I currently have Vbulletin 3.8.3 and I am looking for a tool to input Clan War information in to.

I created a simple PHP form that gathers the requested information:
Date : Clan Name : Enemy Score : Our Score : Map Played : Game Mode : Result
This is very simple, however I am missing a few things.

Reporting: it would be nice to be able to graph the information on our site dynamically per request.

Block: It would also be nice to have the last 3-5 matches display in a block or have a scrolling marque across the site with this information.

History: I would love to be able to click on a clan and see all of our matches with them etc and maybe a comments field.

I have a very big Clan on Combat Arms of 90% 21+ and we are currently one of the top 5 clans. We play about 10 clan wars a night and 5X that on the weekend. I have 10+ people logged in consistantly on the forums when they cant game and would love to see the information. Tracking our wins/losses is very important to us. I know that Vwar has everything we are looking for except it doesnt integrated with vbulletin and its has known security issues that are not fixed, their site recommends not using their tool.

Does anyone know of a quick and easy mod or tool for this? I own openci but their tool is too complicated and takes too long to input data. I will glady throw this over to the paid services section if I dont hear back of an existing mod/tool. Thanks in advanced

Thanks for the response but I dont know about the security issues.

Virtual War suffered a lot from public exploits and bad maintenance in the past.

There are several public exploits availbe which where not fixed due to the lack of developers. It even came to our attention that some hosting companys forbid their customers the use of Virtual War due to security reasons.

Since August, 2008 vwar is developed by a new Pubsliher with a lot of expierence in web application security related isses. Highest priority is to make Virtual War safe to use again.

The next version will fix all currently known security related bugs so that everyone can safely install Virtual War again.

We will also convert Virtual War to run with PHP 5 only and we will include ( http://php-ids.org/ ) which is a pretty nice security tool.

Currently the usage of Virtual War is dangerous and should only be considered by people who know what they do.
