here is a folder of 23 929 user ids and what they have said in the last 631 711 FAF games.

this was parsed with askaholics tool and some custom python sciripting

From this data you can infer some useful information.

UserID is used, because unlike username, it does not change. The "notify" messages have been excluded.

like which players get fed the most mass
who uses the most AI taunts
who is the most toxic (probaly best to define toxic to a script, hard to do)

Unzipped size is ~ 120mb

all the user ids are in one folder, windows may struggle.

I plan to do more replay analysis including node graphs of who plays with who, who plays on what map,

correlation between:
map and rating
country and rating
map and country

I also plan an analyse the notify dataset (not included in this chat dataset) and get information on upgrade timings, of acu also per faction and all of them per rating group and map.

any others you can think of.

Please download yourselves and anaylse

I have downloaded a few thousand replays and used your python libary to parse all chat in them. 12MB of text was parsed for this.

I have quite a big text file for each FAF username. I know it would be better to use userID and I will in future things. Does anyone want this data?

The chat has been filtered to remove "notify" events and also "Units / Mass / Power sent"

I do plan to do some kind of node analysis on who plays with who next
who is associated with which map
association of maps with ratings

seems cloudflare R2 would be a good and very cheap service to use for this, as its static content. Easier than using a bittorrent client.

Can we get a sentons only fullshare que, given sentons is typically played with optimum balance now it would be used so much

I dont mean to have caused any legal trouble here, I was just interested in some data analysis. I should probably have started with things other than text chat first and gauge a response but text chat was the easiest for me to parse and make sense of.

from my perspective the information is already highly available in the replay vault publicly.

I do understand open source data can become sensitive when massed together.

Perhaps we need a disclaimer that replays and all information contained are available publicly? along with name history and rating history and anything else, ect? It has always been very obvious to me that they are but to others it may not be?

@meatontable What information can you extract here?

Relationship of unit experemental built to winning in next 10 mins would be good

@femtozetta there is nearly 15 million total replays

I have a python3 wget script that grabs the direct link and saves the replays, incrementally. It is rate limited to stop ddos but if anyone would like it here it is.

@tagada

A lotst game being boring to watch is definitley something to try and avoid, but I think to stop it being decided early and finished late, more players can gaurantee a more even split of map control

@H-master
This is very valid

Shards, Sentons isle, Hanna Oasis, Tithonium Chasma look more intresting for this reason.

Even just some showmatches on these maps would be nice. I will see If I can get some sentons players together on Sentons isle

Could you parse the replay of every game with an automated replay parsing tool @Askaholic that looks for the ctrl-K command of acu followed by another acu getting killed and game ending. Can your tool do that?

if you could extract this information it would give you a fix provided you rewrote how games are reported...
This would at least give you an idea of how many games this occurs in even if that is not the case

There are many good looking extra large maps out there, just rareley anyone over ~1200 rating playing them. The meta has yet to be established on most of these and I would like to see skilled people play them.

I propose a 2v2 or 4v4 full share tourney (4v4 team rating limited?) , as I dont think one has ever happened on maps this size before. I am sure sentons players would partake in a ratings limited 4v4 tourney

Gameplay on these maps tends can be intresting.

drops on islands are hard to spot due to size and hard to deal with instantly due to distance. This makes for intrresting play with who gets what island and how, and can end a player quickly if not spotted. Massed t1 scouts and early t1 radar everywhere are meta.

Gameplay early-mid to lategame revolves around air. The early lategame is where the navy gets involved making a difference with massed hoverflack, shields and battleships.

Nukes / NOVAX are frequent and always worth building.

large strat snipes are frequent and hard to stop due to size of area for them to come in and game ender class targets

omnis look rather small on these maps so there is so much more to the intel game, (and cybran air is significantly better than all others on large maps)

I feel that the paragon would need to be banned to make for intresting gameplay as on maps this large and with skilled players it would just be OP and the meta would revolve around rushing it, not good tourney viewing

would have to have a minimum cpu requirement
