GoogleAnalyticsPlugin
The Google Analytics Plugin allows to use Google Analytics for basic statistics.
The current version tracks events like logins, quits, deads, and kills by user (for all events see here).
You can see some examples how the data is visualized in Google Analytics on the images page.

This sounds cool and all, but how about a tutorial for someone who has never tried Google Analytics before?
I added a page with a list of the current events here. I'm open for suggestions for more events.
Is there any documentation on what GA parameter is linked to what event on the server? I really like the idea of this, and from testing it out it seems rather straight forward. I just want to make sure I'm using it to it's full potential.
I fixed some bugs in the new version and created a new google analytics account for testing... I takes at least an hour until the updates show up on the google analytics page.
Love this, any chance of getting some more info on how to set up tho? I believe i set up the config correctly. Still no update on my analytics account tho, and nothing listed under Content - Event.
