One question: does it use CD key hashes? If someone plays a game with the exact same name that I use, it wouldn't record his stats as if they were mine, would it?
I can almost guarantee that it would only record stats based on CD Key hash. It would probably even be possible for it to only record statistics for players with a legitimate copy of the game (ex: if the server allows pirates to play on it, but you don't want to record pirates stats because they're El Cheapo badkids).

It does use the CD key to link member profiles so don't worry if your one of those people that changes their every time they join a server, it will be collected together. This does of course create a new problem, of say you have a brother or sister that plays on your installation of Halo, those stats played will be recorded under the CD key. Personally I think thats a forfeit worth having if it means you can change your name and you don't have to re-link it on the website.
Sorry Freelancer, forgot to mention this was Skyline and I's project, although I have no idea what his current server app does, and he probably stopped adding functionality to stat track but his old server app did the job :)
It will remind people of Cerebrum/Synapse, some of the icons are from the Cerebrum project, MrBig let us use them and Klange did want to help out with the project way back, but he sort of disappeared.
Its somewhat annoying that we deleted the SQL table that had all the previous game data, as we had more games up.
Its good to see people interested, so thanks for the support.
There's a way to determine who killed an ai, if you ever wanted to count that at all.
Revive it. I can lend a hand if you want it :P
I don't have much in the way of technical skills to offer, but if nothing else, I could offer ideas on how to improve it.
As I said, it was one of the things Jcap and I wanted added into the application eventually. He's been working on making it store kills/deaths/score/etc in the database recently like the old app (he sent me some of the old source for Xerzi which linked with the online portion you're talking about) and the MDB database is starting to look similar. You guys should get in touch again, though there are a couple things Jcap and I want to see integrated into the app before this (like vote kick and mapnext).Quote:

Even the simplest version of this idea could make a big difference in the halo "community" if released.
