Welcome to Alltid Hattrick!

Player History

HT-Weird_ed | 23.01.10

The player history is now fetched from hattrick directly. A couple of things related to this:

• Friendlies and cup matches are once again in the player history
• Weather events are missing from the last seasons
• League-links are broken for friendlies

Alliances have also been updated to work for season 41.

Player History data errors

HT-Weird_ed | 9.12.09

As many of you have reported, there are a lot of problems with the player history data. This has happened because of corruption in the databases due to a constant state of low disk space on the database servers.

I don’t think it’ll be possible to fix these problems in the alltid database, unfortunately. So next week I will try to switch the player history stats from using the Alltid DB to using the Hattrick DB directly. That should take care of the problems :)

Alltid In Hattrick - An Update!

HT-Weird_ed | 9.12.09

It’s been a while since we promised you that Alltid Stats would become a part of Hattrick. Since then things have been moving slowly, and you haven’t heard much from any of us about the status of the project.

Today I’m happy to say that at least some of you will be able to see the first small steps toward the new Hattrick StatsCenter as we’re releasing some code to Stage.

There hasn’t been much visible progress, but we’ve done a lot of things in the background. The most important are:

• Transferring 2TB of data from Alltids MySQL servers to Microsoft SQL. That’s a lot of data, and we’ve changed the entire database layout in the progress.
• Changed the MatchEngine to push stats directly to the new StatsCenter. In fact, it has been doing this for the last three seasons already.

And now we finally have the building blocks in place for generating the layout. It will progress a lot quicker from now on, and I hope you all will enjoy the new StatsCenter once we go live.

As I mentioned, it will appear on Stage first, and then we will slowly move parts of it over to Live, once we feel they work well enough.

The Alltid Bug Tracker is now closed, since the time is spent much better on creating the new Hattrick StatsCenter. The import problems we’ve had here the last season are really hard to fix, and they don’t affect the new stats in Hattrick. So they will be left as they are for now.

Alltid Valhalla Cup Finale

sitiawan | 22.05.09

It was a Tuesday night. It was raining. Under the shine of the fog lights, the finals of the Alltid Valhalla Cup had begun. Fortunate Bastards, two times losing finalist in the previous Alltid Plus Cups, look to set this one right after defeating Halifax Town in the semi-finals, the same side that beat them to the Plus Cup last time. Naoned Uber Alles, the single non-Dutch team in the semis, defied the odds and another all-Dutch final by defeating FC De Rompestompers confidently despite being tagged as underdogs. The French team had struggled to win their first round match but later picked themselves up and ran a good show all the way to the finals.

Zacharias van Rijt opened the scoring for Bastards with a goal from the left to the delight of the fans, who held their breath long enough to watch him break past the defenders running awkwardly in the mud. 1-0 for Fortunate Bastards. Anti Pulver added a second goal for Bastards in the 40th minute before Jerome Bodaan put his side away with another one four minute after with a brilliant header. The goals just can’t stop coming in after the second half whistle as Zacharias van Rijt got himself a hattrick with two more goals in the 48 and 57 minutes, clearly impressive from a player who looked to have been suffering from the rain early into the match. At this moment, the crowd’s cheers were followed by singing and dancing and a few worked-up Naoned supporters were seen leaving the stadium. Gosse Kok completed the route for Bastards with a sixth goal in the 61st minute. An incredible performance, a 6-0 victory, and Fortunate Bastards emerge the winners of the Alltid Valhalla Cup, final edition of the Alltid Cup saga.

The Alltid Cups started as a humble 64-team Alltid Cup meant for non-supporters to win a Supportership, later evolving into a mammoth 2048-team Alltid World Cup in its fifth edition, along the way changing a total of four names. The Supporters Cup was first introduced in the second season as an elite version for Supporters of the Alltid community (later called Plus members), with Niflheims Vikinger the only team to have won both the non-supporter’s and supporter’s variant of the cup. Over the years, people flock in to play the cups, interacting with the warm community and enjoying Alltid’s trademark statistics. For some, playing in the non-supporter’s cup and trying to win a Supporter package was one thing they look up to every season. Gloom befalled the legacy of the Alltid Cups in September 2008 when news of Alltid’s integration into Hattrick was announced. It was joy and achievement nonetheless. After the hiatus of a season, the Valhalla Cup was created, a Viking burial in the name of Alltid. The spirit of Alltid may have weakened but it will never be gone.

While the coach of Naoned Uber Alles may have curse himself for trying a pressing tactic, or pretty much all the aspects he could have bettered, numerous others along the sidelines look up as the graffiti falls and picture themselves holding aloft the Valhalla Cup trophy. No more. No more. The name of the victors of the Alltid Cups will be engraved in wood and the final one is now in place – Fortunate Bastards.

The Alltid Cups, the one, the only. May Alltid Hattrick live forever!
