Poker League of Mediocre Gentlemen

How to update this site

You do not need a database. Edit one file, drop photos in a folder, refresh.

After each game — points

1. Open data.js in any text editor (Notepad, VS Code, TextEdit).
2. Find seasons["2"].standings.
3. Change the points number. Keep ties marked with a T in rank (example: "T12").
4. If someone new scores, copy a row, give them a unique id, and delete them from field if they were listed there.
5. Update meta.lastUpdated to today’s date.
6. Save the file and refresh the site. If it is hosted, upload the new data.js.

{
  id: "ryan-m",
  rank: "5",
  name: "Ryan M",
  points: 27
}

Next game / calendar

1. Edit the schedule array in data.js.
2. Use YYYY-MM-DD for dates. The site always highlights the soonest night that is today or later.
3. Fill location, address, host, time, and notes.
4. If a night dies, set status: "cancelled" instead of deleting it.

{
  id: "s2-sep-26",
  title: "Season II · Saturday night",
  date: "2026-09-26",
  time: "7:00 PM",
  location: "Mike's house",
  address: "123 Felt St, League City, TX",
  host: "Mike",
  notes: "Park on the street. Door code in the group text."
}

History — after the last chip is stacked

1. Copy the night from schedule into history (or write a new block).
2. Add finishes with place and optional points.
3. Set winnerId / winnerName to whoever took first.
4. Remove that date from schedule so it leaves the upcoming list.

{
  id: "s2-sep-26",
  season: "2",
  title: "Saturday night at Mike's",
  date: "2026-09-26",
  location: "Mike's house",
  host: "Mike",
  winnerId: "justin",
  winnerName: "Justin",
  finishes: [
    { id: "justin", name: "Justin", place: 1, points: 10 },
    { id: "david", name: "David", place: 2, points: 7 }
  ]
}

Headshots

1. Name the file after the player’s id.
2. Put it in the photos folder.
3. Accepted names: photos/david.jpg, photos/ryan-m.png, photos/sara.webp.
4. Use a square crop if you can. Faces work best filling most of the frame.
5. Until a photo exists, the site shows initials on a felt-colored chip.

Putting it on the internet

1. Easiest: drag the whole plomg-website folder onto Netlify Drop. You get a public URL in about a minute.
2. Or create a GitHub repository and turn on GitHub Pages from the folder.
3. Or attach the folder to any cheap host that serves static files.

There is no login and no server. Whoever has the files can publish an update. Keep a copy of the folder so you do not overwrite photos.
