Hi,

Raw Log Browsing System is Live now.


About the Raw Log Browsing System(RLB):
RLB expression editor is a free text control able to parse SQL like where clause.
RLB currently does not have a wizard UI to auto generate the expression. You write the expressions in a similar way that you tell someone what to do, well sort of.
RLB has no limitation of row count thought you can see 100 at a time, you can traverse from the start to the end of the fight raw logs.


RLB consist of three panes:
- Upper Pane: This pane hold the legend of all available Contexts.
- Left Pane: Will show only if you're logged in, this pane let you save/update/delete Expression Presets to your Private Preset Library or to Your Guild Preset Library
- Lower pane: The actual Expression Editor where you enter your code.

What is a Context
A context is an abbreviation for something you may look for in the Raw Log, like: Source Unit Name, Spell, get all Hostile Units, get all failed Dispels and many more.
An expression may include a single context or many of those which you decide how to relate one to each other by using logical operators.

Examples:
- Get all source friendly units missed melee events:
[s_friendly] and [miss_melee]

- Get all player's 'ImAlwaysDispeling' dispels:
[s_name] = 'ImAlwaysDispeling' and ([dispel] or [dispel_failed])

- Get all players died from defile:
[t_friendly] and [killed] and [spell] = 'Defile'

- Get all stacks information about Mystic Buffet for player 'IdidNotGetAbove5Stack'
[t_name] = 'IdidNotGetAbove5Stack' and [aura_all_applications] and [aura_all_removals] and [spell] = 'Mystic Buffet'

- Get all Damage taken from targets with names starting with 'Shamb' (take notice that like is case sensitive and ilike is not)
[t_friendly] and [dmg] and [s_name] ilike 'shamb%'

- Get all CC's done to a Valkir with Spawn ID-35876
[t_spawn_id] = 35876 and [spell_cc]

- Get all Dispels done to the Tanks between '2010-12-1 10:21:22' and '2010-12-1 10:21:52'
[t_tank] and [dispel] and [time] between '2010-12-1 10:21:22' and '2010-12-1 10:21:52'

- Get all DPS and Healers whom agroed:
([t_dps] or [t_healer]) and [dmg_melee]

- Get only the dispels from Pally healers:
[s_paladin] and [s_healer] and [dispel]

Note: At this point, if you enter an invalid expression, RLB will not tell you what exactly is wrong but only a general error message.
Although I'll be addressing that in the future, This is what you might want to check out If you get errors:
1) Check that you use Valid context Names, you'll need to include the Brackets([]) too.
2) Check that you enter a valid value to a mandatory Value Context such as [spell] (It has to be [spell] = 'some spell name' or [spell] in ('spell name 1', 'spell name 2')).
3) Check that the logical operator are in place. write something like [t_friendly] [dispel] will result in an error. Should be: [t_friendly] and [dispel]
4) Time values must be fully qualified with year-month-day hour:minutes like '2010-12-1 10:21' (seconds and milliseconds are optional)
5) Check that your expression does not include words like: delete, select, drop, create, update and such. this is due to monitoring SQL Injections.
Raidlogs will reject any expression with such content.

This is just an introduction post, I'm sure that people will be very creative in what they can get out of it.

Hi,

Now this actually looks interesting and useful, have to check this out at some point. Dispel only has one L though, if you're going to use that in the syntax :P

Hi,

The new in-fight ranking system is now live.

Basically this ranking system will give the viewer an instant indication to evaluate all raiders for a compilation of performance fields
presented by a single rank using the following algorithm:

Indications:
* Player uptime
* Player Output - base on their role
* Player Effective Output per second
* Player Mechanics Faults Times
* Player Mechanics Faults Damage Taken
* Players Offensive Utilities usage(times)
* Players Defensive Utilities usage(times)
* Deaths

How the ranks are being calculated:
* All indication gets normalized to the highest in their group.
* Output indication gets normalized to their respective role highest, so tanks and healers have relevant output normals.
* All Normals are than being summed for each player to represent the final scoring vector.
* All scores are then being distributed by a 6(ranks) window distributer.
