Re: SE4 Rating System
You should look into storing the stats in a database (such as MySQL) so that Users can sort them by various means (via a scripting language such as PHP).

I wish I had the education to do so, the time to do so, and the money to buy Dreamweaver. Oh, and a wife who wasn't irritated when I embarked on yet another item that takes time away from us.
But, one of these days... *looks off into a distant golden sunset...*

PHP and MySQL are both open source, which means you can download PHP and MySQL free of charge, as well as readily finding the official MySQL and PHP ducumentation Online, also free of charge. As you can write PHP in just about any plaintext editor, and embed it into the HTML you already have, all it would take is the time to download, install, learn enough to produce the DB and interface, and then the time of actually setting it up (which would be subsumed in the task of learning).
Time is about the only thing you'd need to come up with.

Re: SE4 Rating System
I believe your webhost has to support php also for it to work on your pages. Yours might and you just aren't aware.

It's supported (1 DB limit).
I didn't realize it was open-source (shows how much I know about it). But, as I said, spending the time to learn it and incorporate the changes is something I don't have time to do right now. Also, please see note about wifey (or, the "sergeant major"  ).

Tks loads for the links, Jack! I'll go take a look.

Re: SE4 Rating System
I'll add a page to the site tonight to show games in progress that have players being rated. This will serve to echo confirmation.

Re: SE4 Rating System
Attention players who have indicated they are playing for a rating in a game:
I have gone through all the threads where people have indicated an agreement for the game to count as a rated game. Please check the site to make sure your game is listed. I have quickly thrown together an extra page to show rated games in progress (button on the Statistics page) or "Here" for your convenience.
Let me know if I missed anyone/any game. (not everyone sent me an email... )
PS: I'll add another report to sort by player name later and take a look at a 4-button layout for the pages. Right now, wifey is waiting for us to watch "Daredevil".
