What's this?

Plstat is a plugin for chessclub.com's BlitzIn program.
Author: Bernd Goeke, or fledermaus on ICC.
The name was chosen in reference to pstat

Current Version: Plstat 1.2 (Juli 2007)

What does it do?

It keeps track of your results and tells you how you scored against a particular opponent.
Some more statistics also available, like whom you played the most games with or your overall score.

After you installed it you don't have to care about it, it will start automatically with blitzin and close itself whith it.
At the first start it will try to read game results from the pgn-file with your games, if there is one. If not your stats will just start from then. If you want you can configure the plugin to be silent and (the 1.2 beta) invisible until you have sufficent data to give useful results.

Sounds interesting to you?

Then continue with download,    how to install  and   usage

More features of the latest version

• Seperate stats for different rating types
• Seperate stats black / white
• Can show the the score you were expected to make against an opponent so you can compare it to how you did
• Can be reduced to a System Tray Icon and so be nearly invisible
• Configurable "idle diconnection" feature

Do I really want to know all this ;-)   ?
If not, you can configure it to only show you exactly what you want to know.

pstat was a bot on ICC.

As you see, one day it disconnected and never came back.
Many people, including me, were quite unhappy. Time went by and there was no substitute, so i decided to write my own personal pstat. Here it is. Of course it can only keep track of your own games, but then it will not go offline either.
