Hey, the past few days the stats were only changing the last thing said. I fixed it and reran it for this month so everything should be looking good.

The stats won't be "updated" for a bit. They will have the numbers refreshed daily (12am CST/10pm PST) as usual, but I'm in the process of rewriting my stat program from scratch. I'll post news when the beta site has something more spectacular to say.

In the meantime I'd like to bring up a few issues the server has been running into. With all the fun valve has been having with the Portal update shenanigans they have messed a few things up with TF2 or SRCDS at least. I can no longer query players without having to get the status of everyone in the server. This doesn't mean much to the end user (you), except instead of seeing frags in the server you'll now see the amount of time connected for each player. And that's only if you're on the beta site, the normal site won't be ready to go until my parser is.

The other fun part is linux servers across the board have been getting delisted from the master server for odd reasons (still no response from Valve), so in the meantime if I'm not here to manually readd ourselves to the master server we get delisted for a few hours. This so far isn't crippling the server or anything but just one more thing I wish I didn't have to deal with!

Today (on the beta site) I've added a few more things:

Tracking:
Stolen Sandviches
Escort Points (from pushing the cart in payload)
Razorback Backstab Blocks
Suicides

Also, another fun addition, at the bottom of your user stats page you should see your famous last words. This is the last thing you've said in the server's recorded history - so before going, say something worth putting on your tombstone!

If you were wondering what I have planned please refer to the new To-Do list I've compiled. If you have any other things you'd like to see done then post them at the #cafe or on the steam community page, or message me. Whatever you need.

I will probably work on getting comments on the news eventually...........

Things have been trudging along here at the cafe, we seem to have stagnated around the 75%ile on GameTracker. I'd like to see it more popular, but the server seems to be busy enough when we need it.

Mapchanges:
Out: pl_swiftwater
It's had it's time but now we must let this go. With 131 votes it still only manages to maintain a 3.00 rating, and is only "ok" as a custom map. In it's place we present:


Add: plr_panic_b2
Add: ctf_haarp_b2
Ardy says these are good maps so I hope they are because I haven't tested them!


Stats Changes:
Userstats now will track Engineer buildings built, and the amount of ubers you've dealt.
A bigger and more important change is the weaponstats will now track damage, accuracy, and percentile of damage (compared to everyone). The bars are kind of messy but this is better than nothing.

If you head over to your user page in the stats you'll see up top a new section: weapon stats. This will have a breakdown of all the weapons you've scored a kill with for this month, as long as you've gotten more than 3 kills with it.


There are lot of missing images, but this is an easy fix when I have a few bored moments.



Also a small but large note: I have time tracked correctly now, bringing the stats parser up to version .2 or .3

InterNAP will be performing maintenance on one of its routers between 10pm and 3am, starting on 2/3. This maintenance may cause brief periods of connectivity loss or increased latency for the server.
