Mind if I uploading playlogs?
 

Or: Do you mind if your IP is shown for everyone?

Thinking of uploading the playlog for Zeal Duels ones every night and making it public.
Good or bad idea?

i don't mind, as long as you erase the IP-addresses from the log. i know they aren't that 'private'. but there is no need to show them to everyone.

Will be a bit hard to erase every IP :(

Don't bother removing the IPs.

Lower the quality, make the IP's unreadable. ;)

I think it won't take much more than 5 minutes or so to build a PHP viewer for those logs, which removes the IP addresses.

And with a little more effort such a viewer could turn out really neat :rolleyes:

I think it's a good idea. Even better would be to make a webpage where the stats are broken down by player, so you can see more than just the raw playlogs. Years and years ago iced used to run a CTF server where it did this.

but the logs have been publically available since forever... !

Would be appreciated if you give it a try.

The first idea was to make something similar to ngstats from UT.

But everyone I talked to so far, feels like it is a bit to hard.

You are refering to something that was experimental and hasent been re-uploaded since "forever".

What, exactly, is there against displaying IP addresses?

Monobot used to generate stats for the #jj2 IRC channel. If that code is still kicking around, It might be possible to implement that.

The stats can tell us quite a few useful things, like where the majority of players are, the peak server hours, the most addicted player etc. I wouldn't mind if the IP adresses were filtered out, but maybe find a way to connect IP adresses to user names (Be it multiple user names or IP addies) and help the community trace the rogue players, that would be cool

In other words; not likely ;)

make a /register and /login feature :D it's pro

the original battle server had a stats script..!
