Monitoring B-Spec-Widget Reciprocity

Hey all,

B-Spec Widget Grinder seems to be working great again. Thanks to Yonis for the amazing free product. 👍

Anyways, anybody go through and prune their friends list of people who don't host races of their own? I've been meaning to do this as my friends list is getting a bit too big.

My initial idea was to populate a list in excel and add ticks beside players who raced my Bob's. I was originally going to go through the list upon collecting the price money in GT, but this seems tedious at best.

Is there anyways to determine who raced me in the logs? I've not looked at them before, but maybe it would be easier to "Control+F" friends names to see how often they pop up.

Any ideas? Happy racing.

It depends on how often your drivers are run and how often you run the widget. For example, my drivers are driven very often and this fills the log pretty quickly so I only see who has run my drivers recently (12 hours or so as a guess) so I'd miss those who raced me beyond that.

What I did do awhile back with one of the earlier versions of the widget was add a line to write to the log where it saw someone used one of my drivers. I stripped that log to just show the users username for each instance of someone using my driver. I loaded that into Excel and created a PivotTable to show the count of each username and was able to see who had been using my drivers and how frequently. People who never showed up over a week got pruned.

I don't see anything in the current versions log about other users racing my drivers but with the PSN being down and all, it could be expected.
