Goshdarn Final - Match Wins

Post by Majination »

To teach myself Perl I had been writing a script to compile all sorts of interesting statistics on the players of 'Goshdarn. Unfortunately, that has all gone out the window now. However, there is a silver lining... I had the script output the final standings for everybody in its database. There are a few gaps, but it is for the most part complete. Sorry, players with under 20 matches were not kept in the database.

very cool, maji. :)

so there was a way to access the stats in a generalised way, independent of specific name-lookup?

I noticed that Loc's page still has Armagoshdarn player stats available, which means that name lookup still works, even though there's not a link to it.

Just add your player name to the following address to look up your stats: http://www.armagetron.mars.org/lookup/?player=

I did this when I noticed that my other two player names (Lawmune and .5.) weren't on Maji's list, even though they had 22 and 32 match wins respectively. I guess Maji's list only compiled stats on names that he played against?

Anyhow, it's too sad to think of these as the final stats. I'm still hoping beyond hope that goshdarn returns :(

Unfortunately, no.

More accurately, the script only compiled the stats of those people it had seen in the "now playing" section of the armagoshdarn website. To avoid bandwidth consumption the webpage was monitored every so often throughout the day, checking the list of players for those it didn't recognize. When it found someone new it would add them to the database, recording their current ranking and number of match wins. To keep the database up to date, at midnight GMT the script would look up and record the totals for everybody it knew (bandwidth hog - this is why it would only keep track of people with more than 20 matches).

The cool part...

It would keep a record of everyone's ranking and matches for each of the last seven days. Armed with this information the script was able to output how many matches each person had won over the last seven days, and more importantly, how many places they had moved up or down on the listing over those seven days. This was REALLY COOL because you could see not only who your closest competitors were, but also who was catching up to you.

The things I was in the middle of implementing were:

o Ranking of top match winners over the last seven days.
o Ranking of top rank improvements over the last seven days.
o Ranking of Top Five greatest number of match wins in a week (like a high score)
o Ranking of Top Five greatest rank improvements in a week (like a high score)

I even had some spiffy html output.

That's true, Chills. I hope so, too... 'Goshdarn was the only server I ever played at. I just don't find the same level of enjoyment elsewhere. Sure, the same players will move on to new servers, but quite frankly it wasn't always just the players. The server had character.

I agree. Hopefully, though, the server will come back. I refuse to give up hoping, hehe.

Here is a small shot of the output with ranking/match improvement arrows.
Hopefully other servers will take the idea and run with it. Notice that this is a 10 day total instead of seven... this is because I hadn't been running the program every day during my testing phase.

Wooohoo!
You may not be in the top 15 match winners under only one name, but at least you have the recognition of many that you are in the top 15 best players there. You are one scary adversary! :o

That's true, Chills. I hope so, too... 'Goshdarn was the only server I ever played at. I just don't find the same level of enjoyment elsewhere. Sure, the same players will move on to new servers, but quite frankly it wasn't always just the players. The server had character.
I agree. BTW- I really like that stats page... very useful...Someday. :|
