Global BZFlag Login

To avoid misuse of the login credentials of your global BZBB account, please use the following link that will redirect to the BZstats site after successful login.
Welcome at bzstats.strayer.de!
This is the first version of BZstats. After a relative successful test of the preceding proof of concept, this web page is primarily designed to find BZFlag servers and players on the Internet without using the BZFlag client.
Beside the implementation of the most active leagues you can also find some other information here, like common BZFlag related stuff and statistics for servers and players. Those will become much more during the next time.
All used data sources for this web page are publicly-available and automatically kept up-to-date. There's no direct connection between this web page and the project of the game BZFlag. So notices and suggestions for improvements are very welcome but (finally) I'll be the one who decides if they will be realized or not.
For further information about the BZstats or the use of the web page, have a look into the FAQs. If this isn't helpful or detailed enough you can send me an email.
Have fun... ;o)

Database issues

During the last days you may have experienced some responsiveness and/or availability issues for bzstats.strayer.de and 1vs1.bzflag.net which was due to massive load on the database because of web page calls by web scrapers/crawlers/spiders/bots that respect neither the content of robots.txt nor a gentle request behaviour. The most affecting ones have been blocked that night.
A presumed secondary damage by these request-floods had been inconsistent database files. This issue took a while to be observed. Therefore, bzstats.strayer.de lost around 7hrs of player data.

Right now, everything looks working fine again. ;o)

Well, a whole lot has happened the last days. Unfortunately, all of that has been maintenance work. So you won't notice anything. :D

Let's summarize:
> 1vs1 League Tournament für 2024 (20th Anniversary!) endet and it's BZstats integration has been built back.
> The FAQ section has been updated.
> The BZinfo section contains a lot of general information. The data gathering backend scripts had been disfunctional for serveral years and got an update to deliver up-to-date information again.
> Similar to the BZinfo scripts, the script that updates GeoIP data (that allow to map a server to a country) didn't work until a few days ago.

To be true, the maintenance work wouldn't had happen if Bertman wouldn't have noticed that the GeoIP data were no longer correct and if he wouldn't have talked with Kierra about that who sent me a message. Thank you for the motivation. ;o)
