Hey everyone! I've circled back 'round to battle stuff and this time I bring you a new-and-improved Statistics page! You can check it out here!

The goal of this revamp was to solve a lot of problems with the old statistics page, both inside and out. Inside, the old page was a lot less efficient. The new page should take less time to load because of improved logic. On the outside, the new page has the information in a more compact and easy-to-view form, so you can quickly get an overview of what your statistics look like for a given pet and opponent. The data is presented in tables now and even color-coded to help you a bit visually :)

We did have to take images out of the tables, but this was a sacrifice we chose to make because the images were part of what made the old page so bloated and hard to process.

A few key notes, that I know people will ask about:

-- The "Forfeit Battle" link will now show up on the main "Challenge an Opponent" page if you are in the middle of the battle. It'll be at the top of the page; you can't miss it! -- For pet name and inactive account stalkers, the same URL still works to take you to the page with a dropdown so you can still see a user's pets that way. -- The totals on each pet/opponent page should update instantly, but the grand totals (for the entire account) are cached.

I hope you enjoy this change, and know that there are more changes to come; In particular, huge improvements to the armory and scroll library are coming up next!

That's awesome! Thanks Bug :)

Is there any chance of showing the opponents that we haven't battled yet so we know which ones we have left to battle?

I live this! However, I like to see the artwork of challengers. Could it be too much to ask a link to artwork by clicking their name on battle records?

Not sure if it is just me, but everything is shifted off to the right on my screen when I look at the stats.

I talked with on this and the tentative answer is no. This is because it would not be feasible to do this with event and throwback opponents, since they change all the time and some come back on a regular basis. So like, if an event started, you would still have battle history with the opponent from the previous event, even though it's in the clear for the new event. The only way to tell the difference would be to code specific times for events and all... It's just so much trouble it doesn't seem worth it. Sorry.

You can see these from the main page, by selecting the name from the Opponents dropdown. The image should automatically change to the selected opponent.

Is PsychoDreamer your battle pet? I only see Careaper listed twice if so, which is correct. The first is normal Careaper, the second is the Friday the 13th form. They have the same name. I think we have a couple opponents that are like that, unfortunately there's not much to be done about it if they are just named the same thing.

Thank you for reporting that little CSS bug! I've just made a fix.

With the new server, changes take a bit of time to update on the actual site (like 15 minutes ish) so if it's still doing it for you, please wait 15 minutes in case it's just not updated yet c:

Ohhhh this is lovely. I share 's dream of one day seeing who I haven't fought, but understand why that's not currently feasible. Still, wonderful change!! I'll miss the pictures but I love the color coding.

Yes, for narrow windows it will appear to align or go off to the right. Fortunately, the spacing and alignment can be adjusted. And it's acknowledged and on the way! :)

Looks like a solid no frills statistics page. I like it. The missing challenger images will be sorely missed...

And just a small suggestion, for "See Stats for Pet" and "See Stats for Opponent" I think "Stats" should be changed to "Statistics."

Edit: Or "Battle Stats"

@ Rocketlauncher Yes, a fix was already made and pushed. But things don't update instantly, because the server has to do fancy stuff rebuilding itself when I make changes. It is closer to 15-20 minutes now for changes to show up.

[edit] I don't know about the phrasing change, is it really ambiguous to say Stats there?
