#117 with a bullet

I have several posts that I am working on from this weekend that will go over what I've learned this past weekend. The first and easiest is ...

As near as I can tell, I am the (unofficial) #117-ranked Shadowpriest on my server, Bleeding Hollow. This is out of 217 ranked level-70 Shadowpriests.

How do I know this? I've been working on a spider to crawl the Armory for the gear progression chart that I'm working on. Last Friday, I fed it the names of all of the guilds registered with WowJutsu for my server. It spent most of Friday night and Saturday crawling through characters and guilds and gear, and came back with a list of 217 Shadowpriests. If I rank those characters by Bonus Shadow Spell Damage (then Spell Hit, then Spell Crit), I come back #117.

Yeah, the ranking needs some work and it's a total crap measurement, but it's something. And, given that I was #125 on Friday and #117 this morning, that shows that all of the grinding I did this weekend paid off. (I enchanted my [Evoker's Helmet of Second Sight] with the Revered Sha'tar [Glyph of Power].)

The complete list of people I need to pass to get to the top:
