Do people think it looks good?  Is it too much?

[rrenaud]

No credit to me, this is all David Lu's work.

It looks great. The only suggestion I would have is to say what the achievement means without having to click, and have clicking on the achievement show the specific games when the player achieved that goal.

[jonts26]

Seconded. Maybe just reinstate the old hover text with the descriptions on them?

[Kirian]

Thirded (for philosophyguy).  It's just a bit too big as is.

Now if only the code would pick up multiple achievements for one game... so many things I don't have due to that.

Related because it only started happening with this update:  when you're on a player page and try to navigate to another player page using the button at the top, the page tries to redirect to localhost.  Bit of trouble there.

[rrenaud]

I (think) I fixed the localhost bug.  David redid the goals UI again to make it more compact.

I love what CR provides. Are there costs involved? I mean if you have to shell out a little to host the site and code, maybe you could post a pay-pal link and we can all chip in and help you absorb those costs a little?

Something must be slightly messed up with the achievements.  On my main page, it does not show that I have gained the "Crash" achievement, but if you open up the one game where I got "Archon", it shows that I got "Crash" in that game.

Edit: Looking at it a bit more, I the Archon game does not show up in my list of Slams either.

Most of the cost was in buying a desktop machine with 16 GB of ram so I could mostly serve the game database from RAM (I think it's started to hit disk now sometimes, and it's slow ).  The machine is hosted in my tiny apartment in NYC, using my personal net connection.

Google pays me way too much and I live a kind of minimalist life (no car, no tv, no desire for a big house or luxury goods, etc), so I have more money than I need.

Reporting bugs, sending me patches, maybe pressuring the official version when it comes out to release game logs, that stuff will help councilroom.  But it's definitely not in need of money.

[rrenaud]

There is a known bug with the goals and not getting credit for all of them on your player page.  I'll fix it eventually.

[ChaosRed]

Cool, I'll be sure to lobby the real thing about logs, (when it releases) to help keep CR alive.
