InHouse Sessions

InHouse Sessions

InHouse Sessions is a tool for private Direct Strike groups that want to run balanced games, collect replay results, and review a session afterward.

The active session workflow lives in mydsstats.pax77.org/inhouse. Closed sessions can be viewed publicly at dsstats.pax77.org/te/inhouse-sessions.

What it is for

• Create a named private run for an in-house group.
• Track players, games played, observer games, winrate, and rating delta.
• Upload replays into the session.
• Build a roster from known dsstats ratings or manual player entries.
• Mark players as sitters when they should not be suggested for the next game.
• Suggest a next match with balanced teams, a bench, and sitters.
• Review closed session summaries later on the public website.

Requirements

Active sessions require sign-in with passkeys/WebAuthn in the PWA. Use HTTPS or localhost in a browser that supports passkeys.

Closed session browsing on the public website does not require sign-in.

Active session workflow

Open mydsstats.pax77.org/inhouse.

Typical flow:

1. Sign in or register with a passkey.
2. Add or confirm your StarCraft II profile.
3. Create a session with a session name.
4. Add players to the roster by searching dsstats ratings or entering them manually.
5. Mark players as sitters if they should not be placed into the next match.
6. Use Suggest to generate Team 1, Team 2, bench, and sitters.
7. Adjust the draft manually if needed.
8. Upload finished replays to attach games to the session.
9. Close the session when the run is complete.

Match suggestions

The suggestion tool uses the session roster and rating data to propose the next game.

It considers:

• Team rating balance.
• Players who have played fewer games.
• Players who observed recently.
• Sitters who should be left out.
• Bench players when more than six players are present.

The suggestion is a starting point. You can still move players between Team 1, Team 2, and Bench before the group starts the next game.

Replay uploads

Replay files are decoded locally by the PWA and then attached to the selected session with observer/session metadata.

Uploaded session games update:

• Player games.
• Observer counts.
• Winrate.
• Rating delta.
• Game list and replay details.
• Next-match suggestions.

Closed sessions

Closed sessions are available on the website under TE > InHouse Sessions.

The list shows closed date, session name, creator, and game count. Selecting a session opens the details page.

The detail view shows:

• Player summary with games, winrate, and rating delta.
• Session games.
• Team commanders for each game.
• Expected win probability and average rating.
• Replay details when a game row is opened.

Notes

• Active sessions are meant for live/private group coordination.
• Closed sessions are meant for public review and history.
• Ratings shown in the tool come from the dsstats server, consistent with the rest of dsstats.
