Just a suggestion for Chip V and all the other techs. Your scripts and tools are not only very useful but have real value as well. I am sure that most members of this site that use these tools would be willing to pay a reasonable amount for the services. I am admittedly ignorant of how these tools are linked to the sight in the actual scripting but it seems to me there is a way to make it worth your time.
All skills are valuable. well most of them anyway.

Then again I could be way off base in his case.
Way off base is right.
Not way off base at all, I'm afraid, Bruce, I would like to just leave it at that.

Who's complaining they can't play without it? It's just a useful tool. But to be honest, the code is still huge and hard to get into, at the moment I think it's easier to just start over, even though there are some good ideas in the tool.
Thanks for the update sherkaner, it's linked to the site via game finder..maybe lack could look into this and make it available for everyone. It's such a great tool

Lack & the admins should not be focusing on advertising and trying to get new members, instead they should be focusing on making the already existing members happy and listening to the people who drive the site forward... tournament hosts, mapmakers, clans, and yes, script makers. Almost all of the content on CC is made by the community, so it's a very bad idea to piss those people off.
I just wish I knew how to code as I would be in there working hard as for everyone. My abilities with computers is good but not in the area I need. I appreciate all the work you guys are doing. You make this site awesome for everyone and I know you are doing your utmost to help. I personally thank everyone who is writing scripts, especially you sherkaner
I miss chip, but his shoes and they are big are being filled..thankyou all and I look forward to using the outstanding map rank in the future.

As most in the thread have discovered, a basic self-map rank doesn't quite work for calculating unique defeats for the speed medals. To get around this, instead go to the Game Finder screen, fill in your username and check all speed game variations.

what exactly is the hard-on over maprank anyhow? it is mildly entertaining for sure.. but if it disappeared, I'm not sure what the big deal is.. maybe someone could tell me why they find it so important...
