (like Planeswalker Points, etc.)?

That's a real key point. If it's going to be a community app, we can start recruiting volunteers.

If it's Wizards… Who do we start emailing/tweeting/facebooking? :)

I strongly suspect that if it was a community effort, recruiting would already have begun more than a year ago. Now, it's possible that work is already underway to add it here and only those involved are aware of it. After all, it's a rather sensitive set of data.

More likely, it is a Wizards effort, and the pressure you wish to exert is already being exerted by L5s whose clout far exceeds yours and mine.

That said, if the people who'd have to do this are those who have to fix the WER problems, I'll say this: We can wait on Judge Center. Writing “This is a 2012 review” at the top of our reviews is a small price to pay if it means WER development gets more attention.

When trying to be the squeaky wheel, sometimes it's quantity over quality, but I digress…

As far as WER vs Judge Center? WER first for sure.

I'd love to find out where we can submit feedback for both these apps.

The Judge Center has its own feedback section.

WER bugs found by judges can be provided to Nick Fang please.
