Hi guys,
I've written a TeamLiquid to Google Calendar converter and made it public so you can import it into your own Google Account.
This is how it works:
In your Google Calendar go to: Other Calendars -> Add -> Add by URL
And copy & paste the following URL:
+ Show Spoiler +http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/qd3c0vud9vp01cuuo6cdset59g%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics
This will add the TeamLiquid calendar to your Google account.
Now you can do things like, setup notifications or view it on your smartphone's calendar app.
This would not be possible without SonuvBob's and Hot_Bid's help. So props to them!

This is awesome! Thanks so much!
|
what an amazing thing... never miss another event because I cant translate time zones
|
This is incredible, Thanks!
|
Pretty amazing I might say. Thanks a lot and well done CreamCorn!
|
This is great. Thank you so much for your work!

CreamCorn, you sir, are the man.

This is great, I finally have another use for Google Calendar
|
nice, I had been putting some basic reminders in my calendar and now I can pick and choose without having to write anything up. Great job!
|
Thx. Added it immediately.
|
Really cool, thanks
|
Nice!
This is really useful, thanks!

Is there something inadequate with the web calendar that I'm missing? I guess if I used google calendar for everything this would be nice. Good work.

I was asked for this by a few people because they wanted Google Calendar integration. Web Calendar works great, in fact this would not be possible without it.
Just a few features you get by using the link I posted, over what the Web Calendar already provides:
- the link I posted is in the: ical format, this means you can now import the TL calendar into applications like Thunderbird, Evolution, Drupal, Apple's iCal..
- Google Calendar provides features like Email or Text Message notifications.
- Smartphones also have Google Calendar/iCal integration so you can have all the TL Calendar events right in your iPhone's or Android's calendar.

Hell, it's about time. Thx :D

I think there is something wrong with the time parsing or something, most events look ok, but "TG Sambo-Intel Global Starcraft II League Season 2 Opening Day" has the wrong time. The other GSL times look wrong also.
|
This is awesome! I love GCal and it's awesome that you added the TL calendar to it. The S2 GSL times do look off though.

I can confirm that the time is correct. Make sure you're viewing using the correct timezone.
If you don't already know, GomTV changed the schedules for season2: http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=116735748385458&id=140476575993726

Always wanted to do this myself. I'm glad someone else did it though.
Is it directly synced to the website calender or is there someone updating manually?

This is awesome. Thanks so much ^^

Does this actually sync to my timezone? Or do I have to convert it manually?

If you add it to your Google Calendar, it converts automatically.
|
Can't get the calendar to show up on my Android for some reason, weird. Have no problems with other calendars. Gonna try playing around with it again later.
|
|
I'm having a problem accessing the TL calendar on my Android phone and I can't figure out why.
For some reason the TL calendar (also GLHF calendar) doesn't appear on my phone, but other public calendar that I added seem to be fine (for example: this calendar).
In Google calendar it shows up fine:
But not displayed in the phone settings:
Anyone has a clue why? Is it because of some sharing/permission setting?
|
oh wow, there's a lot of stuff! very cool.
|
Thank you! this is so helpful!
|
Wow, thanks so much for setting this up. Took 2 seconds to setup in iCal and my phone. Well done.
|
awesome. good work. 
loving the constant improvements to tl
|
Wow, this is great, I added it, and I didn't even bother to look that the GSL 2 stuff wasn't all starting at 2am... yikes!
|
This is amazing. Thank you so much.
|
oh my fucking god i love you
tyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
|
This makes things a lot easier.
|
Awesome! Even works with the Lightning add-on for Thunderbird!
|
Nice !! Thank you.
|
Thanks!
Great work!
Keep it up!
|
This is so useful! Text messages on my phone to remind me to watch GSL!!
|
|
This is super cool dude. Thank you for posting this!
|
This is very cool! I appreciate it greatly!
|
With how things are progressing i wouldn't be surprised if StarCraft III is written by the Teamliquid community. Thanks to All involved.
|
This works perfectly syncing to my blackberry. Great job!
|
Nice! Thanks
|
The url doesnt work for me, that says the url doesnt exist.

I hope that keeps being automated with that way because I dontt see TL caldendar at "other calendars".
Is there some way to configure that so the past events are deleted automatically?
|
Put it into Thunderbird. This is so cool, thanks very much!
|
This is incredible! Just last week I was searching for a way to accomplish this. Thank you so much.
|
This is beautiful; thanks.

Am I the only one who couldn't get it to work on Android? Anyone else did it successfully?

By default your phone only updates your personal calendar. Open calendar and go to settings and hit calendars and you should have the option to display this one. If you don't see it listed you need to do a sync with your account.

Already did all that with no luck. Please read my original post: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=6598097

Sorry mate. I'm not sure if there's a way to maybe clear all calendar data and settings and let it re-sync?
|
Very well done, thank you!
|
Is there any way to make the scheduled event stretch for its entire duration? Atm, an event starts at 2pm but only lasts for 15 mins or so in the calender. Is it possible to make the event show for the whole run time? Take day 2 MLG DC for example, we know it goes on for about 11 hours but the allotted time in the calender is only 15 mins. I know a lot of events only have a start time but some actually have schedules and it would be sweet to be able to see in calender how long they stretch, especially since the "More details"-info does not take time zones into account..
Either way, I ain't knockin' the product, it's great and I truly appreciate it! Double thanks.
|
@Cuddle
Unfortunately the feed the script uses to convert events to Google calendar doesn't contain the event duration, so I have decided to use a default of 1 hour.
If the folks who run the TL calendar include the duration in the future I will make sure the duration gets converted to Google calendar as well.
|
Wow this is extremely awesome and useful. Thanks a ton.
|
|
|
Yes this is actually amazing thx for this!

works great in outlook 2010 also. Thanks a lot.

Yeah, I've also noticed multiple duplicate events. I suspect some kind of collision detection fail.
|
I am working on the fix for the duplicate entries. I am being careful in how I approach this issue because I don't want to just delete the duplicate events, because people may have notifications setup on them.
I should have a fix in place in the next few days.
|
Thanks, CreamCorn. Keep up the good work

Awesome - thanks so much for this!
|
Thank you so much for continuing to work on this! I got a little discouraged when I saw the duplicating, thinking that we were stuck with it since no one would want to put the extra work into it. Bravo, sir!
|
|
Nice!! And the timing is autoconverted to ur time region..
|
This is awesome. TL calendar on my blackberry! Sweet.
Seems to work easily (only took a few clicks literally to get it syncing on my phone) but I noticed that some events are getting repeated a bunch. Very very minor issue overall.
Thanks for this <3
|
I'm getting lots and lots of duplicated entries [Link]. I verified that I only subscribed to the Calendar once.
Does anyone have an idea what causes this?
|
I have no idea what it is, but I'd imagine that something is happening when the script is checking for any new events and isn't recognizing when it already has some of them. Maybe there was even some type of small change made by a TL admin that causes the script to think there is a new event?
I'm actually of the opinion that TL would be well served by just using a Google Calendar themselves. Really easy for them to edit and it makes it really easy for everyone to be on the same page. Timezone support is a huge thing, too (and something I find really, really important for the Starcraft scene).
|
|
cool! i'll put this on my homepage as well :D gj
|
I have applied the bug fix which resolves the duplicate entries issue for some events in the Google Calendar.
I will continue to monitor the calendar to make sure it's functioning properly.
|
You, Sir, are awesome. Thanks a lot for this.

Thanks! I see one future event that seems to have a double, but that's it. Most of the old ones were fixed except for some Day[9] stuff. In general, any old stuff with duplicates now has less duplicates except for the cluster on . . . last Tuesday I think?
Thanks for continuing your work!

I am hesitant to remove any duplicate entries in the future as people may have reminders/alerts setup on them and I don't want to interfere with that. As for the past events, those no longer matter 
When I initially wrote the script I had a feeling I could run into this issue, I wrote a very simple solution to deal with duplicates but it turns out it wasn't sufficient. I sort of decided to stick with the buggy simple solution until I got more familiar with the data and the problem at hand, instead of over-engineering a solution from the start.
Sorry if it caused any problems.
|
@CreamCorn
Oh, no, it's perfectly fine now! Only time will tell if there's some other bug hiding somewhere.
|
I think the time for GSL is wrong. It's an hour too early (at least for me @ BST).
|
It's just so handy!!!! ^.^ I must say, nice work!!
|
That's great. Thank you! :-)

|
Thanks for the great work here.. I have no problems and the date/time seems to be correct. And with the new chrome extension for google calendar (https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/gmbgaklkmjakoegficnlkhebmhkjfich) I have all the events just one click away :')
|
I've noticed that there are lots of events in the Teamliquid web page that are not in the Google Calendar. Does it means that it'll be discontinued?
There's an example:

Was just coming to post the same thing. Seems like new events are not being picked up.
Any chance of this getting fixed or does anyone know an alternative method of getting TL calendar into my Google/Android calendar?
|
oh was confusing google calendar with Igoogle, would be neat if you could have a TL tab in there aswell

I also am sad about this.
|
I'm also missing this feature. But it would be much nicer, if the TL calendar supported the ical format directly.
|
Somebody said that this Google calendar will no longer be updated with SC2 events, only with Brood War events. Is this true? When I check my phone (which has been synced with this calendar since the start), the last time I see an SC2 event posted is Dec. 11th.
|
Any chance about community keep updating this calendar. This was very important and usefull for me.
|
I've started using this calendar with Rainmeter, the only thing bugging me is that seems to be no way to change the displayed time from Korean to CET. But it's nice having the info on my desktop, instead of going to Google calendar
![[image loading]](http://i56.tinypic.com/2s7i2b7.jpg)
|
There was an issue with the Google calendar API.
It was returning errors when the script was attempting to add new events.
The issue has since resolved itself and the Google calendar appears up to date. I made no changes to the code of the script so I guess Google had issues 
|
Ok this will be a shameless plug but ; Have you guys tried ScCalendar? As the name suggests , it's a calendar application for Sc2 based on TL Calendar with stream player & rss reader etc. Our topic in Sc2 General , HERE Hope you like it!
|
This calendar seems to be no longer updating, am I correct in that? I am willing to create and maintain a .ics file, corresponding to the events calendar - it's something that a decent number of people seem to be looking for. However, if someone else is already working on it I don't want to double their effort (I have no coding ability so I'd be doing it by hand, though I'm fine with that. I also don't want to step on any toes). As I say, I am fully willing to create and maintain a .ics calendar file, to share with the community, but if someone else is doing this there's no point.
|
|
Wow, I was just trying to find something like this a couple days ago, thanks!
|
Wow, how did i never think of this. Thankyou CreamCorn, this is very useful!
|
I don't see IPL anywhere on here?
|
thanks, I was actually about to do this when I decided to make sure noone else had first. Saved me a lot of work.

Second this...it would be easiest if the calendar is open to all of the mods to update, then any of the mods can come in and put up events corresponding to real life.

I noticed this was in the SC2 forums...Hopefully if this project continues it would be for both of the pro-scenes.

Just started to use this and I wanted to say thanks a ton :D
|
|
Only showing one future event at the moment..
|
Is this Calendar still working I only see a few events on it .
|
Ya, same here Weird though that there still are a few events working. Anyone know how to fix the calendar?
|
CreamCorn possibly
Are there any other calendars for TL events?
|
