Uses the AsyncTask framework for HTTP Get’s – Uses a simple, dynamically built URL to request stats based on player name and platform. – Uses key-value pairs in a Get request to send player name and tracking request data to a remote service. Uses pre/post-request text processing to avoid interference with the user interface.
