DEVLOG — Start/Sit Weekly Lineup Challenge

v1 — Foundation build

Goal

Create a fantasy-sports decision game that’s:

  • simple
  • fast to play
  • easy to host
  • portfolio-ready

Key Decisions

  • Use static HTML/CSS/JS for frictionless Netlify deploy.
  • Use deterministic "Daily Mode" based on UTC date so everyone sees the same slate.
  • Use localStorage for streaks + best score persistence.

Scoring Model (Start/Sit)

  • Each player has a projection (proj), floor, and ceiling.
  • "Optimal" pick per matchup is the higher projection.
  • Win condition: >= 3 correct picks out of 4.

QA Notes (what to test)

  • Cannot score without 4 picks
  • Picks lock after scoring
  • Daily mode changes by date (UTC)
  • Streak increments on win, resets on loss
  • Best score updates only when beaten

v2 — MVP Upgrade (Lineup Mode + Leaderboards)

What Shipped

  • Mode toggle: Start/Sit ↔ Lineup Builder
  • Lineup slots: QB / RB / RB / WR / WR / TE / FLEX
  • Standard scoring simulation using floor/proj/ceil ranges
  • Explainable “AI Coach” notes (rule-based)
  • Dual leaderboards (Start/Sit + Lineup), localStorage-backed

QA Notes (what to test)

  • Lineup slots enforce allowed positions (FLEX = RB/WR/TE)
  • Player uniqueness: same player cannot be selected in two slots
  • Lineup cannot be scored until all slots are filled
  • Leaderboard:
    • Keeps top 10
    • Sorted descending
    • Separate boards per mode

Next Upgrades (backlog)

  • Share results (copy-to-clipboard “results card”)
  • Bigger player pool + realistic weekly slate generation
  • Difficulty settings (injury/weather flags, volatility mode)
  • Real leaderboard (backend API + DB)
  • QA Automation: Playwright smoke/regression + GitHub Actions CI
  • Backend-ready Coach API contract (e.g., /api/recommendations)
