It's such a small part of the overall game, but one of importance for us lot since we're the core fans who really notice these 'attention to detail' kinda things. In a way, it's not really that much different to the public beta that BigAnt has done, they've just involved the 'general public' to contribute to the stat/data collection along with the player-creation side.
It's just a reminder what a cool place this is and kinda neat to be able to 'give back' to a website that gives everyone a place to hang out and share mods as one big ol' community. Say what you like about the fools and fun folk here, but we're all in a pretty unique club together - which hopefully gets a lot bigger with the public discussion of our small part we've played in the journey of these two titles... regardless of how good the games end up being, it's just kinda cool that PlanetCricket was invited to contribute our thoughts, ideas and in Barmy's case...

Look at me getting all sentimental.
EDIT:
Someone ask for screenshots to snap me out of it... Dutch, toaster please?
