Saving The Bracket With An Addon?

<Stickerz>

Legend
Okay so basically i have spoken to a fair ammount of 19s about an idea that has come to mind and many agreed that i should post something about it on TI, (Just for the record would like to say i have no idea if such thing is even near possible, it is purely based on curiosity)

At the moment we seem to be having the problem where people are having constantly to 'id spam' into letting others acknowledge that there are people queuing for a potential for a BG pop, but with this it is almost impossible to be 100% accurate on knowing how many people are queuing and on which faction, as not everyone has every ID for all the twinks in the 19 bracket.

So with the the obvious part out the way, what i was going to propose/ask is would it be possible to create an addon that is available to download which would have a system where by it would recognize a level 19 with locked xp being online which would then transmit to possibly a website, or in game addon feature which would be available for all twinks who have the same addon to view.
Once logged on to your character (19 non exp) you would then be registered onto the addon which would show The Number of people online per Faction The Number of people qued for a bg from each faction (Alliance/Horde) and if there is a battleground in progress
(E.G. Number of alliance online (7)Number of Alliance qued (4) and Vice-versa for Horde. This would allow people to have an idea of the activity at the current moment and if it is worth queuing or not.

On top of this it would also be useful if there was a live chat system implemented with this addon where you have a panel or channel with usernames of which rather than just watching the que numbers go up it would allow a chat system to prompt people to que etc (Or simply social chat like a guild channel) without having to look at posts which are not "live". Of course if possible this wouldn't be the final verdict on the addon and there would have to be improvements/developments but if something along those lines merged, it could be deemed as quite useful and an easier way to 'save' the bracket.

Not sure if this is a ridiculous thing to post, but i know if such thing were available/possible i would defiantly prefer it aswell as many others i have spoken to, so i might as well get everyone's perspective and get it out the way!

If anyone has any way in which they think something along these lines may be possible please contact me via PM as well as any posts :)

Add as many active 19s to real id as possible. Pay attention to which faction everyone is on. Learn to count to 10.
 
There is this site 29s used to use few years back where you can add that you are in queue. If everyone in the EU uses that you can see whos in queue and how many for both sides. Just a hint and easy to use.. but i forgot what it was perhaps you could ask in the 25-29 bracket forum how that was called. Stupid i forgot it but i hope this helps you alot it does basicly the same as your addon suggestion. It had chat and all.

Edit; I checked the 25-29 forums but i am not able to find it quickly nor my google search helped me out, why cant i remember this dam lol. I think its in the archived thread database of the 29s section somewhere.

The concept is interesting, because there's also a limit to how many battletags/friends one can have. And it would be more of a "who's on?" addon, a more complete and direct version (for twinking) of the battle.net system. Thing is, that would have to be made from stratch, and I doubt that somebody knows how to throw some coding at one (or has the patient to). So we would have to pay to make it happen. Crowdfunding?

It would work for every bracket tho.

But in the meanwhile: http://www.twinkinfo.com/forums/f12/your-battletag-here-queue-53080/

I think that site only works for US servers. It can't find any of my toons on any of the realms :(

We used this website years ago for our 29s and it worked fine^^ But i think this works only for US because i can't find my server on the list... But it wouldn't be the best solution anyways, you have to 'queue' your char on the website to be seen and i don't think that the majority of 19s will do that everytime they queue ingame.
 
Make the addon, but if you require my funding, you will have to incorporate pictures from Hooters' swim suit competitions..
I get sick if I spend money on titless things..;)
 
It looks like that web page changed alot, also its adress i dont remember it like that and yeah we used it with the 29s in cruelty/crueldad baldi, i thought this was a handy trick if you get some dedicated people using it but shame it doesnt work for eu anymore.

Thanks for the link guys :)
 
How come you guys dont just start to use a IRC Channel, yes it's "oldschool" but IRC is a godlike chat system, and you cna just create a channel for 19s and people can come and go?
 
Also EU needs more MVP's!
Then click the vote button of your old guildmaster, i think i deserved that from my old guildies!

/gkick.. oh wait
 
The idea for an addon like this is great ... the question is who is able to program it hehe xD And is it even possible to track 19s with xp off?

if everyone starts using OQ the addon is ready and waiting. u can ban people you don't like Qing with, or set a password for private groups.
