Rap Battle System -=RBS=-

Ladys and Gentlemen, i give you, The Rap Battle System -=RBS=-


Many people have been requesting this so here it is. Took along time so im hoping it becomes a popular hack :nervous:



Features

Hmmm there are a few. Select the forum which the battle hack works in via the admin cp
Can edit a users win/loss record via the admincp aswell.

When someone wins a battle it automatically adds it to their win count and the opposite if they lose

The thread does not auto close because in my many years of experience people like to post/argue on after a battle is won or lost.

Erm oh and you submit your favourite line from the battle and it will get added to a database, then lines are randomly shown on the forum homepage.

Check the installation.txt for the full list, Also there is loads more features to come. Hopefully some people will release some addons maybe

Screenshot time wohoo

Oh yeah, the install button is your friend

Theres only been one release so far right?

[aranthorn]

I had this installed, but had to take it out. It would close any poll after a user voted. Strange...

Same thing on my site.... They really liked it too...

You need to run ALL the queries in the RBS file in the download. That should do it.

i am willing to help write features for this hack....

[Romeos Tune]

Is there one of these somewhere that you can pay for?

[kisersose]

i was looking forward to this too... to bad I didn't seen all these bugs until after I've installed it.

to bad, could be a dope hack if you can fix the minor bugs

[???`S?LV?R???`]

Yeah, that's what I heard about this hack too... that's basically what's been keeping me from installing it.

This is too cool. I didnt even know I needed this until I saw it.

[KingPooky]

First of all, I want to thank you for creating this hack. It's cool as hell, and best of all, easy to install.

For those of you who are having problems with normal, everyday polls being closed whenever someone votes, I believe I have found the solution.

Open POLL.PHP and find

PHP Code:

        //RBS
        $battlesys = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "battlesys_battles WHERE pollid = '".$pollinfo['pollid']."'");
        $votestowin = $battlesys['votestowin'];
        $splitoptions = explode("|||", $pollinfo['options']);
        $maxvotes = 0;
        $leastvotes = 0;
        foreach ($splitvotes as $number => $vote)
        {
            global $maxvotes;
            global $leastvotes;
            global $splitoptions;
            if ( $vote > $maxvotes ) {
                $maxvotes = $vote;
                $winner = $splitoptions[$number];
                global $winner;
            }
            if ( $vote < $leastvotes or $vote == 0 ) {
                $leastvotes = $vote;
                $loser = $splitoptions[$number];
                global $loser;
            }
        }
        if ( $maxvotes >= $votestowin )
        {
            $DB_site->query_first("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "poll SET active = '0' WHERE pollid = '".$pollinfo['pollid']."'"); //close poll
            //$winnerinfo = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE username = '".$winner."'");
            $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET bs_wins = bs_wins + 1 WHERE username = '".$winner."'");
            $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET bs_loses = bs_loses + 1 WHERE username = '".$loser."'");
            
        }
        //RBS 


And replace with

PHP Code:

        //RBS
        $battlesys = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "battlesys_battles WHERE pollid = '".$pollinfo['pollid']."'");
        if($battlesys)
        {
            $votestowin = $battlesys['votestowin'];
            $splitoptions = explode("|||", $pollinfo['options']);
            $maxvotes = 0;
            $leastvotes = 0;
            foreach ($splitvotes as $number => $vote)
            {
                global $maxvotes;
                global $leastvotes;
                global $splitoptions;
                if ( $vote > $maxvotes ) {
                    $maxvotes = $vote;
                    $winner = $splitoptions[$number];
                    global $winner;
                }
                if ( $vote < $leastvotes or $vote == 0 ) {
                    $leastvotes = $vote;
                    $loser = $splitoptions[$number];
                    global $loser;
                }
            }
            if ( $maxvotes >= $votestowin )
            {
                $DB_site->query_first("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "poll SET active = '0' WHERE pollid = '".$pollinfo['pollid']."'"); //close poll
                //$winnerinfo = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE username = '".$winner."'");
                $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET bs_wins = bs_wins + 1 WHERE username = '".$winner."'");
                $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET bs_loses = bs_loses + 1 WHERE username = '".$loser."'");
                
            }
        }    
        //RBS 


This should fix that problem. Enjoy!

I was going to install this until I saw all the bugs! Still, great job by the author for offering this for free. But hopefully someone can either update this hack or another author can use this to make another one with perhaps more features?
