A clan ranking site started and maintained by Hobbex of Devil's Advocates, and one of the biggest Quake sites in Scandinavia during 1996 and 1997. The site was started in November 1996, and exactly one year later about 150 clans, mainly Scandinavian and Finnish, were registered. The clans reported official matches with screenshots, sometimes comments, and Hobbex presented the results on his site.

A Frag in the Darkness started out as a simple collection of statistics and clan match history, before Hobbex decided to make a ranking system for HPW and LPB clan wars. The Norwegian Carnage Clan was 1st on the LPB rankings, thus arguably the best Nordic clan at at that time. When they dissolved the clan to form Game Over in November 1997, Teddy Bears became the new leading LPB clan. Brutal Deluxe and Clan 9 were also among the top LPB clans. Clan A was the best HPW clan, with high ping players from Teddy Bears, Swedish Chefs and Da Swedish Mob also doing well.

Hobbex did not run the site as an exclusive league or tournament. All official matches, also from other leagues like Norwegian Quake League, Swedish Quake League and Danish Quake League, would also be reported to the ranking system of A Frag in The Darkness.
