The Kingdom of the Emerald Hills

Hey Guys and Gals,

I've completely rewritten the TROLL app to work with ORKv3. I have to say working with an actually service makes development a lot easier versus doing a site scrape. The goal of the TROLL is to be fast and display basic information you need.

Now that this is done I have joined the ORK dev team and will be devoting some spare time to bug fixes and feature updates.

New features

Caching - Since data doesn't get updated every minute there is no reason to keep requesting it. To speed up page loads and cut down on requests sent to the ORK all requests are cached for 4 hours. So the more you and others navigate the quicker site response will be.

Missing old features:

Active/Inactive status - Currently there isn't a query setup on ORKv3 that is optimal for getting this information. I plan on adding it in the near future but will be leaving it off to keep from overloading the ORK with all of the extra requests it would take to display for every player on the list pages. That and the TROLL need to stay speedy

Knight's List - Pretty much the same as above, until a good query on the ORK is setup this will be pending.

Still at the same place: http://www.jrtaylor.com/troll

If there are any questions about how this is implemented shoot me a PM

Thank you Fog. This will make life much easier on the pm's!!!
