I'm still running outlands fishing daily til I get both the crocs I'm still missing (and also doing it daily on non croc days in hopes for a 2 ring). I do like the aquarium setup, but just had noticed the similarity between the 2 and 5 rings, but that only one was represented in the aquarium. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/aquarium#post-6049 Tue, 05 May 2009 14:14:44 +0000 el 6049@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>With hindsight, The 2 Ring should not have been added: Even if you do the Outland fishing dailies every day, you could spend years trying to gain it. And unlike <a href="/fish/?s=The 1 Ring" title="Fish Finder - The 1 Ring.">The 1 Ring</a>, the 2 isn't actually caught. Since the 5 Ring is similar to the 2 Ring, I don't intend to add it as a separate item. One possibility is to change the 2 Ring to read "2 or 5". Could be messy if this joke is still being repeated 10 years from now. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/aquarium#post-6048 Tue, 05 May 2009 13:49:42 +0000 Azaguth 6048@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Hmmm...There's an aquarium entry for the 1 ring and the 2 ring, but not the 5 ring.

That's always been one of my 'must have' addons, you're a godsend to the fishing community. Keep up the great work! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/aquarium#post-5524 Sat, 18 Apr 2009 19:08:50 +0000 el 5524@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>The first advice I ever got about fishing was "download Fishing Buddy". So if it hadn't been for people like you, Thalen (who wrote the original Stranglethorn contest guide, and also lurks here) and Willhelm (for hinting at variations in catches by time), El might never have become fascinated with fishing.</p> <p>On the main topic, there was <a href="http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/your-forum-aquariumprofile">some discussion</a> in the past.</p> <p>I think a fairly small set of somewhat-rare fish/achievements are good for forum signatures. But I'd also like to do a lot more to track activity within the game, allow people to write diaries of their fishing, let angler on the same realm get to know one another, link across to social networking sites, and similar. I was about to start work on it when the 3.1 PTR opened - but documenting new content is a bit of a distraction, so nothing much has happened yet.</p> <p>Parsing armory achievements is the easiest way to watch in-game actions, but doesn't allow much to be tracked. One possibility (glances at Sutorix) would be for an addon to collect information about catches, and then upload that data to this site. Technically that's quite complex because addons cannot (ironically for an online game) talk to the internet, so separate software is needed, meaning extra coding and maintenance work, security paranoia, and so on. And even then long-time anglers will want to manually enter all their old catches - which is probably almost all of them. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/aquarium#post-5518 Sat, 18 Apr 2009 17:30:51 +0000 Sutorix 5518@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>And there isn't a checkbox for "Author of Fishing Buddy" (or even "Author of a Fishing addon" :-)</p> <p>Great work on the website -- I've been a Lurker for a long time, finally got around to signing up! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/aquarium#post-5498 Sat, 18 Apr 2009 09:50:09 +0000 Isa 5498@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I meant more things to show off.
