Yes Demon Hunters are live

Eleven minutes after Blizzard tweets the realms are up.

US - Akama a low population realm has 98 censused Demon Hunters (Alliance)..
i.e. they go straight to the final 15 part name selector.

Census runs are going to be much longer duration for awhile.

at the 20 minute mark Horde side had about one half the number of Demon Hunter compared to Alliance.
However on this Connected realm set (three realms) nearly half of the Horde DH had already hit level 100. (Alliance had none at the 11 minute mark)
Correction I hadn't gotten to level 98 yet when I started this post.. Horde is now up to 454 DH in levels 98 ,99 & 100.
I sent Metalbeast a copy of my data file, as a sample for checking his display side of the site changes.

He said he hoped to have some if not all (probably not all) of the display changes live later this week.
I looked at the existing code again for Census.php and it is as I remember very not nice.

In game I only have to display either Alliance or Horde, but on site Metalbeast has to handle either and both, it makes the code a tad complex.

Gone for now are the days of 30-40 realms in a sitting.

Currently averaging less then 3 realm/factions per hour.. on realms that are listed as LOW population.

And I have started running into no warning Disconnect storms...
five DC in last 10 minutes.

Speaking of DHs...

The site isn't up to date, in regards to displaying them, right?
Or am I doing something wrong?

That is true.. the site is not ready to display the DH data..

In fact I accidentally discovered a problem with processing the data updates.
Not a oh no we lost the data... just a oops, that won't let us display the data without a fix.

I expect Metalbeast fixed that problem this morning before he started his work day.

Splendid...

Happy, that it's only display that isn't working

As long as data is intact etc etc, everything else is minor

And I just realized something else is displaying incorrectly...
the displayed NEW and Updated character counts on the users page is for some oops reason
adding the correct numbers to the entries for the last update.

This is why our counts are going astronomical.

I send at email to Metalbeast to let him know about this mistake..
I expect like a lot of my CensusPlus quick updates this might have been a typo oops.

Don't be surprised if the count adjusts downward to more rational numbers.
