Merit Dashboard Edit 29/11/2019:.
This is the last update: This product will be discontinued on the 03/12/2019
Updated to reflect the most recent sMerit available data:
Total sMerit: 530.518
Total Txs: 268.122
From Users: 21.367
To Users: 31.736
minDate: 2018-01-24 22:12:21
maxDate: 2019-11-29 02:47:47
Edit 01/06/2018:The tool has the full history of sMerit TXs available in the official Forum export file, so it goes over the current 120 day Forum limit when viewing our sMerit History. By filtering the Data Tab you can see the sMerit detail you've sent or received.
NEW:1) Changed the Data Tab to include all individual sMerit Transactions (every single one since the Merit System genesys), and not just an aggregate by userFrom userTo which is what I used up until now. This allows up to
view the whole set of individual TXs for any given user (just filter by the desired ToUserName or FromUserName).
2) The data record for
each TX now includes more detail: Tx date, From data (userId , user name, rank and link to profile) To data (userId , user name, rank and link to profile), amount of sMerit in the Tx, link to the merited post.
3) I’ve switched on the export feature, so
you can now export all or a filtered set of data to csv (I reimported it into Excel and it looks fine, allowing for external excel work to be be formed). Use from the Menu -> File -> Download.
4) A
total Sent Tab has been added to aggregate the total sMerit sent to a given user/s.
5) A
total Received Tab has been added to aggregate the total sMerit received for a given user/s.
6) A
Summary Sent Tab has been added to summarize the total sent from a given to each user in his network.
7) A
Summary Received Tab has been added to summarize the total received by a given user from each user in his network.
Note: The filters have to be set on each individual Tab, since filters are not shared amongst Tabs.

This is an interesting curiosity that I thought about doing, but couldn’t find a proper free and easy to use tool to do it with until now...
The idea is to get a general picture of our SMerit network in a graphical form, both as a sMerit sender and receiver. It won’t throw too many new insights, but I find it fun in a way.
You can play around with the data following this link (edit 08/06/2018 replaced link with new version):
User Merit Network.
1. Examples:The output is something like this:
a) My sMerit Network as a sMerit Sender:Shows who I've sent sMerit to.
b) My sMerit Network as a sMerit Receiver:Shows who I've received sMerit from.
c) Theymo's Network as a sMerit Sender:Shows who Theymos has sent sMerit to.
d) Theymo's Network as a sMerit Receiver:Shows who Theymos has received sMerit from. Not bad ... (not all names come out since image is cropped).
e) Example of joint network of two sMerit Senders:Intersection between the two users of about a dozen merited users.
f) Example of joint network of two sMerit Receivers:Both users have received sMerit in common from multiple users.
g) My sMerit sent to Ranks / received from Ranks:Shows which Ranks i send sMerit to and vicecersa.
2. How to use it:The product is fine for multiple porposes, but is a bit chunky to use. It also lacks some featured I’d like to see included such as placing the sMerit number on the relationship lines, and for the product to share my filters on multiple tabs, amongst other features.
The Google product shows now 9 Tabs:
Data:
This Tab now has all the sMerit Tx (derived from the latest sMerit.txt). It can be filtered at will to see someone's full set of TXs.
Total Sent, Total Received:
Aggregates Sent and Received by user. Filter the name.
Summary Sent, Summary Received:
Aggregates Sent and Received by a user to other users. Filter the name.
Merit Awarded to: This tells us who the sMerit is awarded to, but we need to filter the Sender. To do this:
- Click the Filter dropdown box
- Select FromUserName value (a filter should be now visible on the left side of the screen)
- On the filter you can now type your user name (i.e. ddmrddmr) and press Find
- Filter should be applied and the image limited to the selected Sender, viewing al Receivers in his sMerit network.
- You can adjust the image size and move it around.
- There’s an irritating thing (that seems to be a bug) that often happens: Not all nodes (Receivers) are shown by default, so
you need to increase the nodes in the box above the image (I normally just
retype the upper limit of nodes shown by the node box).
- If you want to filter by another user, it's best to delete the filter (using the cross) and restart again (otherwise it adds both users to the query).
Merit Awarded By: This tells us who the sMerit is awarded by, but we need to filter the Receiver. To do this:
- Exactly the same as above, but filter by ToUserName.
Merit Awarded To Ranks: This tells us which Ranks our sMerit is awarded to, but we need to filter the Sender. To do this:
- Exactly the same as above, but filter by FromUserName.
Merit Awarded By Ranks: This tells us which Ranks award us with sMerit but we need to filter the Receiver. To do this:
- Exactly the same as above, but filter by ToUserName.
You can also see the exact data where the chart derives from by clicking on the three dots above the image and draging it down.
It takes a little bit of getting used to it, but in a few minutes you can chart your sMerit networks as well as see the complete TXs for your selection.
