I figured out what was wrong; it is fixed in new version (Which is already online).

I got it to work, thanks ^-^

But is it supposed to vote for you? Cause the prompt just ran and didn't do anything but show wall of text.

What does wall of text say?

The guilds, the HvH teams and their ratings, and it looks through each month. It also says who I should vote for, but doesn't automatically vote for me.

Wonderful; just one more question then. Do I have to re-download the application to get the new version?

Yes, you do. After all automatic updates for this kind of stuff are no-no

Make sure that you supply correct username, password and user_id.

Does it end with error or does output look basically like what Nightow pasted? Can you post here your output (remeber to edit out your loging details!)?

Remeber, when it wotes it won't open browser window with XTH or anything like that.

MrGuildBoi · Nov 27, 2008, 08:08 AM // 08:08

Yeah, it's like Nightow's output. Let me try again. You just type "predictor (email) (pass) (user_id)" right?

Right.

If this does not work, get new version, I added ton of debugging info. You enable detailed logging by editing first line of log4j.properties to look like this (basically, replace INFO with DEBUG):

Code:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, File

This will cause file app.log to contain very detailed information about what happened when communicating with XTH which should help me to figure out what happened and went wrong.

Remeber that this file will contain your XTH password and username and everything so take minute to find this info and remove it before sending it to me.

Is there a way for this tool to simply give you it's predictions and not vote for you?

Ie: Give you the predictions information that this tool provides, and then let you manually go enter that information yourself into the website.

That way the tool won't need your userid/pw, and Anet won't know that you used it, right?

I would prefer that method, if you could make it.

sykoone · Nov 27, 2008, 01:15 PM // 13:15

To make it not vote for you, just enter some nonsense data for the user id. It still presents the list of predicted winners, so all you gotta do is vote manually using that information.

You can run it with fake credentials, in that case tool will run but will not vote (well, it will try to vote but for nonexistant account).

Or you can simply ask someone to post their results here and vote according to them. That way you don't have to download and run it at all.

If you have Windows XP, you can use one of the Windows Powertoys, the CmdHere one:

It's built-in into Vista:

zwei2stein: same 1v1 problem here, output is the same as for Nightow.

Btw, Navaros's question is answered by Nightow output previously posted (tinypaste is a very useful website!):
http://tinypaste.com/d9d3c
Look after the line "Picking who to vote for."

So to enter my votes according to what the AI predicts, do I just enter the names in the same sequential order that they appear in that text? I don't understand what the numbers next to the names text means.

For example, if I did it in sequential order my votes would be for the top 8 GVG:

1. Rebel Rising (Q.P. 24)
2. Whats Going On (Q.P. 111)
3. Team Paradigm (Q.P. 30)
4. Stealing Society (Q.P. 41)
5. Straight Outta Kamadan (Q.P. 20)
6. Amazing Strength (Q.P. 65)
7. Steel Phoenix (Q.P. 20)
8. Pandas For World Domination (Q.P. 160)

Is that what the AI is predicting for the top 8, or no?

For 1vs1, it the sequential order is:

1. Heros Useless Now (Q.P. 40)
2. Si Le Nt Sl Ay Er (Q.P. 24)
3. Rainbow Zoop Zoop (Q.P. 22)
4. Assel No Lifer Haha (Q.P. 31)
5. Hadshi Teh Ranger (Q.P. 54)
6. The Getaway Special (Q.P. 21)
7. X Se Xy Squirrel X (Q.P. 43)
8. I S N O W Y I (Q.P. 20)

Is that what the AI is predicting for the top 8, or no?

Nightow · Nov 27, 2008, 06:01 PM // 18:01

Re-download the application Navaros as you will now get different results.

http://tinypaste.com/6bef595

P.S. Why does the output include predictions past the 8th and final slot?

Navaros · Nov 27, 2008, 06:38 PM // 18:38

I never downloaded it in the first place, I was going by the text in the link you directed me to.

But I'll download it and then put in fake credentials if that's what needs to be done.

Still need to be sure if I just vote for the names text in sequential order that they appear in the text, voting with the first one as number 1, and second as number 2 etc.?

What do the numbers next to the names text mean?

Yep, it does record 1v1 now. I also checked a few times that it overrides previous results and it's working. Following Navaros's request, you could parse the first param for a keyword to indicate you only want the predictions outputted, not posted (...or not, fake creds work too, it's simply cleaner

).

Navaros: yes, you're correct, results are read in this order. The numbers are basically the rank used in ordering them.

Nightow: candidate players/guilds are gathered from these pages, so more than 8 are outputted, but only 8 are recorded on XTH.

Hey, it appears you've added the options 1v1 and GvG

Narcissia · Nov 27, 2008, 08:05 PM // 20:05

i think u should just post the results u get from it each month so we dont have to dl it lol

Nightow · Nov 27, 2008, 08:28 PM // 20:28

Just a heads up folks, sounds like at least two of the guilds are playing as smurfs.

I keep forgeting whos smurf is what kmd=gg and rawr=trim not sure who else plays what smurfs

Edit: Ok, now it sounds like kmd will be the only smurf guild this time around. I'd keep following the prediction threads just to be safe though.

Well, it's much faster:

1) old method: look up the prediction threads(2-5 clicks+dozens of reading)/past tournament results(2-5 clicks+"analyze")/guess from obs(lots of time+"analyze") -> put results into XTH each months (=~ 20-30 clicks)

You can argue that the "analyse" is where the real prediction happens, but well it's free zkeys for most people...

2) new method: download the stuff once (1 click+unzip), run it each month once (1 click+3 words to type)

You can even modify "predictor.cmd" (as a text file) to call the zwei2stein's predictor for all your accounts.
