Sorry, let me clarify - this is about the iPhone/Android app.
I agree with a lot of this. To me, it was a good start but since then it has been a disappointment watching no improvements being made.I bought the app a year ago. I don't like it. I want the ability to look up any two players, and see their entire match history. I know Fargo has this data, but they don't make it available to us.
Or maybe the ability to calculate a fargorate for only certain matches between players, or certain tournaments, etc.
The app itself is hard to use. Its not intuitive where you are in the app, or how to look things up. The favorites list doesn't make any sense. I have about 30 players in mine, and they are not in any order that makes sense. Not by order or rating, or when I added them, or first or last name, etc.
The app also has not been updated in 8 or 9 months, I just looked it up. It had some bug fix updates early on, and nothing since.
If I'm at my computer, I still prefer the fairmatch.fargorate site over the phone app.
I don't know what Fargo's end game is, but in 5 years since its been out, its only been a rating system. I feel like it could have been an instrumental part of pool. From matching up, to tournaments, to player statistics (like baseball junkies), to bookmaking, to even making money for the creators by driving traffic to their site. But its none of that, just some number on a website/app with no advertisements on it. I'm so confused why it didn't take off and explode.
The FargoRate app has been out for quite a while now.
What does it do well? Not so well? What would you change?
What features would you like to see added?
That's interesting - I've had quick responses when contacting them. Maybe try again on fargorate.com.Seeing other players' match histories would be at the top of my list.
Unfortunately for me, I've sent in two "corrections" requests to have some matches removed from my history and I've not seen any response. There's another person with a similar name to mine and their match history is counted in mine, which probably makes for a slightly skewed FargoRate for me.
That's great news if true.On a recent video, Mike Page said there's a new version coming out (first 30 sec.) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBbkg_5lEhs
It sounds like he says the update will have rating trends?
The only things the paid version do over the free version are 1) being able to see your own personal match history, i.e. a list of the games you have played, and 2) search by city.Does the paid version show how your FargoRate has changed over time? Because that’s the feature I’d most like to see.
