1. This is a very nice feature, enabling me to go back and learn from my mistakes.  Thanks, Fred, for this feature and thanks for the advice you offered.

2. Someone is bound to ask for stats to be calculated, such as cumulative IMP score, monthly IMP score, daily IMP score, offensive IMP score, defensive IMP score, etc. in terms of actuals and percentages.  This feature would enable players to see their own progress.  Since someone is bound to ask, I'll be the first to make this suggestion.

Hello,
It's something that Uday and I have talked about.  We would like to do it but there's far more considerations to this than just adding the capability for the software to crunch numbers.

The biggest one goes back to the long-standing debate about a ratings system.  With calculated stats it would become a defacto rating system with all of its problems.  Some of them are technical (as in numerous new accounts would be created for resetting one's stats), others would be social (I won't play with xxx player because their rating stinks).

It's also been thought of adding password protection to one's stats as a means of defending against the social ramifications.  This is more of a development issue than anything else.  I can't guarantee anything but I wanted to at least share some insight regarding this - it's been on our minds quite a bit!

Take care,
John
