Actually that's a good idea. I will talk with our developer and see if we cant get that added into this upcoming release.

Awesome! Thanks for this - working great!! It would be great to see TOTAL TIME for each user on the Leader Board (in addition to overall) and Time Online options available for inclusion on the Member List too.

Edit: What is this mod using to calculate time online? I just installed this and there is another member on the board with me. While I was posting here, it appears he gained 3 minutes on his time but I hadn't logged out. Is it looking at active page refreshes or something?

Also, what is the average based on? A 24-hour period? (I just anticipate questions from users and want to know answers) Thanks!
