That seems odd... why would a char be listed one day but not the next?

I suspect there've been a couple of data resets over the weekend; I was getting the "character hasn't logged in recently" message on Saturday for characters I looked at successfully on Friday.

Yep, I've seen these resets occurring over the last few days at about 6/7pm PST. Perhaps they're still tuning or this is actually a daily refresh? Seems kind of silly though.

I've been doing a little development based on the Armory, just to see how feasible it really was to pull data from it.

My current progress is a working auto-sig generator. Got some issues still, but i'm working on it

Will that dynamically update the sig with what gear a person has on their armory profile? Or is it a snapshot?

While toying with the armory, Ive wanted a Mozilla Searchplugin, and didnt find one, so I made two.

Theres one for each of the two versions of the armory, US and EU. To install these plugins, open the zip and copy the two XML files to "C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/searchplugins"
Works with Mozilla Firefox 2.0+, and should work with IE7 and Opera as well, if I could be bothered to work out how to install them
The icon for the searchplugins is the one from the Blizzard Wow boards.

Known issues:
Submitting an empty query gives an error page.

Same for BDF, but it does warn that it's untested for spaced realms =)

Those of you who volunteered to be injected with praying mantis DNA, I've got some good news and some bad news.
Bad news is we're postponing those tests indefinitely. Good news is we've got a much better test for you: fighting an army of mantis men.
Pick up a rifle and follow the yellow line. You'll know when the test starts.

This armory thing is good, because it's very accurate, however it will never replace CT profiles, because CT has the ability so show more then one set of gear, like PVP or FR.

They're from Daggerspine, which was the server I transferred from back in January. Very very very good team, they had a WSG team that never lost a game, ever. In fact I believe they only were capped on 3 times in their entire history, and this was against many premades as well. I was kinda surprised to see such an outrageous record, but knowing their history... not really.

Sure it does because CT Profiles doesn't bother to update their site ever so its fallen to become worthless.

CTprofiles has to get with the times or its going to become obsolete real fast. I think their devs need to learn to prioritize their projects a bit better.

I suspect due to sheer volume that they moved the data the armory pulls from the live data to a cache, and if you've played the character very recently that cache is out of date. My main was inaccessible an hour after I logged out, but now it's up to date. The error message is just left over from when they didn't have cached data from characters that hadn't been played since the server reset
