Uptime Gladiator

Uptime monitoring for people who hate uptime monitoring

What it does

Uptime monitoring turned into a game. Every hour your site stays up, your pixel gladiator earns armor. One minute of downtime costs five hours of it. Checks run every 60 seconds from three AWS regions. Drawn against a rival every Monday, scored every Sunday.

Your uptime, as a gladiator. Earn armor for every hour you stay up, lose it five times faster when you go down, and fight a drawn opponent every week.

Armor for every hour your site stays up. Lost five times faster when it goes down. Drawn against a rival every Monday, scored every Sunday. Ten tiers. Each adds a piece you can see. One minute of downtime costs five hours of climbing, and the armor comes off on your public profile where everyone can see it. A higher tier carries a real head start into a duel, and a lower one can still take it. Every rule that decides a fightfrom uptimegladiator.com

  • I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role/priority when its time is up.
