Hi, I'm looking for a group/people to complete the Seeker Droid and Macrobinocular Heroics with. Reply here, PM me or whisper Fuyri ingame if you're interested.

Just posting to say I am responding to this issue but am gathering more information privately before making a decision, please keep the thread civil.

Much better, should be up to date

Congrats to everyone on the kills. Can you please retake your achievement screenshot using one of the linked UTC clocks. Your score will not be effected by this.

Updated

There's no penalty for retaking the screenshot. It's backdated to the achievement time.

Congrats on the speed runs. Your screenshot's missing a UTC clock.

Congrats to everyone on the kills, updated the spreadsheet.

Congrats on all the new kills particularly those on Council. Can you please retake your screenshots with one of the recommended UTC clocks, the one you used doesn't update in real time, there is no penalty for retaking the sceenshots.

Congrats however your screenshot is missing a utc clock, could you please retake it following the rules on the first post, you won't lose any points for needing to do this.

Congrats on all the new kills, especially those downing council. Spreadsheet should be up to date

Congratulations! Should be up to date.

Congrats on the kill.

Congrats on all the new kills. Should be up to date, let me know if there's anything missed

Should be up to date, if i made any mistakes inputting the numbers let me know

Could you please retake these. Remember to include Achievement time, Computer/game time and UTC Clock (it's backdated to the achievement time so you get the actual time of the kill regardless of when the screenshot is taken) more details are in the first post if you need extra information.

Sorry should be fixed, the rest should be up to date aswell.

Thanks, changed the wording slightly, i was focused on the guild part

Everything should be up to date. Just posted a new thread and spreadsheet for NiM Dread Palace, please note the changes, particularly on how to take screenshots. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=7472010 I will stop updating this with the removal of Nightmare Power so good luck tonight to anyone still going.

Click Here for the Dread Palace Nightmare Mode 8-Man Progression Tracking Tool UTC Clock Alternative UTC Clock Introduction The challenges and achievments of Dread Palace are on their way very soon and here is the new progression tracking spreadsheet. I've taken into account some of the feedback from NiM Dread Fortress Progression Tracking to improve the system. Screenshots, times and scores now all revolve around achievements and achievement times. This means there will be no penalisations for not taking a screenshot as you kill the boss. As you can take the screenshot whenever you like please follow all verification guidlines to ensure the most undisputable result possible. How the tracking tool works The score you get is based off the latest boss you killed only. Each bosses base value increases by 1000 for each boss so that a guild that has killed more bosses will always be ahead of those which has killed less bosses. Each boss is worth an additional 1000 points that decreases by a set amount of points per hour after the content is released. 1 point/h for the first 4 bosses and 0.5 points/h for the final boss. It is not possible to get negative amount of bonus points. The Speed Run is ranked seperately from the boss clears and acts as a list of who achieved it first. Verifying boss kills There are several elements that are need to verify a kill and the kill time, all are required to be placed on the spreadsheet. You can take a screenshot for kills several weeks ago and still receive the maximum score. Elements to include: Guild Name Achievement Achievement Time Current UTC Time Current Computer or Game Time Here is an example screenshot with all elements color coded. How to take a Time Stamp Verification Screenshot: Ensure the game client is in Fullscreen (Windowed) mode. This can be set in the Preferences/Graphics menu Click the UTC Clock link here and set the browser window to a size of your preference. Drag UTC time-stamp window over the SWTOR Client window and position it appropriately. On your keyboard, hit CTRL+Print Screen to capture your entire Desktop to your clipboard. In MS Paint, paste the contents of the clipboard (the captured image). Save the image. Alternatively, you can use screen capturing software. Penalties for not providing the required information: You may be asked to retake a screenshot if it does not meet all the requirements. If the required elements are spread between multiple screenshots it may or may not be accepted. You are allowed to take part in multiple guilds for progression however as achievements are once per account there must be at least one new person in the every guild clearing content to provide a fresh achievement for that guild to be added to the spreadsheet. Posting your kills Include the following items in your post: Guild Name Guild Website (If you have one) Server Region Faction A link to the verification screenshot for each boss you have defeated. Final Words This thread is meant for posting progress so please keep it clean. If you have any questions/conserns/comments feel free to send me a PM and I'll respond as soon as possible. Spread the word, the more who take part the better this will be. Good luck to you all and have fun.

Sorry about the slow update, and congrats on all the new achievements.

Congrats. Do you have any screenshots of the first 4 bosses? If not just an achievement screenshot to fill them in as verified?

Congrats on the kill, put you in for when i confirmed it as there's no UTC clock, only a few hours out tho and this is what I've been doing for similar situations.

Congrats Titans, added you to the list, used the best times from the two posts that are within the rules.

I've knocked up the start of a prototype. It ranks based off most bosses > time of latest boss only. Speed run is ranked separately. Going to add a few extra features in the form of statistics but they won't effect the workings of the spreadsheet, any suggestions on what to include will be appreciated. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Au2fnVW6lDXQdGtsZ3VBUnlOQ3p2MTdaTVRrTmcyMmc&usp=sharing Regarding UTC screenshots in past progressions My stance on this is most guilds who took part knew this was required, it's really easy to do and if you don't do it you are the only ones to blame. If you chose not to take UTC shots last time that should not be a reason not to take part next time it should be a reason to make sure you're aware of what to do and get seen for what you're truly capable of. This is however pretty irrelevant as the spreadsheet is changing to allow backdating with an easier method of entering the information. so take part and show off your skill. Exploits and Bioware There are many situations where if something is an exploit or not. There are also clear cases where Bioware has acted upon it by fixing the situation but they won't punish (because they care more about money than bringing justice to those who are exploiting). If Bioware wants to take over tracking then it would be completely up to them as to any penalization but as long as it's in the hands of the community it will be the community that makes the decisions relating to what can cause penalties or exclusion from said tracking. Regarding the current topic of implant farming using an exploit, I believe what took place is immoral and unfair and will lessen the achievements gained by those who exploited the situation. I think Bioware should reset the implants of those involved (if they have a reasonable method of finding who did it) but as a community any action we can take towards impacting tracking is overkill and we need to just continue forward.
