			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A visitor suggested that we show <a href="http://wow.guildprogress.com/server-rank">servers sorted by progression</a> so I went ahead and added an option for that on the server list page. Servers on this page are sorted by their best guild&#8217;s progress in the default era. We could expand this a bit more if people are interested in seeing more it more in depth. For example, we could show exactly where each server is in progression. Let me know if you want to see more.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="float:left; padding:5px" title="Avatars United" src="http://www.avatarsunited.com/images/graphics/au_header_logo.gif" />I&#8217;m proud to finally announce the release of an Avatars United application that will allow you to add guild progress information to your Avatars United profile. What is Avatars United? It is basically Facebook for gamers:</p>
<blockquote><p>Avatars United (AU) is a community for your virtual avatars. Register your avatar, upload your profile picture, write your biography and share some of your exploits in virtual worlds through pictures, videos and blogs.</p></blockquote>
<p>You can learn more about their site and goals through <a href="http://www.avatarsunited.com/about_us">this link</a>. It is a really cool site and I encourage everyone to check it out!</p>
<p>If you do find yourself <a href="https://www.avatarsunited.com/signup">signing up</a> and creating a profile, don&#8217;t forget to install the guildprogress.com application. It is available in WoW, EQ, and EQ2 flavors. You can find them in the <a href="http://www.avatarsunited.com/apps">applications directory</a>. Using data from guildprogress.com, you can show off your guild&#8217;s recent PvE accomplishments on your profile page and provide a more in depth look on the application page. You may also configure the application to automatically post to your activity feed when your guild defeats new bosses or completes new achievements or also when your guild moves up in rank. This is just an initial release and I hope to do a lot more with it in the near future. You can check out my avatar&#8217;s WoW guildprogress.com application by <a href="http://www.avatarsunited.com/avatars/xxav/apps/wowguildprogress">clicking here</a>.</p>
<p>I hope you all enjoy it and feel free to <a href="http://www.avatarsunited.com/avatars/xxav">unite with me</a> after you <a href="https://www.avatarsunited.com/signup">sign up</a>!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The tooltips on the main chart now contain more information. You can mouse now over a table cell to view what bosses the guild has and has not completed in that zone. This tooltip will also display significant achievements as well total achievements completed in the zone. The goal here is to make it easy to get to the data you want to see.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll also notice the new &#8216;Hard Mode&#8217; column for Ulduar. These achievements now play a large role in how the guilds are ranked.</p>
<p>The guild charts may be revamped soon to include the new focus on &#8216;Hard Mode&#8217; achievements. Enjoy! <img src='http://blog.guildprogress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I made a slight change to the way the rankings are done so you may notice some slight shuffling. The method in which kill dates were being prioritized had a minor flaw to it which was giving slightly less points than intended on kills that less of the population had completed.</p>
<p>I am also pondering changes that might place more emphasis on progress rather than quantity and dates. Unlike other guild progress sites, we do not simply rank based on who is further into the content. Completion dates and and minor achievements also factor into our scoring.</p>
<p>Would you like to see more emphasis placed on who is further in progression? Or keep it how it is with dates and minor achievements playing a role in determining the rankings? An extreme example would be: Should a guild who was formed yesterday and has completed all the content be ranked higher than a guild who has achieved world firsts on every kill yet has failed to defeat the last boss? Hmmm&#8230;.</p>
