[Guild Duel Leaderboard Addon] – Track Your Duels Like Never Before!

[Jebediahkorto]

For the Average Player
Here’s the easiest way to understand how this addon works:

1. Automatic Tracking:
   Every time you win or lose a duel, the addon automatically tracks it for you. No manual input required!
   
2. Guild Synchronization:
   When you log in, the addon "pings" all other guild members who have the addon installed. Only players with the addon respond, sharing their latest stats with you.
   
3. Easy Leaderboard Access:
   Just type /guildleaderboard in chat to open the leaderboard. You'll see a scrollable list of everyone in your guild with their wins, losses, and win rates. A handy red "X" lets you close the leaderboard quickly when you're done.
   
4. Top 3 Highlighted:
   The top 3 players are always highlighted in gold for some friendly competition. Show your guildmates who’s boss!
   
5. No Data Sharing Outside the Guild:
   All stats are shared exclusively within your guild, ensuring that your data remains private.
   
6. Simple Installation:
   Download the addon from the following link, place it in your Interface/AddOns folder, and you're good to go:

For the Tech-Savvy Players
Here’s a more technical breakdown of how the addon functions:

• Communication:
  The addon uses WoW’s SendAddonMessage API to send and receive data. It operates exclusively in the guild communication channel to ensure stats are only shared within the guild.
  
  []Tracking Events:
  The addon listens to the CHAT_MSG_SYSTEM event to detect duel outcomes. For example:
  
  • []Win: When the system message includes "PlayerName has defeated YourName".
  • Loss: When the system message includes "YourName has been defeated by PlayerName".
  
  
• Saved Variables:
  The addon uses WoW’s SavedVariables system to store stats persistently between sessions. Your wins and losses are saved locally in a table called DuelHistoryDB.
  
• Leaderboard Logic:
  The leaderboard dynamically sorts guild members by wins, breaking ties alphabetically.
  Top 3 players are highlighted in gold, with all other players appearing below in a standard list.
  
• Periodic Synchronization:
  Every 10 minutes, the addon sends out a sync request to all guild members. Those with the addon respond with their latest stats, ensuring everyone’s leaderboard is up to date.
  
• Lightweight Design:
  The addon is optimized to ensure minimal memory usage and no interference with gameplay.

Very nice, this will spice up the duel zones a bit lol


Edit: Seems to work nice! I've only tested with a few duels so far, but it looks neat. Would be nice to see others with it, to see how the list populates!
