Optionally delay TBA posting for a few seconds

[legoktm]

One thing I noticed at Chezy Champs and again at CalGames last year was that TBA posting was iinstantaneous, which is great, but sometimes even before the official score was announced at the venue. It definitely kills the suspense when your phone tells you the result while everyone else is eagerly waiting for the announcer to reveal it.

I would suggest putting in a delay of 10-20 seconds to account for this. I think it's more important during elimination matches though. It should probably be configurable since different announcer + scoring tea!s will take different amounts of time to reveal scores after they are finalized.

Great idea! I'll implement it before Chezy Champs 2016.

Classic FMS has a separate button to post scores (show the audience display + upload data). Maybe you can do something similar, although I don't quite remember the match submit flow in Cheesy Arena.

Posting to tba when the score is shown sounds like a good idea. Maybe also
auto post after a timeout in case scores don't get shown for some reason.

@fangeugene Good idea, I think that's probably the best option.
