This chapter describes the web-based extension to AudioQuake; what it is, why it's here and how you can use it.

15.1. What is it?

The Stats and Servers website is part of the online community surrounding AudioQuake. As well as the community resources on the AGRIP Wiki, the Stats and Servers site exists to help you get more out of the game. By visiting the site, you can:

  • Track your progress as an AudioQuake player. Examine the statistics gleaned from your recorded frags when playing the game. These include your efficiency, kill ratio and overall rank.

  • Compare how you're doing to other players via the global ranking tables. these list the top AudioQuake players in a number of orders and over varying timeframes.

  • Find Internet games using a web-based server browser (as opposed to using the command-line tool QStat).

15.2. Quick Tour

When you visit the stats and servers site, you're presented with a number of choices on where to go. The main page lists the sections you can visit, providing a brief description of each one. The most important areas of the site fall under a few categories:

  • Pages containing global ranking tables, based on a number of criteria. They may be frags, efficiency, overall ranking or time-based (e.g. frags for the current day or month).

  • Detailed stats for each known AudioQuake player (accessed via global players list).

  • The active servers list.

  • Help and support in the form of a FAQ section.

You can skip to any section at any time by using the global navigation bar, which is present on most pages in the site.

15.3. Getting Your Stats Included

To get your stats included, all you need to do is play on any of the public servers that advertise themselves as logging stats. Most servers do this; some may not (because they're aimed at providing practice for new players, for example).
