Some Statistics

[Familiarity]

Aw Invicti. =(

I'm going to miss you on Nimrodel!

[Arkarianor]

I still show up on mylotro.com and I'm pretty sure that's where this list parses its data from.

I know, I'm saying its all or nothing. Because you still have your character sig, I know that you also show up on my.lotro and the lorebook leaderboards.

Dunno why you wouldn't appear on rath's site though.

[ellestone]

Check out all those BA's....wow they must b good:P

Nice...20k ...hmmm

[operaoneyes]

Hey Rath, here's a new little resource that you might be able to use to improve the site somehow.

They've opened up a data output API.

[Familiarity]

Hey Rath. I know TABA is evil and all, but could you fix it to show me in the kin? I also know Kalib is now in Firebeard Clan as well.

[Gladgilrian]

Why? joo got sumptin agin the illustrious N/A Kin?

[Familiarity]

Bwahaha. Not really, but I'm certain some people would be proud to represent their kin/tribe on the leaderboards.

The sites not working for me

The sites not working for me

yeah ive been having problems with it past couple days

[BLoNdiE]

is it bugged because it has not updated my infamy since the 18th o.O

is it bugged because it has not updated my infamy since the 18th o.O

There was a problem with the hosting that caused the site to be down for a number of days. As such I was not able to upload the stats to the SQL server as well. In a wonderful domino effect that caused all of the rating and renown gains to be wrong (based off of the 18th instead of the day before). So when I uploaded all of the backlog of data today I had to also write a script to go through and correct the bad data.

Hopefully everything is working now, but I have no guarantees. Anything you see wrong point it out and I will look into it. Also I have a dev key for the new data.lotro API so when I get around to it the individual player pages will show more information about the character (gear, stats, etc...)

[zaskoda]

Rauko's still showing up on Nimrodel.

???

[Arkarianor]

Yeah, and Faja still shows up.

He doesn't appear on the my.lotro leaderboards though.

[Thorandril]

He shows up on Brandywine.

[Arkarianor]

He shows up on Brandywine.

He also shows up on Nimrodel still, which was my point.

[Erasmus354]

Yeah, and Faja still shows up.

He doesn't appear on the my.lotro leaderboards though.

Why should I delete data?

Perhaps I can modify it to leave inactive players off of the boards but let them show up in searches. I dunno ... I just don't like the idea of deleting data even though someone deleted their character. I want the site to act as a history.


As for transfers ... yea they aren't easy to deal with. I would have to every day go through every active player (like 150,000 of them) and check that against the full leaderboard scrape to see if they are still showing up. You can see how it gets unfeasible.

Erasmus354 are you using the api? or screen scrape? it is a good idea not to delete data unless you know the data is corrupt in some way, if you are loading the data into a DB you can add a Boolean field to say whether the row is visible or not.

also the trasfers isnt that difficult if you write some simple logic or do a join then compare then add a true to the booloean field through an insert into...

ok... well if you want tell me a bit about what you are doing (specifically in a PM, don't want to create a security problem for you) and i may be able to help... is this pure hobby or do you have an interest in making this your vocation at some point if not already.

if you prefer your way then good job so far and good luck.

He DIDNT delete his char, he transferred to brandywine.

atm on your site, Faja shows up on Nimrodel and Brandywine.
