Updated build: Modular point descriptions extended to tiebreaks(you have to have already gone to deuce earlier in the match to see it, because I didn’t want to delete perfectly good code until I knew stuff was working) Added descriptions for different exes so Clark and Ezekiel no longer look the same. Added default races and aliases depending on choice of last name(you can still be a Caucasian Uehara or an Asian Okoye, but are no longer defaulted to being Dwayne/Rachel Sheffield from National Geographic. Still Dwayne/Rachel, but you can now default to Dwayne Shimizu or Rachel Fazari!
Messed around a bit with Microsoft’s AI image generator for a title image.(I liked the old one with a spade and tennis ball, but since I haven’t added any card games to this project the spade just seemed odd.)
To do:
- Doubles tiebreaks, doubles tiebreaks, doubles tiebreaks.
- Implementation of interactivity within deuces. I’ve mostly settled on a method, just have to code it. Will explain it in more detail once it’s implemented. So probably in March.
- Finishing the summit. I swear I’m almost done, just got a tad distracted the last week or so (the Australian Open probably has something to do with that.)
- Additional content for the Skopje reception(need to specifically add stuff for the low-level diplomatic staffers and Seamus O’Callahan the Shepherd’s Pie King of the Balkans)
- Doubles tiebreaks
Meet a Co-op Operative
Name: Malika/Khalid Salehi
Similar profile to yours, standout college player at good, but not great tennis program. Mediocre professional. Language skills in a number of Middle Eastern languages, mostly expertise in various dialects of Arabic.
Career high ranking (Singles): 117(Should consider revising that ranking closer to or inside of 100, any win in a major is likely to put a player into the top 100)
Career high ranking (Doubles): 86
Career wins in majors(singles): 2*
Top skills(Tennis): Backhand(top 50), spins.
Top skills(Espionage): Martial, charisma.
- Operative Salehi defeated the top American seed at the Grand American(#14 overall).
Quote about Salehi: “Salehi doesn’t just win arguments, we’re talking about winning relationships. You know how preposterously unrealistic it is when an agent infiltrates some organization and by the end of it he’s somehow become engaged to the boss’ daughter? That stuff actually happens to Salehi! There is still a head of a mafia family in Vladivostok that thinks Malika/Khalid is going to be marry his kid.”
While the Ukrainian war has somewhat faded from the headlines amidst the situation in Gaza the Ukrainian women at the Australian Open are still doing their best to remind everybody of their plight. If you have a minute look up what #33 in the world Lesia Tsurenko had to say about real happiness after losing 6-0, 6-0 to Aryna Sabalenka or what Marta Kostyuk said after making her third round win against a Russian player.

As ever thanks for reading. I’m back to testing the match engine some more.
