Hi all,
I've been working on a userscript that creates additional tabs in battle.net SC2 profile pages which provide extra information and stats that some people may find useful or at least somewhat entertaining.
This is for your web browser, not your sc2 game client. This does not modify any game files, it's basically an add-on for your web browser.
What does it do?
The userscript adds either 1 or 5 extra tabs to the left panel, depending on whether you're viewing a random player's profile or your own. For other players, you can view a quick summary of their recent match history. For your own profile, you can view summaries of your friends' recent matches, see what maps are most popular among your friends, compare ladder points and leagues with your friends, and more. You can also now see ladder points with bonus points removed.
What does it look like?
A full description, including screenshots, can be found here:

How do I install a userscript?

If you haven't been using userscripts to "power up" your web browser, you're missing out on a lot of things that could potentially make your life a lot easier. Google Chrome supports userscripts out of the box (just click the green Install button on that page). Firefox users need the Greasemonkey add-on. I've heard Opera supports it, as well as IE with a plugin, but I've never tried either one.
Extra help for Google Chrome users:

A final note of caution: you shouldn't install random userscripts from untrusted sources. And I guess I'm not exactly a "trusted" source to most people here. But the good thing about userscripts is that the entire code is in plain sight, so you or anyone here can examine it to see if it's trying to do anything suspicious. 
Update 05/30: Now you can also see 1v1 Ladder Points and 1v1 Adjusted Ladder Points (ladder points with bonus points removed) on the top of the profile next to the Achievement Points, as well as Adjusted Ladder Points for everyone in your friends list. (Thanks to Mendelfist and Not_That for their suggestions.)

Holy cow this is AMAZING. Thank you for that.
Totally recommend it. +1!

Nice job. I bet this will be quite valuable for pro's, i.e. looking at your opponents map scores in order to make a good losers pick.

Looks like a very nice addition to the battle.net profiles. I wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard considered doing something at least remotely similar to enhance the functionality of their profile pages.

THIS IS AWSOME however before i dl this is this against blizzards TOS? cuz if not ill forgo it even tho it is totally awsome just in case.
|
This is fucking amazing. ♥
|
is this allowed by Blizzard TOS?
kinda afraid to install these and then get banned
|
I don't see any reason for it not to be allowed, it is just gathering data and displaying it differently.

You mean you didn't read the TOS before accepting it? I am shocked and appalled!
I feel a HumanIcentiPad situation coming up in the close future for you, my man...

nice job, pretty sad that bnet 2.0 doesnt already provide this type of stat display. but then again why would u want stats like this when u have facebook integration.............
|
Facebook integration > Stats imo.
I am wondering too though, could this be violating TOS? I hope it's not. :[
|
Wow this is purely AWESOME. Really good job man, honestly I think these are the type of stats that should have been available in the game itself from the very start.
|
nope..not again the ToS as far as I can tell. You are not modifying anything in the game itself. All you are doing is displaying data that blizzard's site already gives you.
Violating ToS has do with anything that modifies the actual GAME or has an effect in the game and gives you an advantage. So things like:
- map hacks (duh)
- any tools that make you see things in the game you aren't supposed to
- macros from your keyboard that let you do things in the game with only one press

I LOVE this. I LOVE the match history stats tab, it's awesome. Brillant idea and execution.
One thing I would ask if I can, is to gather a little more data for that specific tab. I know I'm not supposed to keep track of my entire ladder life with this, but it'd be awesome to have a 50 or 100 games sample size instead of 25.
Checking while writing this I now realize only 25 last matches are displayed on bnet page, that's so bad, I don't know if there's any way you can retrieve more information. That would turn this awesome tool into a masterpiece from heaven.
