    Changes to penalty notifications

    There are some fundamental problems with the way penalities are notified at the moment:

    • They are sent to the email address of the team captain - but some of those email addresses aren't set up correctly
    • Some team captains have opted out of receiving these emails in their preferences so they're not seeing them
    • There's no backup - if either of the above are true then no-one gets the warning. They just see a penalty show up and they miss the chance to do something about it once it's too late
    • The same email is repeatedly being sent despite the system attempting to not do that. There's a bug there somewhere.

    In the next day or so, I'll be rolling out a version that puts all of the penalty information for the teams in a club together and sends it as a club summary to all the club admins. That will mean:

    • All club admins get to see the penalities and warnings of future penalties for all their teams and someone should be able to do something about it from that club if it can be dealt with before the penality as given.
    • Club admins from previous seasons will also get these messages so we need to work through them and de-admin them if that's not their role any more.
    • I can add the one point penalty for team contact details not being complete.
    • I can fix the multiple message problem.

    Any questions, please shout.
