So I finally got the level 70 in modern warfare 2. I have played 2 days and 7 hours with 6513 kills and 4832 deaths. Full stats are bellow if you want to see them

However, this game isn’t anymore as fun as it was when I first started playing this… Here is some reasons why.

Lack of dedicated servers is huge problem. It doesn’t make the game unplayable, but rather very annoying. It’s just so fun to see on killcam that you shot only 2 bullets, when you really have shot half of the clip to that guy that knifed you…

Then there is those well balanced weapons like grenade launchers and anything akimbo. This would be much better game without akimbo/grenade launchers. Akimbo shotguns  are especially annoying…

And finally, the last reason for this rage post, the idiots that this game has way too much. There is just way too many kids screaming on mics, cheaters with aimbots/wallhacks, campers, people that won’t speak English and spams the chat with characters that nobody understands, retarded hosts downloading stuff while playing…

Well, this was great game for a while, but now this feels just annoying…

Happy new year to everybody!

I don’t know why, but I love also all kind of stats. It’s just fun to have dozens of data and then analyze it with graphs and pie charts. Here is list of services that gives stats from various sources. I use all of them regularly.

• Google analytics – Nice stats of the website
• Woopra – Awesome realtime website stats tracking
• Feedburner – Nice feed subscribers/reach tracking
• Webalizer – Bandwith monitor provided by my webhost
• Hlstatsx – Most of my games are source games, so the Hlstatsx generates nice stats. (Open source version)
• Etqw stats site – The official stats site
• My own script that generates graphs from official ET:QW tracker
• Steamcommunity – Steamcommunity gives gametime stats and also very detailed stats for some games (tf2,l4d)
• Tweetstats – Very clean and nice stats for twitter usage
• Twitter grader – Another cool stats tool for twitter
• Twittercounter – Get graphs from followers
• Cloc/ohcount – Some stats from my programming
• Ohloh – Stats for almost every open source project. Code analysis.
• mon.itor.us – Just pinging my site and checking that it’s up and running
• Pisg – Stats from IRC
• Last fm – All of the music I listen is listed on last.fm Also see my history/progress graph generated from last.fm stats
• Wakoopa – Wakoopa tracks what apps I use and how much.

Ego is simple app for iPhone/iPod touch that displays many stats in one simple view. Ego supports couple of web stats systems. Google analytics is maybe the most popular stats tracking tool, so it is included. But Ego also supports Squarespace, Mint, Google pagerank, Feedburner and Twitter.

Configuring application is fast and simple. Application is mostly just beautiful list of all the stats. If you have multitiple websites, Ego is perfect way to check all the sites once.

I would like to have some more stats, like graphs and pie charts, but still this application is worth of the 1.5€

If you are addicted to stats I recommend to try this app.

To see this app in action, go to Ego app’s homepage. There is nice video of the app.

Ohcount and Count Lines of Code (CLOC) counts size of code project. Mostly these aren’t very useful applications, but it is fun to see that I have written 300 lines of code in couple of days.

Ohcount is used Ohloh to generate source code reports. I was disappointed to found that i can’t use Ohcount to scan whole history of my repository, it only scans current status of code.

CLOC is written in Perl and Ohcount in Ruby. It maybe little annoying to compile Ohcount from source, but it is much faster than CLOC. If you want something that is easy to install, take CLOC. But if you are going to analysis more often than once, try Ohcount.

Here is example output from CLOC:

Yep. There is some difference on results. I don’t know which one is more accurate.

I haven’t posted for a while because I have coded my main project. It isn’t public, but I will blog about it when it is ready. I try to blog more often.
