Smart search/matching system makes it easy to find Practice Partners and Team Members by finding suitable players based on your preferences.

Practice Partner and Team Member Finder Web Application
aka SC2PlayerFinder at: www.sc2pf.com

Current Features

To use the system, enter in your profile information (SC2 name, server, race, skill level, have mic, age group, comments...), search preferences and preferred playing times.
The system will then display a list of matches with highest scored matches displaying first.

But this might prove to be cleaner/easier to use.

Cool, I joined up, hopefully this will become popular so players of all skill levels can become good.

You know the difference between "application" and "thread" right?

I should have that working by the end of the day. Along with an option to not display your email address.

I signed up and really hope it takes off. I feel I've developed my skills as far as possible from ladder play alone so far and really need consistent practice partners to take myself to the next level. Being new to the SC community has made it difficult to find partners of equal skill level as most seem to involved with teams and/or have networks of their own friends/clanmates to rely on. Hopefully others in the same position as me sign up.

I'm also hoping this takes off. I'm pretty awful and it would be pretty cool if I could become not awful.

So, this is awesome, and I'm bumping this solely for the sake of getting it out there so more people will use it when the beta comes back.

Very nice, but UI needs work

Yeah, the UI is an afterthought at this point. I'll be making improvements on it soon.

New Version.

Didn't have time to finish account creation code for Non-Gmail users, but I should be able to finish it up tomorrow.

To avoid email address farming, the match list no longer displays the email address of the matched players. Replaced the email address with a link to a form that will send a message to the matched player.

V1.0b4
- Email address no longer displayed. Contact users via a form.
- Match list no longer displays users with incomplete profiles (blank SC2 Name and Comments and Time Slots) .

i really like this idea... is pretty handy. especially if they dont bring chat rooms to bnet 2.0 haha.

... if you want a nice design for the UI let me know.. i wouldnt mind doing something as beta down time is killing me. (im a creative director at a marketing company.. something simple would make this thing hit the big time!!!!)

any way. good idea. and i just used it.. works nicely if more people used it.

EDIT: only 1 result came back.. haha hence the more people. Also you may want to have a tick box for microphone users...

[ ] I have a headset and will use it in game

I would like to see this become more popular...
I know there's a thread on teamliquid, but it is easier to do it like that...
If someone in silver to gold range on eu servers needs a practice partner, contact me

Keep up the good work man!

Ahh yes the mic. I was going to add this, but totally forgot. Thanks for the reminder.

Regarding the UI, I would love to improve the design. Do you know JQuery and JSON by any chance? I'll be making small changes to the UI as I continue to add and improve features, but once I get the majority of features working, then I want to do a complete overhaul of the UI and convert it from JSP to JQuery/JSON.

It's not working for me. After I regester, it's giving me some kind of app error.\

Sounds like a great idea though, can't wait for it to start working again so I can use it!

Thanks for letting me know. I'll see if I can figure out what is wrong.

Let me finish up some work on the inner guts of the app and when I'm ready for a UI overhaul, I'll see if you are still interested. I'm a middle/back end coder and my front end UI skills are lacking as you can see :-)

Thanks for the offer.
