Arena Rating Addon Version 2

As some of you may know, i made an addon a while back called "Skirm" which rated skirmish arenas.

I'm updating it for WotLK under a new name with many new features

I was wondering if anyone had any feature ideas/requests, and who would be interested in helping test this?

Thanks,
Fea

To keep the records more reliable, maybe a way for it to only work if both teams have turned it on? Games against level 15s and winning isn't exactly cool.

SpaZ has raised a few eyebrows in the past
And when your with a specific partner and an option to turn on and off the rating counter, so you dont avoid random skirmishes because of the rating loss it may cause.

This is good but you should make it so that it will enable if both teams have it on and disable if the other team doesnt so you wont lose rating against teams without it, Also make a site so that it will be a global thing

What would be brilliant would be for it to upload the data somewhere on the web, or at least dump the data into a .txt (or whatever) file on your HDD

Maybe abit difficult to do....But; you could set up a database for the arena teams, so people can download and create their team; and some how sort out a rated system that would work? So basically the same system Blizzard use; but illegally

Ok thanks for the feedback.

Regarding the "only vs people who have the addon". There's a problem with this because you can't whisper people you're against in an arena, and you can't contact horde in anyway... so there's no way of being able to know if they have the addon.
Possible solutions: Reduce rating gain for lower level opponents (so you get hardly any rating from lvl 15s) or make it only rate if youre against lvl 19s.

Regarding the upload to a website, i'm afraid i'm not that skilled (can only make addons not actual programs). Also you're not meant to use programs that run in the background of WoW so.... :P

Regarding turning the rater off, i think this should be done before even zoning into the arena to stop people trying to turn it off depending on opponents.


A few features are:
Arena seasons (teams reset every 3 months).
Arena points (calculates points the same way as wow every week).
Also thinking of making your first team of each size "free" to create (each season) and then further ones require arena points (to stop people just creating a new team if they loose 1 fight).

this, or just make it so you can shut it off in game somehow, so before you enter an arena, if you are solo queueing you can just shut it off so you dont lose points.
