On further review:

The temporary workaround that's in place right now will probably clear your supergroup info rather than updating it.

I like my supergroup page as much as anyone, so I promise we are looking into it.

Yeah, whatever it was, sorry to hear you're moving to another server, Gemini.

You are correct. The Supergroup designations you currently see were previously added by Glycerine and/or HeroStats tracking characters. At the moment there isn't any way to manually add those. We'll see what we can do about that, but in the meantime your SG can still be added if you fire up HeroStats long enough to send an update to CIT. (At least, that should do the trick.)

Check to see if it's the True to the Last badge. (More info.)

We've been having some serious issues with the prerequisite logic that was put in place a while back since I18 introduced alignment switching. Upgrades are in work, but until we can roll those live, we have to do what we can to work around the prerequisite logic.

Wait, what? Did I read that right? Am I the last person to learn about this?

Now, we don't hate BadgeHunter. (No, really, we actually specifically discussed the fact that we don't hate them in the meeting we had this past weekend.) That's not to say that we don't feel like maybe we have a certain sense of friendly competition. But that's what makes us want to keep improving the Titan sites rather than letting them just sit there and stagnate.

On the Account Overview stats, only ten entries are displayed under each set category. If you have 12 characters with 12 different primary sets, 2 won't show up.

Any chance that's why you don't see the Pain Domination and Shield Defense sets?

I'm not signing anyone up for code I'm not responsible for.

Sentinel detects character name, global ID, server, zone, origin, archetype, alignment, experience level, XP, inf, primary set, secondary set, epic/patron set, bio text, and badges earned for tracking purposes. It also has a Day Job calculator and the ability to create a Mids' data chunk from your character's current build so that you can import that directly into Mids' planner.

HeroStats doesn't have the Mids' export feature, Day Job calculator, and doesn't detect alignment or (I think) zone, but can detect all of the other things Sentinel can. (Exception: HeroStats relies on messages that appear in your chat tabs to track badges, so it still requires /settitle binds for tracking large numbers of badges. Sentinel will grab all of your badges in one shot if you open your personal info window.)

Sentinel was designed with a small footprint in mind, so it only tracks what can be recorded (or will soon be able to be recorded) on CIT to keep resource consumption to a minimum. HeroStats, on the other hand is more of a statistical analysis tool and is able to track a lot of additional things like prestige earned, enemies defeated, average damage output for each power, total damage output/hour per power, XP/hour, average power accuracy, number of times you've activated each power, recharge times, damage received per hour, etc. In order to do all of that, HeroStats requires a couple orders of magnitude more memory and a bit more processing power.

Long story short (too late):

Sentinel: compact, bare bones, very good for character tracking without eating system resources, not recommended for in-depth analysis of character performance, has the Export button

HeroStats: much bigger, detects/displays a much larger set of information, recommended for in-depth analysis, still needed if you want to track on BadgeHunter, probably not your best bet if you're only interested in tracking characters on CIT or concerned with resource consumption, no Export button

Well, there aren't actually any log files to look at. (HeroStats doesn't use log files either, by the way. And since Glycerine was built off of the HeroStats DLLs, it also didn't use log files.)

At this time, there aren't any plans to release the source code. The Glycerine code wasn't ever made publicly available, so that's not anything new. The same can be said for Mids' planner, for that matter.

Nah, I don't think anyone will take that the wrong way. I think we're all a little protective of our systems (or should be, at least). So, I understand where you're coming from.

But from the development perspective, this wasn't an open-source project and a lot of time and effort has been spent on getting it working. It's understandable that a developer working on a project that like that doesn't wants someone else to come along, copy the code they slaved over, slap a new name on it, and call it their own work.

Nope. Not mistaken.

HeroStats will continue to work for BadgeHunter since it also exists outside of the Titan Network (not that we don't occasionally work with HeroStats). No change there.

Sentinel, on the other hand, does not report badges to BadgeHunter. Glycerine didn't do that either, so that's not really a change.

I still think the return of the Cathedral of Pain trial was a perfect excuse for a new Rularuu Invasion event. I just barely missed out on that one when I started playing.

But I'm not complaining about a Rikti Invasion. Been a while since we've seen one of those in full-swing.
