I'm a moderator on Arqade/Gaming.StackExchange! Besides my moderator duties, I also occasionally contribute to the Arqade Blog and write tools against the SE API. I enjoy video games, and I like helping people enjoy games as well.

On top of all that, I co-author (with my partner in crime EBongo) a blog about gaming and technology called Without the Sarcasm. Here are some recent items of interest:

You can also follow me on Twitter.

Edit stats aren't part of the API as far as I can tell. Voting is very general in the user object, but you do know those stats are tracked in the lower right hand corner of your user page, right?

@minitech, looks like github changed something - github.com/blog/1452-new-github-pages-domain-github-io I'll have to update the domains for all my tools. Thanks for the heads up.

The script uses CORS which historically has had dodgy support in Opera. I work around the limited availability in IE with a jQuery plugin, but I haven't tested extensively with Opera.

 comment API endpoints do not set Access-Control-Allow-Origin, so CORS requests fail
@hippietrail, I've noticed issues in other areas, so I'm assuming the migration has a few hiccups. If it persists, you might ask a new question to file a bug with the team - I got pinged for your comment, and I can't do anything, I'm just a guy who codes against their API for entertainment :(

@hugh, trying again just now and it seems to be working properly. I suppose whatever github outage is over now...

@hugh, it's a github thing, so I don't host it. They may have changed something, though... I'll look into it.

 comment ChatterBox - user script that adds inbox integration to Stack Exchange Chat!
@Ullallulloo, thanks for reminding me. I moved all the code and the pages around a while back. You can reinstall the script, or click this link to generate access tokens.

Unfortunately, no. Due to the private nature of voting, I can't tell what you've voted for via the API. Therefore, I can't track this badge.

@Gilles, I added some context to the "About" section, including a controversial meta post and some discussions in SE chat about the topic. I don't really expect everyone to find this useful, and I'm not attempting to make or set SE policy, just help people (mostly myself) handle what I've been told I should be responsible for.
