Hmm...now that the rankings have been updated, I'm wondering about those statistics for each category. Would it be possible to update those about once a month, or is it too burdonsome for the server Terry? I've had a few inquiries about the stats, it seems odd to leave them on the front page of quizzyland but to let them lie dormant. Any possible action on this?

Bringing this up for Terry's attention. Welcome back, by the way, Terry.

Good to see you around Terry. Could the quiz ranking be done at least once a month? I know it can't be ongoing, but it should be done at least monthly.

agreed,
any chance of having it done weekly on Sunday night or Monday night around 5am FT time (it's pretty quiet around that time)

Hmmm let's see if I can find an optimized way to do it. There really is no need for the server to die... I'll have to see if I can rethink how it works. But yeah, it would be cool to have those stats back up.

Thanks for the good work Terry, it looks nice. I noticed you removed the player statistics...will those be gone forever?

Problem with the player statistics is that it has to do LOTS of work. Ive removed it till i can think of a better way to calculate it, because right now it just consistently kills the database.

I thought so Terry. No worries...it was an enjoyable distraction but probably not an absolute necessity.
