🎖️InHouseQueue Seasons
The Seasons feature in the In-House Queue Bot allows server admins to manage competitive seasons within their Discord server. This feature is designed to help organize and track in-house games over a set period, providing a structured way to compete and track player progress.
Key Features
Season Management: Start, extend, shorten, and end seasons.
Flexible Scope: Run a season across your server's Global leaderboard, or scope it to a single unique-leaderboard queue channel - each has its own independent season, so you can run several at once.
Leaderboard: Track the top players throughout the season.
Automated Notifications: Notify players when a season is about to end.
Detailed Stats: View season stats including start date, end date, games played, and unique players.
By default a season tracks your server's global leaderboard. If you'd like to run a season for just one queue - separate from casual/relaxed games elsewhere in the server - give that queue a unique leaderboard first, then scope the season to that channel when you start it. A Global season and a unique-queue season (or several unique-queue seasons, one per channel) can all run side by side - you just can't start two overlapping seasons for the exact same scope.
How to setup Seasons
Starting a Season: An admin uses
/season start, which opens an interactive setup wizard - no need to fill in every parameter up front.Game - select which game this season is for.
Scope - choose Global to track the server's whole leaderboard for that game, or Pick a Queue Channel to scope the season to one specific unique-leaderboard queue instead.
Updates Channel - select the channel season announcements and reminders should be posted in.
Role (optional) - pick a role to ping for those announcements, or skip.
Season Name & Duration - a short popup form to (optionally) name the season and set its duration in days (1-90).
Reset Stats? - choose how to handle stats for the new season. Choosing Soft reset or Full reset will also reset wins, losses, and MVP votes for that scope:
No reset - MMR stays as it is.
Soft reset - MMR moves halfway back toward the starting value (games played resets to 0). Strong players keep some edge, but have to earn it back.
Full reset - MMR and games played go back to the starting value completely, as if everyone were new players.
We recommend at least a Soft reset for a clean competitive season.
Confirm - review a summary of everything you've chosen before the season actually starts.
Once confirmed, InHouseQueue will show you a short summary of the season that just started.
InHouseQueue will also send a message to your designated Seasons Announcements channel marking the start of the season for all players.
One day before the season ends, InHouseQueue will send a reminder!
Once the season reaches its end date, or you end it early, the Final standings will be sent into the Seasons Announcements channel, and all stats within that season's scope are automatically reset (Wins, Losses, MVP votes).
MMR is not reset when a season ends - only if you chose to reset it back when the season started.
Managing the Season
Throughout the season, the admin can extend or shorten the season using /season extend or /season shorten. Both take an optional queue_channel parameter - leave it blank to manage the Global season, or pick a unique queue channel to manage that queue's own season instead.
Ending the Season
When the season needs to be ended early, the admin uses /season end to conclude the season. Like /season extend//season shorten, this takes an optional queue_channel parameter to target a specific unique queue's season instead of the Global one.
Viewing Stats
Admins can view detailed stats about the season, including the top players, by using /season stats. The stats embed now also shows which Scope (Global, or a specific queue channel) those stats belong to.
