Also, this is great news, I can't wait <3
I think it's probably because more people check General Discussion instead of Announcements.

Announcements tend to get posted to the front page of the site and the patcher, so I would hope more people would see Announcements.

It's all good now though, since it got moved.. but it's not yet on the front page. Huh.

Are you gonna release Tournament Code for othet people than from ESL? Me and my friends are making lol site about e-sports and we are gonna do tournaments on it. We want to use Tournamet Code for that. We managed to build for us and it's working great. All we need to know is we can legally use it? ;-)

We’re still in development on this API, and you’ll be hearing more about it in the coming months (how it will work, who can access it, etc). But in preparation for this, we wanted to get this Privacy Policy change out of the way, which is what I just did .

As a dev experimenting with various sources for league data I would really appreciate some more details, whatever you can give out, regarding these APIs. More specifically, will they include player match histories (what regions?), detailed item and champion ability info (numbers and scaling stuff), have query limits and player anonymity?

Posting it for attentive forum users to see, not just sliding it into the text that everyone just clicks AcceptAccept to anyways.

We will have lots of information for you to dig through in the coming months. We are not quite ready to talk all those details quite yet, but you'll have all the information you'll need at your fingertips by the time the API is ready for use!

I would hope a "privacy policy" would involve an option to keep your stats private, rather than just avoiding the issue by making you forfeit your concerns in order to play the game.
