Thanks for the update Arc, really appreciate your work. Could you please tell me how many platinum points I have?
Because if I calculate 68 * 1.68 = 114.24, which means I'm one point away from entering the leaderboard!

Sure, here is what I have for you:

In total, I have 109 points for you across 65 platinum trophies. I noticed that you do have 68 in total, but I think that it because of some duplicate platinum trophies that aren't counted here, like Sound Shapes and Motorstorm RC.

Yeah, that tool I made was just a web scraping script, and then Sony changed their trophy pages to some kind of javascript madness that was impossible to dig into.

Ideally, there's an API that a script could simply access, but there's little to no public knowledge about it anywhere.  Makes you wonder where all these trophy sites are getting their info.

Thx for update

Yeah I've often wondered how sites like PSNprofiles gathers its data, considering the number of people they track and the frequency in which they update their data.

KylieDog had an interesting though a few pages back - create a web scraping script to grab trophy data from PSNprofiles. My knowledge is limited in this field but it seems like it would be fairly easy to do:

1. Read list of users from a txt or csv file
2. Navigate to http://psnprofiles.com/
3. Scrape trophy data from page source. For example:

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each other user.
5. Output all data to csv or xls file.

I would love to attempt writing a script like this, but I don't know where to start.

Does anyone have any good resources for creating simple web scraping scripts for beginners?

@Arc: Thank you very much. Like you said, I do have a couple of double plats, which I didn't know they don't count. Which actually makes sense of course.

Next months ps+ content contains TxK.. It looks like some of the trophies are really hard according to psnprofiles because nobody has achieved them :P.. Anyone here is gonna try to 100% TxK?

They are unachievable due to a bug or something and there will probably not be any updates to fix it. If you care about your completion percentage or something don't play it, at least not on your main account.

Ah that sucks, the game looks awesome... I like trippy games :P

No problem, Luftrausers is another game with unobtainable trophies. Both of them are good games though.
