This is a test again.

[quote who="2of3" reply="14" id="2404906"] This may be before my time, but what comments section on the home page? We used to have a comment section (a guest book of sorts) on our personal pages. It was disabled following a rash of abusive messages left on people's pages by a disgruntled member. I'm not sure if they were going to be disabled anyway as the date stamps were all screwed up.[/quote] Ahh, I remember. Yea, I believe we were going to disable them anyways.&nbs

I don't like the way the karma system works, and will fix it soon. My primary complaint is that the karma differs per-site. When I update it, karma will be shared across all sites so you only have 1 karma count. I'll probably also change it so that the links will point to wherever the karma came from (eg: if I give you karma from the Demigod forums and you're viewing your profile from the ImpulseDriven forums, you'll see a link to the Demigod forums for that karma point).</p

[quote who="Fuzzy Logic" reply="29" id="2396901"]Emoticons disappearing for no reason is not logical [/quote] You don't even know the half of it :p The emoticons are added via Javascript, and the javascript runs client-side. It makes no sense that everyone would all of a sudden start having this problem unless the javascript file broke, which it didn't. Bara

We unfortunately cannot easily "ignore" the people with a base 1000 experience. The problem is that those people still have their Win/Loss/Games Played records, so there's no easy way for us to tell if those numbers are before or after the experience reset. And we cannot simply ignore players with 1000 experience altogether because some people may go higher/lower than 1000, then win/lose a game to bring them back to 1000 and all of a sudden find that they aren't being counted. I

[quote who="pacov" reply="450" id="2381275"]I saw the update today and am very pleased! Looks good. I'm not sure if its a bug, but through this link http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/demigods/player/28414/ it looks like alot of my individual dg stats have been updated, but my rook stat is definitely wrong. I show up with 4 wins, 1 loss and appear to be the number 4 rook. Thanks for all the hard work![/quote] Try playing a (ranked) ga

A minor update: the Notes functionality that Frogboy mentioned has been implemented on the website. You can go to any player's page and you will see a Notes tab, at which point you will be able to add/edit/delete notes you have made. Notes, for the moment, are private and only you will be able to see them. Bara

I pushed an update earlier this morning: 9/21/2009 - Fixed how player stats are saved to the database, so custom games now count for Ladder Rankings/Experience (not all custom games though, just ranked custom games, see below). - Added Notes tab to player pages. This will allow you to view and manage private notes for other players, which will eventually appear within Demigod itself. Only you can view notes you've written, a

There are plans to release a web service that would allow you to access the data, but I'm not sure when that will be. I'll talk to Frogboy about possibly releasing the service alongside a future Demigod update. Bara

I'll have this fixed soon, now that I'm using Chrome more often :) Bara

Karma changes depending on which site you are viewing it from. On the Demigod forums, you may have 14 karma and on the Stardock forums you may have 22. Check all of the sites and see if you have 22 on one. If not, then it's likely attributable to the bug JagerJack posted above. Bara

[quote who="Flexscan123" reply="11" id="2306381"] Hi Bara [Suggestion] Exp display on Games Played List What do you think? [/quote] We've thought about it, but we aren't currently keeping track of experience changes per game. The major problem is that we have different experience values for each game type (eg, tournaments vs. skirmish vs. custom games), so we'd have to store multiple values to make it accurate, and we just aren't

We are having issues with Feedburner unfortunately. It would require switching over all of our RSS URL's to a local system, doing some whacky things with feedburner's system, or using a different online system entirely. With all of these cases it requires some work to resolve. I'll add it to my list of things to do but it will not be high priority. Bara

Ok guys, we're going to try something. We have reason to believe that one of our servers may be the cause of the problem, so we've turned it off. Please let me know if you experience page load problems related to the "Recently Active Posts" not loading over the next few days. If it does, then we'll try turning that server back on and turning the one the forums are on now off. This way we can rule out server issues and hardware problems. Thanks for the feedback guys! Bara

[quote who="Elmoman" reply="3" id="2273101"] Quoting GunslingerBara, reply 2Quoting Elmoman, If a game shows everyone as losing, that means the host disconnected, no one was chosen as the new host for some reason, and so everyone got a loss. Would you happen to have a link to some games where you saw this? http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/game/658136/player/59638/ That seems to be the only one I could find.

[quote who="Elmoman" reply="24" id="2271931"]I just checked my pantheon stats, and was extremely supriced and disappointed. Mainly I checked, as I my team has not lost a single since I started playing as an Unclean Beast, and I wanted to see how the pantheon would show it. Pantheon has failed. It shows loads of losses for me, and when I started investigating, it looks like there are 2 reasons for this: Reason 1: The statistics record a loss for me, even

[quote who="Boxleitner" reply="13" id="2272118"] It doesn't work that way. It doesn't turn into a race for who wins first. It may have been that way a while ago but not anymore. Now, when the hosts disconnects, it tries to find a new host at random from the remaining players. Once it has selected a new host, whoever is in the host's game that he's playing will be the one that is counted, and all other games will not be counted. Bara! Then how will we know if our

Some people have complained that certain pages have failed to load, loaded only halfway, or loaded only specific sections and not others.
