It creates posts for all of these, and for the live game scores pins to the community (if account is a mod) while the game is live. The side bar could be fun, but it would be hard to do as editing the side bar would wipe whatever was there beforehand, I'd have to look at how to scrape it. I'd also need to see if the sidebar supports tables and how they would look. Were you thinking standings/schedule on the sidebar?
Time and date for the next game is a great idea!
Oh okay, I misunderstood. So it's a bot for creating game day threads.
Yeah that's awesome. I'm not sure how difficult sidebar editing would be but some standings/schedule/stats stuff would be cool there. But you will be putting those in the posts anyways.
This api library is possibly the coolest library I've every used with its simplicity, so the answer is not too hard, as long as I can put a marker like "***" in there to split by so I can scrape the side bar that we'd want to keep. The stats/standings could make the side bar way too long (imo), but the schedule would be perfect for the side bar. I've opened an issue on the projects github for this with the idea of putting the current week's schedule up.
Actually in reference to standings, we could potentially put just the teams conference in there without making the sidebar several pages long as well. Probably just format it to run at the bottom of the sidebar as a schedule table then conference standings table.
