Each player record contains gameplay traits such as:
- Name and club at the snapshot date.
- Birth country and age-driving fields.
- Role bucket and debut year.
- Representative and Origin categories.
Game Data
Snapshot-first data for fair daily puzzles
LeagueCipher uses static JSON files so answers do not shift mid-day and every player sees the same clues.
What is intentionally excluded
- No official logos.
- No player photos.
- No copied biographies or editorial text.
- No personal user accounts in the current build.
Refresh process
- Update `data/players.json` and `data/schedule.json`.
- Redeploy static files to Netlify.
- Confirm `/data/*` endpoints return current JSON with no-store headers.
Past results are not retroactively re-scored after data refreshes.
