Leaderboards for #crucible channel

README

1. Users are pulled from the slack #crucible (default) channel. Slack::Channel.new
2. For each user we try and extract a gamertag from their Slack's ['profile']['title']
3. With the gamertag we can go to http://proxy.guardian.gg and get a membershipId (per platform).
4. With the membershipId we can finally get the elo ratings for the user.

• There is a rake task "slack.rake" which pulls the users from slack and gets the membershipIds and stores these things in the db. (Using sqlite for now).

• A different rake task "gg.rake" goes through all the users (db) and pulls their elos from guardian.gg.

NOTE: In order to test this stuff make sure you have a Slack API token, and supply it as an enviornmental variable called SLACK_API_TOKEN. E.g.

SLACK_API_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN rails s

As far as new stuff/ideas go:

Smaller stuff:

• Links to gg profiles
• Use guardian.gg font for logos to show in different game modes
• Slack avatars

Bigger things:

• Automate pulling new rankings
• Track rankings on weekly/reset basis, to make comparisions, trends (last week elo vs this week etc)
