Hi,
how can it be, my whole UT-Stat has disappeared.
Only 2.1 hours have been left in summary.
Same case on the TCP-Stat.
My Name, or ID appears nowhere.
Am i a noob?
What is it?

hi Kobra,
yes I'am sure.
I've proofed all possibilities for name spelling, but that's all.

Take a look on the screenie.
I've changed nothing except for installing coco's cache extractor.
What's going on there?
I've been demoted to a noob.

Hi Skaarijscout!
First of all, I'm sorry to hear that!

Hmm, but I can't imagine that it has anything to do with it. It is possible that the name and password (and maybe the Player ID) are stored in the UT2004.ini (don't really know it). This file is modified by UT2004CacheExtractor if you set the "Cache Holding Time". But this is the only access that is made there and it just changes the line that starts with "PurgeCacheDays=" in the "[Core.System]" section. All other lines are copied as they are and the whole file is only exchanged with the new one if everything succeeded.
Moreover, I think that the stats are stored at the server from Epic. If they were stored locally, every player would be able to manipulate the data. So I can't think of a way that it could be my program's fault.
Hmm, I just took a look into the UT2004.ini and found that the data isn't stored there at all. Username and password for the stats are stored in the User.ini file which isn't used by my program at all.
So that can't be it!
Do you know if the Player ID displayed on your stats page is the same that you had before? Maybe, for some reason, a new account was created with the same name!? Player names aren't unique for stats logging. I know that, because I wanted to take a look at my stats and found several players named "Coco".
Coco.

Hi coco,
i've just checked the UT-Stat Side again.
No difference to yesterday. Groovy, there are no links for Example 'Recent Matches'.
There is nothing, only a few Numbers for the Stat.
You are right, all stats are stored on the Epic-Server.
- Change my name? No!
- Last Installation of UT2004? Nearly 10 month ago!
First 'they' have stolen my Stats, next 'they' will steal myself.
Maybee hijacking through some fanatic OpenSource-Municipality?
Hmm? the_kay? Their Leader?

Hi DAFrank,

Err changing your name does NOT mean new stats .. the stats are based on the player cuid and not the name / ip or anything else
