Maybe I'm missing something here, and I'm kinda a noob in the whole automated web scraper stuff... but if you want it to be automated, why leave it in the hands of the users and THEN the updaters? Just make the web scraper look at the "Update Thread" and have it scan for username. When it sees Bzerkap - 3, it adds 3 TPE to Bzerkap's TPE total. Then have an Updater page which lets users access their page and they can distribute TPE there, in accordance to the TPE Update Scale. Bzerkap would then go to the Update Page and see he has a pool of 3 TPE and can allocate that as he sees fit. Once TPE is spent, it auto-updates to the database, so come game day his player is as up to date as possible, instead of Friday games using the TPE updates from the past Saturday. The only room for error in this system is if the person who does the Update Thread writes an incorrect TPE amount for a person.
Like I said, I'm no web design guru, but a system like this doesn't seem horribly difficult. Thoughts?
