Back from out of town! Huzzah.
Is there any way to get a hold of the Guildwork developers? Guildwork has started dropping characters and when I went to configure mine it said that FFXI Linkshell Community was down. Since we kinda knew, for many months, that would happen, shouldn't there be some sort of update or at least notification on GW about that?
I have access to the GW site code but not the plugin. GW is way way down on my list of priorities, but since I need to work on it in order to make AH work how I want it, it's about to get some love. It was dependent on the LSCOM in much the same fashion as AH has been, so all that needs to be extricated.

»I would like to see Guildwork being the primary mechanism for gauging the achievements and to see the Linkshell Community Profile completely abandoned. I am not sure how easy it would be for people to 'cheat' the system by showing items they did not really get, but those people could be banned from the ranking if they were caught doing it. While the ranking is in no way an actual gauge of player skill or achievements, it is nice to gauge our progress in some way against our peers.
But, if the ranking must go, that is fine. I really like the layout and organization of the achievements, though, and I like looking through the lists of other players that are ranked by having a lot of REALM weapons.
I have a new, cleaner, hopefully more relevant ranking system about 80% complete, but I need some GW changes to make it really work, so while I was sitting in airports/airplanes for 16 hours yesterday, I fixed the existing system and removed all of the LSCOM dependent code. It's been submitted to His Scraggness™ so hopefully it'll be deployed soon.
