Brew View

What's it do?

Brew View will act primarily as a way of recording and maintaining players' feats so that they can compare themselves with other players in the system. Users can be added with ease, as can tables, and games can be created smoothly (with customizable settings like score limit and whether a team must win by two). Once a game is created, the user will have the option of recording the game as it progresses or entering the outcome afterward. All games will be recorded and kept up-to-date by the app. Games can also be paused at any time and resumed later.

In it's first iteration, Brew View will only be able to maintain a database locally, but eventually we hope to move it to the cloud with authentication and synchronization.

Our app utilizes the camera functionality found on most Android phones to take a picture of a table, which is then associated with a name and saved to the database. Each game is associated with a table and the app will then keep track of players' best tables. The app keep track of the following statistics for each player:

• total wins & losses
• total catches
• total missed throws
• total points (including number of other point opportunities like tinks, sinks, and FIFA's)
• best, second-best, and worst teammate
• best table
• all games player participated in and their statuses

The application also keeps an up-to-date list of all games, indicating whether they are completed or not. Any incomplete game can be resumed from this list, and the most recent incomplete game can be resumed via the main activity.
