[CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity

[bitmover]

I am on vacations and I wont be able to post the animated chart now .

I will post it here next week  

So you are one of those that don't bring laptops on your holidays? Every year I say I won't bring mine because I barely touch it when I am at holiday, but then at the last minute I pack it anyway.

Anyway, enjoy your holiday.  

Funny, during holidays I have more time to post on the forum.
And posting on the forum actually relaxes my mind.
So yes, I am the kind of person that bring laptop (and other gadgetry) on holiday.
And if you look in the forum, you'll see a few pictures that testify to that.

Depends on the holliday.

If I have a small travel just to take a break and I will have plenty of free time, I do take my laptop.

This last trip was quite busy. Hikings, trains, bikes, many different hotels, etc. No way I could bring a laptop and would not have time to use it


But I am back now! Updated race:

Thank you OP for another monthly overview of the local boards.
One small suggestion is to tweak and change color for Spanish local board, it is almost identical with background color (at least on my screen).
More intense yellow color would be more visible.

Hm, it looks very different from the background on my screen. Does anyone else has the same issue?

But yeah, I guess I could make it more visible in the next overview.

Everything looks normal from my end. I'm using the default white BTT theme right now, and the color for Spanish is very bright yellow here. And for local board racing it's like close to a dark green shade.

but i must say, that bright yellow is absolutely blinding, it's (i don't know how to describe it) very bright and hurts if you look at it for a while..it's feels like when you look at a yellow bulb for a while and cannot see anything, that feeling.. (i'm bad with words, but i hope you understood the reference)

So dkbit98 says its not noticeable enough, then you say that its too bright, while for me it looks completely normal. What to make of that lol.

Btw, I am using default yellow in Google spreadsheets.

All screens are different, but I have warmer settings on my screen to reduce blue light emission and issues with my eyes.
You should just use yellow color from Spanish national flag, or any other color not used for other countries.

In that case, I would have to manually add the Spanish flag's yellow color (as google doesn't offer it as one to chose from) code,  which would only delay the publication of these overviews.

Anyway, I might give it a go, but problem is that that shade of yellow is similar to orange that I am using for Indian local. At least on my screen.

A long time ago, I was taught to avoid, during work presentations, more than 3 or 4 colours per graph.
You would be amazed by the number of people who have some form of colour blindness and can tell the difference between the inevitable shades of the same colour when you have more lines on the same graph.
Not saying this is the case, but actually resonates a lot.

Since I have to use 18 different colors/shades, I think some issues with visibility or similarities between certain colors are unavoidable.

The only alternative would be to use a single color for everything, but I don't think that would be an overall improvement.

Here you go:



You should use colour bling colours for the main boards, then use different brightness of the same colours for the smaller bars.
You can use the Okabe-Ito/Tol hues to keep the colours similar to the old ones.

Thnx for the effort, but I am not fan of that solution, I just don't like how it looks like.  

@dkbit98 you suggested to use yellow from spanish flag (Hex F1BF00, RBG 241, 191, 0) so this is how it looks like. Is it any better?
