MouseTracker

**alpha** · 11-14-2003, 01:44 PM

MouseTracker

I know, I know. It's another one. It keeps track of the distance your mouse travels (in metres and kilometres), and the number of left/right clicks.

I have created the team and submitted a couple of times, even if nobody else bothers. I think we could easily shoot up the rankings in this project, though

The stats update as submissions are made, as far as I can see. I guess you could call that kinda-realtime.

**the-mk** · 11-14-2003, 02:01 PM

It is only for windows? Isn't it?

I'll visit their webpage and perhaps I'll give it a try...

**alpha** · 11-14-2003, 02:10 PM

Yup, Windows only.

I actually don't think I would have bothered installing the client if Ars didn't have a team

Come on, let's show our rivals how its done.

**the-mk** · 11-14-2003, 02:12 PM

I still wait for their registration confirmation....

**alpha** · 11-14-2003, 02:23 PM

I was actually able to login and fully use the client before I clicked the link in the activation email.

Edit: I see you on the stats now

**the-mk** · 11-14-2003, 02:26 PM

OK, I'm there... had to install that MSINET.OCX and now it runs!

I'm on Team Free-DC and submitted about 2.45 m

Sweet little icon in the taskbar!

Can anyone combine the features of Tiny Key Counter and this mouse tracker? That would be the greatest thing!

**alpha** · 11-14-2003, 02:30 PM

Indeed, it IS a pain to have to run so many different clients for the different features. One single client that counted keystrokes, mouse clicks, mouse scrolls and mouse distance travelled would be awesome.

I would like to see one of the keystroke counting projects come up with a way to calculate the distance your hands travel when typing, assuming the user is on a QWERTY keyboard (or have plugins/configurability for other layouts). That would be a little more interesting

**the-mk** · 11-14-2003, 03:53 PM

There is something odd at the mousetracker stats:

Facts:
- Alpha, you've sent 1 km 976 m 84 cm.
- I've sent 0 km 108 m 93 cm.
- We are only two users on Team Free-DC at the moment.

How can the sum of the Team Distance be 2 km 416 m 69 cm?

If I add the two distances, they are 2 km 85 m and 77 cm, so what's wrong there?

AND: yes, it's a pain for me too, to have multiple clients to count all those things

**alpha** · 11-14-2003, 03:58 PM

Yeah, I noticed that too. No idea. There is a forum on the website, someone may have already mentioned it as a bug.

**the-mk** · 11-14-2003, 04:03 PM

I've posted that bug in their forum and I've sent them a bug report...

I want to know what they say about it...

**the-mk** · 11-15-2003, 08:24 AM

I can't connect to their project website right now. What's up?

**alpha** · 11-19-2003, 05:40 AM

Well, we've creeped up to 92nd position already. We're up to 5 users:

alpha
the-mk
Fozzie
Thor-2
dp

Welcome everyone

How about anyone else? Anarchy? If you mouse as much as you type, we'd be flying by now

**Anarchy99** · 11-19-2003, 05:49 AM

I heard that alpha

I will see if I like it this afternoon

**Fozzie** · 11-19-2003, 07:01 AM

as my account wouldn't activate. They were pretty quick to get it sorted too.

**the-mk** · 11-19-2003, 10:02 AM

I think we need to move that thread into the key-counter-section of this forum... and rename the key-counter-section into something usefull... i.e. key-counting and mouse-tracking or something like that

And: Welcome to all the newbes in this team!

Sounds like a good idea to me, now that the team has been somewhat populated.

We're up to 80th position with a total of 9 users.

Starting to wish I hadn't said anything about Anarchy now, he's hot on my tail

**pfb** · 11-20-2003, 07:05 AM

Slowly increasing - although it seems it doesn't send every hour as it should...had about 4 hours worth built up this morning before I forced-sent it

/me wonders if I can charge my clients for mouse-travel

**the-mk** · 11-20-2003, 10:34 AM

A special welcome for Supp!

Our team has now 10 members!

I fell down from the second place to the fourth

But the team-ranking increased to rank 71!!!

My fingers want to write another stats-page for that new mouse-tracking-stats!

__________

And a letter to Santa Claus (who's coming soon

):

Dear Santa Claus!

I want a programm that counts my keystrokes, mouseclicks,
mousescroll and tracks my mouse-moves (a combination of
TKC and BMT). And I want to have some marvellous stats
therefore! The whole year I kept out of mischief and I really
want a tool like that! Please dear Santa Claus! Please! Thanks!

Yours
the-mk

**Fozzie** · 11-20-2003, 02:52 PM

That cannot be right.

Anarchy99 above me in a stats table.

I demand a recount.

Taking advantage of me being away on social engagements eh?

Ha well take that I say back and clicking now.

**alpha** · 11-20-2003, 03:07 PM

/me looks way, way, way down

/me waves to everyone

**the-mk** · 11-20-2003, 03:24 PM

Hey man!

We are still climbing and climbing!

Rank 67 at the moment!

Great job everyone!

**pfb** · 11-20-2003, 03:32 PM

any ideas why my overall distance is less than my team distance:

pfb team = 2 km 308 m 19 cm, overall = 2 km 331 m 28 cm

/edit - now they're both 2 km 308 m 19 cm

**Supp** · 11-20-2003, 08:56 PM

Thanks for welcome, I made almost 1 km while editing lone css file

**the-mk** · 11-21-2003, 02:51 PM

Welcome Wirthi!

Now we have 11 members!

Wow! We climbed up to rank 56!!

**wirthi** · 11-21-2003, 04:23 PM

Hi,

welcome everybody at this new great counter project.

Please don't invent any new counter projects! Now I've three projects (Orca, TKC, BMT) running on my desktop. There is almost no place left in my traybar for other ones

Wirthi

**the-mk** · 11-21-2003, 06:12 PM

Wirthi, you are right! We don't need no other counters

I've got the same three counting/tracking-prgramms also in my traybar....
__________

And if you look into the Project Orca stats, we can see, that only a four people are active: DP, PY222, you and me. Our sisters stopped that client and I think about stopping it too, because we have already a keycounting-feature in the TinyKeyCounter-tool... AND: there is no official Free-DC-Orca-stats-site, where all joined members are listed, so I think about stopping that stats too... it makes no sense to me...

How do you think about it?

hmmm...not too far to go

**pfb** · 11-24-2003, 10:20 AM

The Mousetracker site seems to be down - and I so wanted to see me take 1st place

/edit - seems to be back (sorry Alpha

)

**the-mk** · 11-25-2003, 10:02 AM

Wow!

We are doing great on BeWeS MouseTracker!

We are now on rank 47 atm

Great job everyone!

**Fozzie** · 11-25-2003, 02:36 PM

and lo did the Foz take 2nd place.

woohoo

and we are 44th now but the gaps to get higher are widening.

Could be time for some pimpage for some more mousers.

Hmm .. gotta install the client on my sisters machine. She's not using it very often though but every mouse-move helps

We'll improve our rank but as Fozzie said we'll need more members to reach the highest positions.

**Fozzie** · 11-27-2003, 03:30 PM

sure does wonders for my accuracy training.

Nothing is finer than gibbing A99.

**pfb** · 11-29-2003, 08:40 PM

If 1st place = 3 points, 2nd place = 2 points, 3rd place = 1 point:

Code:

             Distance			
1		2		3	
anarchy99	fozzie		pfb	



		LMB			
1		2		3	
pfb		anarchy99	wirthi


		RMB
1		2		3	
Scoofy12	alpha		pfb

so:

=1) Anarchy99 = 5 points
=1) pfb = 5 points
3) Scoofy12 = 3 points
=4) alpha = 2 points
=4) Fozzie = 2 points
5) wirthi = 1 point

**alpha** · 11-30-2003, 03:39 AM

I must like using secondary fire on UT more than I thought

**pfb** · 11-30-2003, 02:18 PM

anyone else having a problem with sending results? mine keeps saying 'connection problem' and disables the Send option for ~1 hour...

**Anarchy99** · 11-30-2003, 02:41 PM

I just named my bots Fozzie

and the hate grows another notch

my points have gone without a hitch ?

try closing the tracker and opening it again, thats what I do

**wirthi** · 11-30-2003, 03:05 PM

Yep, same problem here.

Take a look at their homepage:

Quicknews: There are some problems to login on the client. We will solve this problem today or tomorrow.

Wirthi

**pfb** · 11-30-2003, 06:51 PM

noticed that shortly after you posted - ho hum

**wirthi** · 11-30-2003, 06:55 PM

Problems are fixed now. Sending works again.
