Django PRODE

django-prode is a multiplayer sports forecast (aka. PRODE in Argentina) game for Django.

• Matches can be loaded from iCal (or manually), and associated with a tournament.
• The frontend page shows the user score table in real time.

Game Rules

• Players (users) are allowed to submit one forecast per not-yet-played match.
• Players gain points by guessing the score perfectly (2 points) or the overall result (team1 wins, team2 wins or tie - 1 point).
• On the end of the tournament the player with the most points is the winner.

Setup

• Add django_prode into your settings.INSTALLED_APPS (and uncomment the admin app if necessary)

• Sync the DB::

  ./manage.py syncdb

• Download a tournament calendar in iCal format and import it with the "loadical" admin command (the iCal file should be encoded in UTF-8)::

  ./manage.py loadical [-t ]

• Create staff users with at least add and change forecast permissions

• Add the score table into your URLconf::

  url(r'^$', include('django_prode.urls')),

Requirements

• Django 1.3
• django-tables
• python-icalendar

TODO

• Game rules are hardcoded in fixture.models.Forecast.score(); they should be customizable
• Dates and times (clients, server and matches) are presumed to be in UTC; time zones should be taken into account
• i18n and l10n
