WarFrame has a notification system like this:
https://twitter.com/WarframeAlerts .. used for different purpose, but a notification system nonetheless.
I'm sure there are plenty of twitter apps that can use filters to match with only the interesting alerts and turn those into desktop notifications, no twitter account needed of course.
Main difference to RWRWatcher would be platformlessness, it's possible to set it up on mobiles and PC I believe, potentially re-using applications you already might have for tracking other alert worthy feeds.
Luck of Duck, try hooking this up in Linux in your favorite RSS reader/alert application:
http://www.modulaatio.com/rwr_server_li ... server.xmlIt's currently set to change when there's at least 1 player on a server, and it favors promoting the server with highest player count.
Seems to work pretty nicely with Feed Notifier in Windows at least, the much I've tried it (3 minutes), just saw someone joining Beerdrinkers.
I should start reading this forum more often... Damit other distractions! Like work! I need to set up a RSS reader now.
EDIT:
Quite RSS at least works, of course with this I need to set up the feed reader my self, by that I mean, I need to specify the update, update rate and sound notification, spec notification window to pop up when RWR feed updates and since Manjaro has philosofy of loading the kitchen sink and nothing more on startup I also might have to add Quite to the boot (dog, help me) (possibly).
So for lazy ass user that is sort of involved task (takes like 3 minutes for a user like me who has never before used this particular reader, or much of RSS readers..) (erm, not including time to add it to the boot conf, I will do that only if I have to)
The highest activity server is good, for me at least because I useally just want to know if there is like 6 people on server, I kind of wat to get there too.
Maybe the feed could annouce highest activity servers for separate match types
I mean the feed would announce:
8 on RWRgoesDayzRussian servers crazy (PVP)
5 on Beerdrinkers (Invasion)
This would be good specially if RWR is going to get more game types. I mean if say someone does not care for deathmatch, but a good team PVP, they would see that there is a DM match is having 15 players, but also that there is PVP going on with 8 players on the same notification. Or that there is just that DM match.
BTW. I took me almost 2 hours total to set up and test this mainly because there was 4 players on Beerdrinkers Invasion.
