You remember the old days? 2006 ... APEX aka HTMLDB was still the new kid on the block!
To promote APEX at that time I build an Oracle APEX app that allowed you to see the scores of the World Cup 2006. After some feedback I created a betting piece to it... it gained much traction, it even got translated in Chinese! Here's a picture of that time:
Since then every year with the World Cup and Euro Cup I enable the app again. This year is not different... well it is; the app got an overhaul with some great new functionalities. I'll go deeper in some features in another blog post; but the main features are: authentication via Facebook (thanks to Peter) and you are able to create your own groups of people. So APEX R&D can see for example how it plays against our Canadian friends at Clarifit or our US friends at Enkitec :)
You find the new app at https://wc2014challenge.com
Let us know if you like it (or not) :)
A great sample to show what you can do with APEX. Well done!

Thanks for letting us know. We'll investigate asap
ReplyDelete@Benjamin; It looks like this bug appears when the internet connection is slow and you hit the Request to join twice. Is that possible?
ReplyDeleteHi Dimitri,
ReplyDeletei just tested again, Yes that is absolutely the root cause.
Thanks
