  "textContent": "We are almost at the end of our community bonding period. It’s been nearly 1 month since GSOC 2026 results, and the time to formulate a proper plan for the future plan of action regarding our project💡\n\nHere is the breakdown of a rough plan of what I want to achieve during these 12 weeks.\n\n# (Project Setup and Implementation Plan) 💻\n\nWeek 1:\n\n  * Set up the project environment and go through the implementation of https://kibao.org/\n  * Discuss and plan the changes to be started first based on priority.\n  * Examine ‘main.cpp’ and other game files to understand how the working and how ‘tournaments.cpp’ can be implemented.\n\n\n\nWeek 2:\n\n  * Fix the user registration page with options for username and icons.\n  * Design pre-defined selectable icons in ‘Krita’.\n  * Write a blog post about “how to add tournaments”.\n\n\n\nWeek 3:\n\n  * Start with ‘tournaments.cpp’ and check if the strings like ‘usernames’ and ‘icons’ can be retrieved from the user pages.\n\n\n\nWeek 4:\n\n  * In ‘tournaments.cpp’, make the logic for detecting players online or joining tournaments with ‘room codes’.\n  * Create a Blog post on current progress.\n\n\n\nWeek 5:\n\n  * Create a page for users to host and enter tournaments. In the hosted ‘tournament’, allow superusers/organizers to edit rules like number of days, variant type, and number of players.\n\n\n\nWeek 6:\n\n  * Filling empty spots with computerized opponents using the same logic as the ‘Play with AI’ option.\n  * Examine and fix matchmaking between the players in tournaments, if the elimination and hierarchy work after elimination.\n\n\n\nWeek 7:\n\n  * Design the UI for ‘tournaments.qml’, integrating the logic of the.cpp file.\n\n\n\nWeek 8:\n\n  * Make the leaderboard where the winner rankings show up.\n  * Create a Blog post describing the implementation.\n\n\n\nWeek 9 and 10:\n\n  * Examine the working and the build after completing the tournaments.cpp and tournaments.qml.\n  * Test and play with others in demo tournaments to get feedback on the working process.\n  * Add Voice chat for users playing the game. (if possible)\n\n\n\nWeek 11 and 12:\n\n  * Document the changes made, review the overall codebase, and finalize it for the submission.\n  * Create a Final Blog post summarizing all work.\n\n\n\nThanks for reading. Happy coding🚀",
