    Will this be legal - hunt tracker

    Hi.
    I started to prepare simple site that tracks ToD for hunts. But i'm not sure if it's legal with ToS and EULA.
    It's not connected with client by any method. It's filled by me/other players just by clicking on site.
    http://i.imgur.com/i7vMQ8d.png - this is kinda prototype.
    So - simple button that writes last ToD of chosen monster and timer that starts being red when it's 3hrs (A) after last kill so we know we should start looking again.
    Is it ok to continue or it violates ToS somehow?

    People have been doing this for Odin and Behemoth for months, not sure why it'd be a problem with hunts.

    This seems very useful and can prove to be an asset so people don't have an excuse to not he there 5 min before spawn. If you get the chance is like to check this out

    GW2 has similar websites that do this for special/long cooldown events.
    I don't see how it'd be an issue, here. But this is also Squeenix, so... you never really know.

    Someone released pretty much this same thing yesterday, with a few more features (but a little more restrictive since it has sessions by person instead of linking them)

    This looks fine. Some ppl did the same thing with an online Excel Sheet but this look promising and it shouldnt be against ToS.

    Those sites were super handy for GW2, but the events were totally different. Those are huge dynamic events where a TON of people can participate, and even if you're a few minutes out, there is a good chance it will still be going on by the time you get there. Hunt mobs are a lot different in XIV in that they are killed in a drop of a hat. Based on the behavior we're already seeing, I expect that a lot of people would mess with the ToDs on the site to make sure that they are the only ones who know the real time :/

    That's like saying they should ban people who use pen and paper to write the ToD.
