A Telegram bot and analytics suite by Slickfive that has kept the books for a
weekly home game since 2012 — results ranked the moment the last chip is counted, season
totals on demand, and thirteen seasons of trends and statistics in everyone's pocket.
Python · asyncTelegram Bot APIMongoDBPandas · Plotly13 seasons of data
Every settle-up since 2012 lives in MongoDB. One command in the group chat
and the night is ranked, the season updated and the ledger closed — no
spreadsheets at the table, no "I'll sort it next week".
/latest — the night's final standings, ranked by profit, seconds after the last chip is counted.
/totals — the season's running table: who's up, who's chasing, who's having a year to forget.
Clean data — player names normalised and duplicate inserts rejected, so thirteen seasons of history stay honest.
