You're not doing anything wrong. Your data probably hasn't been processed yet. I have an update running right now to prepare for the September contest which has caused no updates to be processed yet so far today. I may be later this evening before any data has been processed. If you still haven't seen any change in a day or so, let me know!

oh good to know. i just posted a thing about this in the bug forum, but it's good to hear that there is a reason for no updates being shown yet.

Still not updating my info

I uploaded several days ago, and again a day or two ago, both after I hit 60, but I still show no updates since 8/24.

Am I doing something wrong? I checked the Savedvariables.lua and it does show me as level 60 in the file.

Any thoughts or help would be appreciated! :)

Thanks

While a contest is nice and all, you may have lost sight of the bigger picture.

If you want peeps to rely upon your service and visit it often, data needs to be kept up-to-date.

Sorry to be blunt, but holding up updates for a contest to see whom updates the most is kind of ironic now isn't it?

Push the updates through, push the contest back if you don't have the tracking tools in place.

Jebus, I woulda thought a day would be no big deal! THat being said, the update process is going right now and will be running non-stop until it catches up with the backlog.

You've created a monster, now you have to keep it fed :-)

Actually, it seemed like 2 days to most folks because the same data, for my server, was here for 1st and the 2nd. (ie: matched data I collected on the 31st).

I run a daily "stats" post where I post a few stats garnered from your site, and this is 2 days I personally could not post.

Keeping the beasties fed is a lot of work :-)

BTW, having a contest is a good idea, the issue is that idea needs to get carried on some of the WoW news outlets to reach a broader audience.

Hehe, I was asking primarily because I had several people tell me to update my sig....and I couldn't until the backlog data caught up! :)

And yeah, I saw the same info from the 31st and still do today (9/2). My luck to start using the mod the day you hold the updates for the contest. :shock:

Great Mod, love the site, and keep up the good work!

Looks like too many uploads clogging up the system.

I uploaded a file yesterday at noon and it still has not been processed (8:45 a.m. CDT)
