Yeah, mine hasn't worked since I got the new firefox. Kinda sucks, map rank is a cool feature. On the other hand, I guess I should say thank you to whoever made it, for the time that it did work. So, thank you. :D

lackattack pissed chipv (creator of map rank among other great scripts and tools) and he decided to quit CC in protest.
hence none of his tools will receive updates and eventually all of them might stop working.

That's what I've been telling anyone who listens... 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.

Map rank is gonna be harder to fix afaik. But it was very interesting to see how ppl fixed that bug/problem while I was on vacation :)

But atm it's mainly Dako and me who know how greasemonkey works in detail, so it's only a few players who are willing to and can maintain scripts.

but if he quits in disgust he forces lack to implement them as site functions whereas before lack could always say they were available so i will devote my time to something else.

Unless someone decides to pick it up it will soon not be of any use. It's the add on I'll miss most! It's a very handy script. Kudos to chipv for creating it, and kudos to anyone who tries to pick it up.

You are wrong. chipv's departure had nothing to do with lackattack.

Think it was just about lack of time if I remember it correctly.

well if someone create scrip who need to pay to use,then lack will be very interesting to implement fast.
Its all ready not funcion map rank for doubles,triple, quads, next will probably been Tournament map rank, and soon all other will be not possibile to use. Great script will die :(

Naah, I need my map rank too (I actually missed dubs/trips/quads 2 weeks ago), so I won't let it die.

Since no one else said it, I will: We are aware that there are issues with the latest versions of map rank. The Tech Team is attempting to work on it, however it will most likely take some time to get everything complete. I know I haven't been of much help on this particularly, but I certainly do thank and appreciate those who are working on it (I won't name names, but you know who you are).

are you sure? if i remember correctly he said something about lack's lack of involvement in supporting those that help develop the site but he didn't want to go into more detail.

Way off base is right.

I am very saddened to hear this regardless of the reasons. I like chip a lot, and his programs even more.

I was wondering what happened to the alternate scoreboard, and I was hoping my link was wrong, or that it was being revamped.

Chip, if your listening... I will gladly subscribe to map rank and Im sure others will follow, if that helps. Im sure thats a messy thing to bring up, but I myself am not even sure I can play without map rank at this point.

I don't know what happened, but there is something. Otherwise you don't lock your own tool-threads overnight, and remove every file from that alternate scoreboard-server. To me, it looks like there was some argument, and ChipV just decided to not support CC any longer in any way (whether it was just a straw or not, I don't know). So I don't think he's listening.

I think it was about jpc.

To get back on subject, the link I posted leads to a slightly altered version of map rank. It's still a work in progress, but at least the doubles/trips/quads thingy works again atm.
