Capper Studio & Capper Roster

For Discord servers with more than one capper. Capper Roster turns a role into a roster: everyone with your Capper role gets their own graded record and their name on their picks, while your server's house record keeps counting. Capper Studio gives each of them a web panel to post picks, check their numbers and change their name, so you never hand out Manage Server.

How it fits together

One role makes the rosterYou pick a Capper role. Anyone holding it can post picks, in Discord with /pick or on the web in Capper Studio, and their first pick puts them on your roster. Anyone with Manage Server can post with /pick too, and those picks count as theirs.
Their record and the house recordGame lines, player props and parlays are graded automatically at the final. “Other” picks (futures, anything the books don't list) are graded by a server manager. Each pick counts on its capper's own record and on your server's house record, unless you leave that capper out. Only picks that actually posted to Discord count.
Every pick says who made the callWith two or more active cappers, cards read “Name · via Your Server” with the capper's avatar. With one capper, cards look exactly as they always have.
Nothing of yours is exposedCappers never get Manage Server. In the Studio they see only their own picks and record. Settings, channels, billing, alerts and members stay with you.
Plan
Capper Roster and Capper Studio come with the Premium + Capper Studio plan: $10 a month or $100 a year, with all of Premium included and unlimited cappers. Already on Premium? Choose Upgrade to Capper Studio at the top of the ✦ Premium page; Stripe prorates the difference.

Part 1 · For server owners

You need Manage Server on the Discord server (the dashboard's alert-manager role isn't enough for the roster). Everything here is in the dashboard at sportdataiq.com/dashboard → your server → ✦ Premium.

Before you start

  1. The server is on Premium + Capper Studio. On the $5 Premium plan, use Upgrade to Capper Studio; without Premium, pick the Capper Studio plan.
  2. Capper Picks is set up: in Premium → Profile & branding, your server's name, colours and at least one picks channel (free, VIP or both). Cappers post into these channels.
  3. SportDataIQ can DM you. Notices like paused alerts and capper updates come by DM. Type /dms in your server once: it sends a test and, if Discord blocks it, shows you the Direct Messages switch to turn on. The dashboard also warns you when DMs to you are blocked.

Set it up in three steps

  1. Choose the Capper role. Premium → Cappers → Capper role. Pick a role you already use for cappers, or make a new @Capper role in Discord first. It's the same setting as “Picks role” in Profile & branding.
  2. Give the role to your cappers in Discord: Server Settings → Members → the member → Roles.
  3. Send them the Studio link: sportdataiq.com/studio/servers. They sign in with Discord and your server is listed. They can also post from Discord with /pick; both count the same. Scheduling is in the Studio (and the dashboard) only.
Premium → Cappers — the role and the roster
Check the roster once
When you switch the roster on, earlier picks are matched to whoever posted them, so a moderator's one test pick can show up as a capper and turn on “Name · via Your Server” cards. Look over Premium → Cappers and remove anyone who shouldn't be there.

Running the roster

Premium → Cappers lists every capper with their own record, this month or all time. Only members with Manage Server can change it. Each row has a ⋯ menu:

  • Pause posting / Resume posting. A paused capper can't post. Picks they scheduled wait; any whose game starts while they're paused are cancelled, never posted late.
  • Make head capper. One per server. It's a label, not a permission: when a paused capper tries to post, they're told to ask the head capper or a server manager.
  • Leave out of house record / Count in house record. Decides whether this capper's picks count toward your server's record, for all their picks past and future.
  • Remove from roster. They can't post here any more and their record freezes at that moment. Picks already posted still grade and count; scheduled ones are held and cancelled at game time. Reinstate brings them back and unfreezes the record.

Every pick says who made the call
Note
Picks you post from the dashboard count as the server's house picks, unless you hold the Capper role yourself. Picks you post with /pick in Discord always count as yours and put you on the roster. To open the Studio for yourself, give yourself the Capper role.

The roster in Discord: /roster

Anyone in the server can run /roster to see your top cappers ranked by units, this month or all time (removed cappers aren't listed). If your server keeps its record private, only managers see it, and only to themselves.

/roster — your cappers ranked in Discord

Part 2 · For cappers

You need the server's Capper role (ask the owner) and a Discord account. No admin rights, no install.

Sign in

  1. Go to sportdataiq.com/studio/servers and sign in with Discord.
  2. You'll see every server where you have the Capper role. If there's only one, you go straight in.
  3. Inside a server there are four tabs: Post, My picks, Record and Profile.
  4. Type /dms in the server once, so notices about your picks (like a scheduled pick that's on hold) reach you by DM.
sportdataiq.com/studio — one server, straight in

Post a pick

  1. What are you playing? League and market: spread, moneyline, total, team total, a player prop, a parlay, or “Other” for anything the books don't list.
  2. The pick. Game lines list today's and tomorrow's games (this week's for football); props cover the player's next game; parlay legs can come from any league. Lines and prices fill in from the books.
  3. Odds, units, book, write-up. The odds start at the book's current price, and your server's max units applies.
  4. Feed and when. Free, VIP or both (whichever channels your server has), then Post now or Schedule: at least a minute from now, up to two weeks out, before the game starts.

The preview (beside the form, or behind the eye button on a phone) is exactly the card Discord will get. Your name shows on it once the server has two or more active cappers.

Post — with the exact card preview
Note
Picks can't be posted on a game that has started. Once a pick has posted, it can't be edited: its odds and units are what your record is graded on.

My picks

Only your picks, in three lists: Open (posted, waiting on the game), Scheduled (not posted yet) and Graded.

  • Cancel a scheduled pick any time before it posts. It never goes out. To change one, cancel it and post it again.
  • Retract a posted pick only before its game starts. It shows as void on the card. An “Other” pick with no game to start can't be retracted.
  • Once the game has started, or the pick is graded, it stays on your record.
My picks — only yours

Your record

All time or the last 30 days: your W-L record, units, ROI and average CLV (how your price compared with the closing line), plus a split by league. Game lines, props and parlays are graded automatically from the box score; “Other” picks are graded by a server manager. You can't change a result.

If your server shows its record publicly, you also see the house record, and whether your picks count toward it.

Record — graded automatically

Your profile

Change the name shown on the roster and on your new picks (cards already posted keep the old one): 2 to 40 characters of letters, numbers, spaces and simple punctuation. Characters like @ # / : ( ) * _ ~ | aren't allowed, and the name can't be one another capper in the server already uses. Your picture is your Discord avatar.

Profile — your name

Troubleshooting

The Studio saysWhat to do
“You don’t have the Capper role here”The server has no Capper role chosen yet, or the member doesn’t hold it. The owner sets it in Premium → Cappers and gives it to them in Discord. A new role can take up to five minutes to show.
“This server doesn’t have Capper Studio”The server isn’t on the Premium + Capper Studio plan. A server manager upgrades under ✦ Premium in the dashboard.
“Premium is off in this server”The server’s plan has lapsed. Renew it under ✦ Premium in the dashboard.
“This server hasn’t set up Capper Picks”The owner creates the capper profile in Premium → Profile & branding first.
“No picks channel yet”The owner chooses a picks channel in Premium → Profile & branding → Channels & roles.
“Your picks are paused”A server manager (Manage Server) resumes them in Premium → Cappers. Their record and picks are still there.
“You were removed from this server’s cappers”A server manager chooses Reinstate in Premium → Cappers. The record unfreezes.
“Couldn’t check your Capper role with Discord”Discord didn’t answer in time. Wait a minute and try again.
“That game has already started”Picks can’t be posted, or scheduled to post, once the game is on.
“Max units for this server is …”The owner sets the most units a pick can carry, in Profile & branding.
“Schedule at most two weeks ahead” or “That would post after the game starts”Pick a time at least a minute from now, before the game starts and within two weeks.
“You’re not a capper anywhere yet”None of their servers has all three: the Premium + Capper Studio plan, a Capper role they hold, and them still on the roster (not removed). Check they signed in with the right Discord account.

FAQ

What does it cost?
The Premium + Capper Studio plan is $10 a month or $100 a year, with all of Premium included and unlimited cappers. Servers on the $5 Premium plan upgrade in one step and Stripe prorates the difference.
Do cappers need Manage Server or any dashboard access?
No. They only need the Capper role. The Studio is a separate panel that shows them their own picks and record, nothing of the server's.
I'm the only capper in my server. Do I need this?
Probably not. Capper Picks on Premium already gives one capper a graded record, branded cards and a public page. Cards only start naming cappers once two or more are active.
What happens when a capper leaves the server or loses the role?
They lose access to the Studio within a few minutes and can't post new picks. They stay on the roster, and any picks they already scheduled still post, until you Pause or Remove them. Their graded picks stay on the record.
Can a capper delete a losing pick?
No. A pick can only be retracted before its game starts. Once the game is on or the pick is graded, it stays on the record.
Do picks posted with /pick in Discord count the same?
Yes. /pick and the Studio post the same kind of pick to the same record.
Does SportDataIQ promise wins or members?
No. SportDataIQ grades picks and provides sports data. It doesn't promise wins, members or income. 21+ where legal. Gambling problem? Call 1-800-GAMBLER.
