I have many projects in the works at the moment, sorry no time-frame on when any of the work will be completed.

However I figured I would give everyone a sneak peek of one of the new-additions, just to see what everyone thinks.

I like it! Any thoughts about bringing back the gunmen? Just on the main team stats page...I miss those guys!

Overall, I think that all your ideas have always been for the best.

 
I like it King. Hopefully, time will permit you to concentrate on implementing this stuff real soon. :cool:


 
Awesome, but could u explain what Defcon is suppose to tell me? Defcon 1 is in red and I'm guessing that this means somebody's gonna over take u or whatever..

In the gov't
Defcon 1 is lowest, higher the numbers the more profound it is, maybe u could adjust your colors to show that or I'm getting thwe whole scheme wrong... Looks nice man...

 
I like it KING_N just did not post earlier, as i got accused of being a kiss ass last time I praised the stats pages. will the feature be available to all teams?
 
SPIKE - you should know that i was just joking around with the kiss ass thing, lol

KING - is this new update for the UD stats?

Originally I added the gunmen with hopes of adding some fun into the stats, the gunmen would activate if your production was > 100% of your previous production. The big problem with them was very few understood what they meant, they were also done away with to make for a cleaner more professionial look.

Myself I would like to use them again, maybe I'll be able to find a use for them sometime in the future.

Defcon is defined as :

DEFCON - [def-kon]
–noun any of several alert statuses for U.S. military forces, ranked numerically from normal, 5, to maximum readiness, 1.

Origin: def(ense readiness) con(dition)]

Source: dictionary.com

Basically the breakdown for the U.S. military is

5] Peace
4] Normal, increased intelligence and strengthened security measures
3] Increase in force readiness above normal readiness
2] Further Increase in force readiness, but less than maximum readiness
1] Maximum force readiness. WAR!

Note: Some of us old fogies will remember it being used in the movie WarGames (1983)

I started the upgrade with the United Devices Stats, however it will be available to both United Devices and Folding @ Home.

Celerator said:
Can you explain the criteria for the various defcon values?
Click to expand...

Defcon Status is as follows:

5] No Threat, 7 day average is higher then threat.
4] Warning, threat's 7 day average is higher then yours.
3] 180 days or less warning, threat's 7 day average is still higher then yours.
2] 90 days or less warning, threat's 7 day average is still higher then yours.
1] 30 days or less left, war is upon you.

Bump for the importance of this thread.

King, I liked all of your ideas... Tis sure to be a hit.
 
The milestone hit indicator is cool too King. I am curious as to where you will put that, as to what page.

 
It will be located on each team's main stats page.

Lot of things in the works, just trying to determine that everything I'm planning to add is going to be useful.

U really like the alive dead all thing... Jesus isn't amused cause he has no idea what the hell u just muttered. :confused:
 
Looks real good, King! Since you're looking for things that people will find useful, here's something I've noticed:

It's taken a while to figure out what to look at on my own stats, but the attack/threat page is the most useful. I only wish it was more accurate. From what I can tell, it goes by daily production alone, whereas an average might be more accurate. The problem comes in for those of us running UDmon for caching work units. That generally winds up putting a day or so of 0 points or results into the mix. What about using the weekly or monthly average instead?

As far as the gunners, I'd love to see them back, too. I really miss 'em! What about using them for people you overtook since the last update? It would dress up the attack/threat page a bit with some animation. And some animation for the guys who are biting at your heels would look good, too. Any animations of dogs biting someone's rear-end? I know you're going for "professional", but we want to have fun with this too.

Thank you for the comments,

The UD overtake is currently determined using a 7day average, perhaps I'll add a switch that will allow the choice of 7 day average or a 30 day average. Or would everyone rather something along the lines of a 7 day, 14 day, 21 day, and 28 day average? The only problem I forsee is, if for any reason the stats run across a problem the more days the average is determined by the more skewed the average will be.

As far as the
attack.gif
image, in the past there was a major bash session done over using animated images / flashing text for any reason, that is main reason I've been hesitant to add them again. So I guess the real question is how many people would like to see their return in some function?

I think here and there would be good, but not too much, it would be overkill.

Maybe on attack/threats like 3-6 people up from you attack having the image, as you are gunning for them.... ?
