Elements Statistics

[Cisco]

k after some testing there is one thing that bothers me and that is after logging in I have to log up again after a short time. At least increase the time you can be loged in. Also if you make a mistake whene adding the stats you cannot change it. That may be an additional function that can be added. Fg are one thing maybe ad the other levels to your prog.

I have installed and tested Opera and it didn't seem to give me any problems to register a new name.
I still have some tests to do, in the meantime still awaiting for Essence's answer. :s


By the way, my statistics (http://elementsstatistics.comxa.com/getstatistics.php?dv=2778822887) since yesterday with ocasional games Slightly modified version from PuppyChow's rainbow  8)

Just read your post Lanidrak and i'm getting the same error.
I'll put my efforts into this one right now since i can test it and catch it, it might fix Essence's, if related.
Thank you very much !

@ Cisco
I also was bothered by the login timeout and i modified it about 10 minutes right before your last post, now the timeout should be 20 minutes since your last refresh to any page.
Please confirm when able

Hum, yes i could add the other levels, i'm going to think about it, in long-term i think, since many bugs seem to be present at the moment.
Also, about battles, i plan to add a "reset" button at the very least. But indeed you're right i should add the delete-battle function.

(finally, i could post without the "warning: new replies have been made" message )

yeah Cisco, I noticed that aswell... My demo deck accidentally submitted an Elemental Mastery against Chaos Lord when in reality it lost.

Which brings me on to another point, what is there to stop people signing in to this and submitting any nonsense they want? I know it is early days but I have a suggestion (believe it or not)

Your Username/Password allows you to log in and only see statistics.
With a standard User/Pass you can also 'create' a deck and save it.
Then some way to check if similar decks already exist.
Once a deck is saved you are asked to put a Name/Password on this deck.
It is up to your discretion to reveal the Name/Password of the deck
Otherwise only you can submit statistics from battles using your deck.

This also doesn't stop the problem if people use a deck and then accidentally/intentionally/forgetfully alter it by say 1 or 2 cards, then keep playing, oblivious to their changes while continuing to submit their statistics from fights.

Another brief edit:
Thanks for your time in going out of your way to help us improve Elements.

@Lanidrak

Only the owner of the "standard" account has access to modify statistics from decks created by that account. check my earlier post for another  statistics (http://elementsstatistics.comxa.com/getstatistics.php?dv=2778822887) link and you will realise you can't access my deck with guest account.
However, since i just gave away guest's account, everyone has it, and so at that point, nothing stops anyone from submitting nonsence statistics.

The login-password you insert at registration are in fact to get exclusive access to your new decks and statistics.

Also, thanks for your cooperation About the ogame-alike idea, i read it, it could be interesting yes, but indeed it's a long term idea. Also, i am not expert in developping websites, this is not my first but actually the first i dispose to public, i'm confident i have quite a good safety when it comes to certain attacks, but who knows what could i miss, so i recognize myself i would not like to take the risk of hosting Elements' source or parts of it in my host for quite a long time. :s

- The issue with google chrome was located and fixed. I will have to look for a better solution but it should work with no problems right as it is. It was not related to Essence's case though sadly, his/her unability to register bothers me

Could you make the "stay logged in" time longer? I'm using it and it's great, but sometimes to submit a stat I have to relog in.

And could you make an "overall" row? To show the overall win percentage and such?

Thanks for the comment. We're glad you like it

The login time will be increased as requested. About the overall stats, that was one of the first things in the todo list, but then the register and login issues came up and it was halted.

That will be done soon

[FrozenFlame]

Yes, we're glad someone is enjoying
-Login session now lasts 60 mins after last refresh

Great Lanidrak

[Lanidrak]

Welcome to the forums Jonybat.

@FrozenFlame - yep, the chrome issue is sorted i has account now roar.

Time to work out the actual win rate of my Rainbow Deck against FGs as opposed to the purported 75% it has .

[FrozenFlame]

Next features that will be added will probably be the ability to change password, change deck name, and cancel battles. We're onto adding those when able.

Cancel last battle feature added. In order to be able to use it you have to have inserted a battle during the login session (and not having cancelled your last battle).
You can Only cancel the last battle.

[icybraker]

Very nice. I'm currently using this- total of 48 battles with a 38% win rate. Keep up the great work

Personally, I would like to be able to order the FG's in order of winning percentage, or have it automatically order for me. But that's my only complaint so far (besides the fact that it's still pretty empty). But it's just new, and it's looking great.

[FrozenFlame]

Hey Icybraker
Umm about it being pretty empty, i agree but you answered yourself:)
We try adding new features, now at the beginning it's not being hard since we started without some of the basic features* but it might get tricky:P

*Like being unable to recover or change a password. Changing password functionality was added today as a side note!

Also, for sorting the statistics, it's a great idea, and we're going to take a look about that.
Keep an eye on your control panel, if we're adding that functionality, as for now (didn't think about it too much yet), it seems likely to be able to set sorting preferences in there.
Thanks for your comment,
and have fun playing

Sorting statistics table feature added!

In statistics (the page where you can add battles at), if you load another deck's statistics, the newly loaded table will not be able to be sorted. This issue is (obviously) known, and we have already located the problem. However, by this time, we have no knowledge to fix it, as we are not too used to Object Oriented Programming*. We could use some javascript expert to help us out here if any is around
Anyway, as for now we plan to just keep improving the website and not bother about that bug too much, when the time comes we might study javascript to learn how to use it correctly to fix this bug. (*This is due to the fact we used an already made script to sort tables: Why reinvent the wheel? Credits not taken from true owner  )

If you want to see any deck's statistics sorted in any non-default order, you can always grab the direct url listed at that same page and use it, you will be able to sort the statistics as you wish there.
