DINKER'S LINK COLLECTION

I am making this post in case you didn't notice my link collection on the left side of the page. There are pretty useful and interesting stuff you can find and use such as statistics for you clan channel, operating bots, hosting bot, very old replays to watch and so on. Detailed explanation inside the post.

This is my link collection. Combined with Handy tools it represents everything you can get from this game apart from playing it. Enjoy and share it. 

BattleReports replays archive is very large database of replays from all patches and gateways. It has replays from the oldest Warcraft 3 patches. Players that I've mentioned in PART ONE and PART TWO of my Legend's list used to upload their replays on this website back in the time when Replayers wasn't that popular. So if you want to Tillerman playing in his shinny days or AcidPsycho testing out new strategies in 1.03 this is a place to go.

PingGnome bot statistics is website dedicated to battle.net channel statistics. You must have noticed this little bot going which is going from channel to channel, gathering interesting information about each user and channel it joins. If you want to find out what are the most visited channels, what type of users joins your channel or something else battle.net related Gnome's lair is the place to go.

Stealthbot channel bot is the most popular channel bot on battle.net. Currently it is stuck on version 2.7 and unfortunately it wont be upgraded. Nevertheless it is a must have tool if you are running a channel of you own. Beside basic ping commands, join/ leave user notifications it has tons of useful scripts which are pretty helpful to every dedicated clan leader.

Epicwar maps database is the largest database of Warcraft 3 maps. For all versions for every type of players. From melee, campaign maps, tower or footman wars or even classic's Dota maps. If you are searching for map that you can't find or download anywhere else I bet that Epicwar has it in it's database.

Ladder wayback machine is a direct link to the archive of battle.net ladder. Here you can check how did ladder page looked back in 2002-2012 and who were the players who took part in it. It is pretty interesting to see who was highly ranked in earlier patches and what races were the most popular.

Free tourney hosting is direct link to tournament hosting platform of www.tourney.cc. If you have aspirations of starting your own tournament or league or anything that needs to be specially moderated on highest level of organization this is the place to go. Fully optimized for any kind of even it supports group system, single and double elimination bracket and ranking database with seeding. 

Ghost++ hosting bot is the most popular and the best configured hosting bot on battle.net. Back in the time people used many programs to reduce delay on battle.net platform. Listchecker, Delay reducer and others failed in their interpretation and Ghost++ came into scene and never left it. You can also rent a hosting bot for very small amount of money but if you own your own server like I do there is no need for that.
