Smallish feature request, but is there any way you could implement support for DDRecall the way that Groovestats and ZIV are supported? I think it's probably the most heavily used and well-organized score tracker for DDR.

Thanks either way!

Do people really still use that site? It hasn't had any updates for a long time; I thought everyone deserted it.

Anyway, I just added it as a profile feature like the others. Try it out! Smiley

Thanks! I don't play enough to use it heavily but the majority of people who have played DDR competitively at one point or another I think have profiles there. Mine is updated for Extreme and stuff  Angry

It was one of the most successful tracker sites, but due to the lack of attention it's been given, it's quickly falling into the same abandoned hole that DDR Freak did. Personally, I feel that ZIV is currently the top tracker site for DDR, but I don't have any proof to back that up.

I don't know if best vs. worst is really relevant. People are generally going to stick with whatever score tracker they started on, since porting all your scores to another website is a major pain.

Haha I remember years ago my score tracker for Extreme was my Camera and a notepad.....

I started on DDRecall (Ok, if you wanna get technical, I started on NNR.ca, but that's long dead) and I transitioned to ZIV because of a few reasons. Most notably, I now play on more machines than just DDR Extreme and DDRecall doesn't have SN2, X, or X2.

Yeah I guess that makes sense. I don't enjoy SN, SN2, or X, and I enjoy X2 but I'm not sure if I could take it seriously like Extreme because Extreme is a game that's beatable (AAAs on everything), whereas X2 isn't because of stuff like Valkyrie Dimension Oni. Which is the same reason I play ITG stuff I enjoy, but don't really play it for completion/to finish the game. So for scores, I only really care about 4th-Extreme, I guess.

The only concern there is that, without an admin actually looking at it from time to time, DDRecall could just topple over one day and that's that.  Since my scores are there and I don't play that much Extreme due to lack of playable machines nearby, I still haven't put in the effort to transfer either, but I do save a backup of my scores every so often just in case their database chokes and no admin can be found to restart it.

Also makes sense. When I played seriously, I used to periodically print my scores and then use the sheet when I played. Effortless and also gave me something to shoot for since I tend to forget which songs I've AAAd and which I haven't all the time. But I think I have pictures saved on my computer for all of them, so I'd only lose my non-AAA scores which is probably not that important for me? I don't know. Oh well.
