It would be much much better if you could do something like query "[b]API[/b]/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=78755" and get back JSON instead
Omg so much this.
Like that’s the reason my VoteCount scrubber is slower than I would like.
Getting all that html and crunching it for hundreds of pages is a pita.
ScumBlade's eloquent performance left me utterly disoriented, debased, depraved and sent me spiraling into a horrific murky abyss with emotional turmoil and immense despair as my only companions until slowly I suffocate in my own gloom, surrounded by failure.

Hypothetically I may be doing just that.

100% agree
And people willing to test stuff once done.

The average game should be around 15 light-weight pages if you use &view=print&ppp=200, of which only the last three pages are probably relevant for a vc
Even threading it takes a while as it has to node parse.
Plus all the features requested add more lookups.
Mainly glad I looking at doing it in php and potentially removing said bloat.
