Demigod Pantheon Statistics - Log/Info/Suggestions

I want suggestions!

from Demigod Forums

Hello everyone,

As Stardock's web developer, I was tasked with creating a statistics website for Demigod using the ungodly amount of data we (will) have available to us.  That website is now located at http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com.  A bunch of you already saw the "beta" version a few weeks back.  While this site is still a beta, I am happy enough with it to remove the beta message that was at the top of the page in the previous version.

Today I pushed an update that added a bunch of new statistics, pages, and a slight redesign. Starting today I will be keeping a log of changes to the site in this post.  I will also be checking for any suggestions, ideas, or feedback you guys may have on the site, so feel free to reply with any ideas. 

Please keep in mind that the site is still a work in progress.  Some numbers are still off, the design will likely be changed some more, and we will be adding more statistics in the future.  It will likely be updated a few more times before Demigod's release.

Change Log:
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).
- 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, and you cannot view other's notes or notes written about you.
- The player stats on the left side of the primary player page now includes a small description for each stat.
- Fixed minor bugs with graphs.
- Fixed other minor bugs.

Just to let everyone know.  We will be resetting all Pantheon stats probably either today or in the next couple of days.  Since there was quite a bit of junk data in there we want to get a fresh look at the data.  And of course, we will be resetting the data again on launch day.

I'm removing the #.

Probably best not to give out #s on the internet to everyone.

Note: We are making major changes to the way we are handling our stats system, as well as adding more stats.  There will be some issues with the numbers and likely some bugs and crashes on the website for this week.  Please ignore these issues for this week!  Thank you.

Thanks for the update, Bara.  If this is not in the plans:

If the desync/timeout bug is not 100% fixed prior to release please remove DC tracking or penalties from player stats.  Players are logging disconnects they don't deserve. 

Thanks

Check out the new games list and game info pages and let me know what you think!

Yes :p

Another update guys, here's the change log:

4/9/2009
- Added Top Demigods section, showing which Demigods are being used the most, win the most, etc.
- Added Demigods tab to player info page, showing which Demigods each player has played their stats for that Demigod (note: stats are inaccurate for the time being).
- Added Skirmish Rankings tab to Top Players.
- Major changes to how we are collecting stats and data.
- Minor image and backend changes.

This update dealt more with the backend changes.  It will hopefully make things easier in collecting data in the future.  Note that the Demigod stats are inaccurate.  We will be doing another stats reset soon to prepare for Demigod's release.  From then on there should be no major stat issues on the site.

Sweet updates So what is happening with the Clan section

Reply #114 from Demigod Forums Top

Would it be possible to get Stats per Country (or even on state(equivalent)-level?). I'd really like to map the Data.

Being able to visualize Data like "Most played Demigods per Country" - "Average players per game per country" - "Winratio per Country" - "Matches per Day per Country" - "Location of the Top 100 players" would be incredibly cool. Given access to the Data I could quickly automatize the map generation using a software a few friends and myself are nearly finished developing.

 

Example Map, did I say I <3 maps already?

Reply #115 from Demigod Forums Top

I actually wouldn't like this.  It will expose builds that correlate to success.  I think that is part of the skill and being handed the recipe for a powerful build kinda deminishes the accomplishment for those of us who experiement and tweak...?

Just a thought.

Whoa!!  The "Top Demigods" page ROCKS HARD!  I love all those stats!  So the reason I hate Regulus is completely bourn out, eh HorseRadish?  :D  j/k - I know those stats aren't accurate.

Heh....

We are currently not collecting any data by region.  If we do start collecting such data, we'll see what we can do as far as map generation.

Just a little something.

Experience should be changed to "Rating" or "Elo Rating". I only found out recently the "Experience" column was Elo ratings and not the actual amount of experience you have earned with your Demigods.

Are stats going to be reset in morning?

Reply #124 from Demigod Forums Top

Oh and Custom Game Rankings and Skirmish should be under one ranking, imo. Its pretty annoying to have your stats split because you played some in Skirmish, then some in Custom Game, when at the end of the day they are basically the same mode but Skirmish is auto'ed.

Asked this before without much response, starting to worry me. Someone just please tell me that you can join ranked matchess with preset groups like  HOSK, DoTA, and Dawn of War 2.

Tell me it doesn't just search for a game and automatically toss you in there without the ability to manually search for games at least and tell your mate which game to join. Sorry for the trouble, and thanks!
