GAC Data collection tools should be stopped.

The idea behind it is to allow you to save your own previous GAC battles so you know what worked well and what didn't in the future if you come up against someone with similar rosters and modding. The creator said he's thinking about, but doesn't think CG would like that and might shut him down if he allowed people to access that information. (Which is probably true). So for now, it seems like it's just something you could do yourself if you wanted to keep track of your previous GAC matches, but the bot will do it for you so you can see it easier.

so much drama by folks not even knowing how it works or what it actually does ...

Folks like to jump on things even tho they don’t know what it is. Lol

This goes along the lines of my TW tools that guilds use. It helps you collect information about your own GAC History and your opponents, using only data that was available to you. It is no different than recording your matches in excel or some type of spreadsheet tool. It is just a record keeping system that helps streamline that process. It is not sharing or aggregating information that you did not collect yourself.

Just wanted to make that important distinction.

I still think it takes some fun out.

Though I don't really have serious reservations about my next opponent knowing what I set for the last match. Because what I set depends so much on their roster. Though, from what you said, that's not what's going on here.

My only issue with someone I don't know posting my previous defenses is that they will gain a picture of my tendencies vs. certain types of teams. They could mod to counter that. That might not be out right cheating, but it's not in the spirit of fair play.

That's not even what's happening. Two separate things. This service allows you to record your own history. Nothing more. Use excel if you want. It's the same.

The 2nd item, is another discord server. That should be the complaint if any.

That's why I brought it up. Way worse. And way sadder.

Shoot from the hip - ask questions later.

You sure that's how it goes? I thought it was shoot from the hip, punch it in the face, and walk away without asking any questions for fear you might actually learn something.

Close, it's a slap, not a punch.

There's a discord dedicated to sharing screenshots of your opponent's D with the rest of the discord.

But your tool does collecting MY data - ID or something?
