At various points in time I have felt that I was missing data to answer some questions regarding ZK players and games. Things such as "what is most played game type", "are there players that resign more than average", "what awards are collected in 1v1 vs all welcome", "how would multiple ladders look" and others. As implementing anything on the server is a very intense project (getting to know the infrastructure, develop, upload, do not break anything) I felt a (crazy) alternative solution might be better: do everything in your browser based on text files with the data! I had no clue if such a thing will work (not an expert in browser stuff but knew enough) so thought to just give it a try. I present here the result (it does work!), comparing hour players spent in game and number of game by player age.

[color=red]WARNING 2[/color]: the raw data (battle, maps, etc.) is currently 300MB. The first time you load one of the links below, it will be long (depends on your internet connection speed) and might look like nothing happens. Be patient. If you use the same link later the data will be loaded from cache and it will be much faster

The plan is to enhance it with all the things I am curious about. Also probably can make it faster. At some point I would like to make it open source and share it, but now I am more curious about the questions.
