Thanks for replying bad eye sorry if it came across badly. I have little data here so your correct in my statement being inaccurate. I guess what I was trying to suggest was an area for your data analysis to be publicly shown like a stats page, even open source the data and then get feedback maybe on intention vs behaviour thus to get some quantifiable data, although not sure it would be. Plus certain data geeks might like to analyse the data themselves.
Would this affect the datapoints at all, or would the refreshing laptop count as only 1 in total, and not 1 per sheet, or a larger 1 with the refreshing?
I obviously don't know how other DMs prepare, other than the one I play for and myself, but I wonder if DM's monitoring sheets during gameplay, on their laptop with their other adventure notes, is something you guys are already differentiating between, something that may be overlooked, or something that you have evidence is just something applicable to a small minority of us DMs running out of DDB.
Just a bit of curiosity on my end. Thanks BadEye!
Again, none of this is taken into account in isolation. In the scenario you describe, we know those requests are coming from a single browser session and therefore it's just the DM looking at it. When we look at all of the data considering all of that, the number of DMs that use DDB as you are is relatively low (<5%).
My main point here is that, as I've said many times in the past, we don't move on feedback (or even data) hastily, but weigh options carefully to make the best long-term moves for D&D players. The revamp is a good example of this. I know that people want it yesterday, but taking our time to do it right is far better in the long haul.
Will the new character sheet fix the problem with weapons with multiple damage types (like the Staff of Thunder and Lightning)? They are currently showing null.
Given the desire to add more unofficial content (ex: stuff from Matt Mercer), are you guys reconsidering the decision to not have homebrew classes on your road map? If it has been reconsidered, do you have any idea when it would be implemented/where it would fall on the priority list?
Sorry for sending this again, but I think it got overlooked during the stream because the first part of my post was about the character sheet revamp.

Thanks!
Thanks BadEye, I appreciate your insightful responses to our concerns!
I know there is no date or timetable yet for the character sheet revamp but, speaking for myself, I have no knowledge of what kinds skills go into making something like an online character sheet or even a revamp of that. Are you able explain what goes into something like this?
BadEye said that he'd use two and a half Smurfs in a pecan pie; the correct answer was NONE YOU HEARTLESS BEAST!
You rang?
So apparently this is the way you get Hartless to reply to the 2000+ love letters you sent (and have not yet received a reply?)
Thank you to those who participated in the stream - if you missed out, the VOD is available on twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/videos/264708676). Will update this post with the YouTube link as well once it's ready.

Anyway thank you for the detailed response.
