Yes!
Finally all the annoyances caused by evil teachers and retarded class mates (Don't take it personally if you ever visit this site, but I think that most of you miserably fail at life :hyper: ) are history, allowing me to concentrate my whole energy on making money and of course some scripting for your pleasure. :boogie:

There's also an updated version of the IMDB script (download v1.13), which addresses some issues with movie name resolutions.
It relies on HTTP package version 2.7 (TCL 8.5.2 or above) - so do NOT update if you are on an earlier version.

Update: Fixed google.tcl and the imdb.tcl rating issue.

Cheers

Hi folks,

first of all, I want to apologize for not adding any news in the past year, I couldn't be arsed writing stuff because I think you don't care anyway. :-)
However, I'm going to publish some more news soon, although I've got no idea what content to put in those.. :P
Well, what else did happen? I'm almost done with school, so far, only one examination left on Wednesday. Hopefully you'll keep your fingers crossed for me..! :)

And as usual, if you got some ideas for applications or scripts but no skill, leave me a message and I'll consider helping you out!
Cheers, Daniel :chao:

Laziness...

As some of you might have noticed, I've updated several scripts in the past days. I'm just far too lazy to write a new entry for every single one, which is causing the lack of news on this page.
Some recently updated scripts are: news, tinyurl, countryban, banlist, dictionary..

Cheers

3D Gamers query (3dgamers.tcl v1.0)

Mood:
Malevolent
Hi! A friend of mine wanted me to write a 3DGamers.com query script, similar to the IMDb one - only difference is this one works for game titles instead of movies.
Considering the fact that there's no such script yet, I decided to write one. It's available for download on the Projects page.

Usage:
  • -3dg <game title> Receives game information from 3DGamers.com and displays them to a channel.

Requirements:
  • http package (comes with tcl)

Hi, some small code hobbits just uploaded a new version of statistics.tcl (v3.0). Most parts were rewritten from scratch, and some minor bugs got fixed. The -top10/-top20 triggers are replaced by -ranking, which is a more powerful command and -stats (former -stat) now shows the user's current rank in the channel aswell. 8)

Usage:
  • -stats -toggle Either activates or deactivates the script on a channel.
  • -stats [user] Shows information about you or a user (works only for other nicks when you are op on a channel).
  • -ranking [offset] [smilies|words|lines|letters] Shows a ranking list of the most active chatters, defaults to words.

Requirements:
* Optional, only required if you want to recognise users by their authname, instead of using their hostname.

Enjoy.

Since the server of ugug.co.uk seems to have some really bad stability problems in the past few days, I decided to move completely to ugug.org.

There shouldn't be so much downtime anymore.
Enjoy!
