As Elon Musk has now started charging for the use of the API and this has prevented us from being able to post our progress on the Xbox through the GamertagNation website, directly on Twitter, it would be interesting to create an internal tool on the website that would allow us to generate an image of a given game, with all our progress in it (Total GS, hours played, percentage of completion, start or completion date, etc.), so that we can manually make posts on social media.
TA has this system and it would be great to see GN having its own too, what do you think of the idea?
I voted yes because it sounds like a nifty feature (and because I like polls) but I agree with Marv in that I think the level of time needed to implement should be considered
Sounds like a good idea, but it is a matter of how much development time will be needed to implement it.

Looks like I made something back in 2014 using 360voice and XBOXAPI APIs, before those two sites went away. I feel like, depending on Eric's actual time availability and data storage on GTN, it is actually something that could be thrown together quickly.
On the other side, anything that drives traffic or usage to Elon... I say skip.
