didtheywinornot.com Single Purpose Scores Site

I built didtheywinornot.com this week in my spare hours before work. Currently it only does baseball scores, but as new seasons start in the fall, I think I'll expand it to other sports. Would love some feedback and any ideas as to how to make it better, keeping in mind that this is meant to be single purpose and not at all bloated. Did I miss a stat that people really care about? Is the amount of information good enough?

In plain words

Didtheywinornot.com is a minimal sports scores site that shows whether teams won or lost their games. It currently covers baseball and is designed to be simple and focused rather than feature-heavy. The creator built it in spare time and plans to expand to other sports as their seasons begin, seeking user feedback on whether the information provided is sufficient and what statistics matter most to sports fans.

  • An 8-bit live gamecast for baseballJun 2026 · ribbie.tv · ▲260

    Hey HN, I built a website to watch live baseball games in an 8-bit broadcast. It takes live MLB data streams and converts them into near real-time pixel art gamecasts. Been waiting to share this for when there’s actually a good slate of games happening since the site is pretty bare otherwise. Here is today's schedule: Mets @ Reds - 9:40am PDT https://ribbie.tv/watch/game/824503 Royals @ Nationals - 10:05am PDT https://ribbie.tv/watch/game/822721 Marlins @ Phillies - 10:05am PDT https://ribbie.tv/watch/game/823450…

    Talking to your customers made easy.▲24

    Dear Hackers and founders, I am working on a startup which aims to make customer development easier, faster and perhaps lazier. We all know how important it is to talk to customers, GainGeek (http://gaingeek.com) makes this process easier. My hope is that this app will resonate with all those following Eric Ries's Lean startup and Steve Blank's customer development strategy. I thought it would be a great idea to submit my idea to the eyes of the most critical crowd I know. Please let me know what you think. Cheers, Edo. PS: Some will note that this app could be intrusive. My bet is that the…

    HN Recap - Daily, ranked list of articles that hit the front page▲10

    Hey guys, I just flicked the switch on http://hnrecap.com and thought I would make a tiny announcement! The site was created for a simple reason: There is a big rotation of articles on the front page of Hacker News every day, and unless you are on here 24/7, you are bound to miss some great content and discussions. I was tired of this and the rss feed doesn't cut it for me since it doesn't preserve ranking information over time. On HN Recap, rankings are somewhat preserved: Every 2 minutes, I request the HN front page, update articles and attribute points in the following simple fashion: #1…

    My notes from the Web 2.0 Expo▲8

    http://web2expo.heroku.com/ I had the opportunity to attend the Web 2.0 Expo earlier this week. While at the event, I was inspired to build out a prototype for a problem I saw with the Twitter stream. The problem is that hash tags are fleeting; Twitter focuses on live results, and we lose track of tweets over time. This was especially true during the Lean Startup Intensive. #leanstartup was great when it was live on Monday, with the results consisting of live tweets of each presenter. However, if we search for the hash tag now, we get a mess of content not specifically tied to that event.…
