I would appreciate it if some of you could test a new feature on the website for me. We added the ability to include a Play! Point eligibilty requirement on the tournament listing on Pokemon.com. The URL of the US Nationals tournament listing is

https://www.pokemon.com/us/account/play-pokemon-tournaments/12-07-000013/

The Play! Point Requirement message appears prominently at the top right of the listing and has 4 possible versions of the message:
When logged out it should tell you to log in
When logged in, but not opted in to Play! Pokemon Programs it should direct you to where you can change your preferences.
When logged and opted in with 10 or more Play! Points it should tell you your point total and that you are eligible for this tournament.
When logged and opted in with less than 10 Play! Points it should tell you your point total and how many more point you need to become eligible.

Thank you for testing the functionality of the feature described above. I will be monitoring this thread for comments pertaining to this issue and cheerfully ignoring everything else.

When you use the notification thing to log in, it sends you to your My Profile page instead of back to the tournament listing. Other than that, it works correctly for me.
 
It says I have 31 and I'm eligible where can I find the Canadian nationals link? ( although I don't think it matters)
 
Works perfectly for me! I logged in, and then clicked the link. It shows my number of points, and says I'm ineligible. I know I'll be one of the few, as I'm gonna end the season with 8 Play points. That will certainly help with folks who do wonder if they can play or not!
 
yep, send me to my profile page and from there it is not very fun to try and find your way back to where it would say if you are eligible... which apparently I am, which is news to me !
 
Sadly, I am not eligible for this event.

I only have 9 points this season. :(

Guess I will just Judge this year... lol.

Works perfect as described above...
 
UK Nationals https://www.pokemon.com/us/account/play-pokemon-tournaments/12-06-000001/

Which has a PP requirement for Seniors and Masters and not juniors. The site copes with this too :)

==missing some points?==

The last rating run was June 1st so any PPs accumulated since then have yet to be included in rankings or your My Points or My Stats season total.

They are included by the event eligibility checker which is using this data.. I'm sure the other parts of site will catch up once the next ranking run has completed.

You're gonna be doing that judging thing too? Who does that kinda stuff anyway? :lol:
 
Works for me. I have exactly 10 points! Not that I'll be attending though.
 
Display works for me Pete. What if you helped volunteer at events though? From what I understood, that was going to be factored somehow into your eligibility. (I for example only played 1 States but helped staff 1 other plus a Regionals, and right now it says I can't participate due to only having 3 actual Play! Points.)
 
When I look on Ratings and Rankings Search, it says I have 90.

When I look at My Play! Pokemon at
https://www.pokemon.com/us/account/my-op
it says I have 90 for Season, and 92 for Lifetime.

When I look at User Play! Points History at
https://www.pokemon.com/us/account/my-playpoints
it says I have 92 for Season, 158 for Lifetime.

When I click on your link at
https://www.pokemon.com/us/account/play-pokemon-tournaments/12-07-000013
it says I have 92 and am eligible.

I noticed this when I was testing and have reported it to the web developers. As far as I can tell, the Play Points history screen is calculatiing the points correctly and the Play Point Requirement box on the Nationals tournament listing is using the same data. This should mean that the problem with My Play Pokemon tab is just a display issue which shouldn't be difficult to fix.
