What you did with your script is deleting all checks that are purple.
A purple check is a check that has not been updated for a while.  So removing 
a purple check can be done in 2 ways: like you did by deleting the check or 
by sending a new status.  In your case, you need to check why the status is 
not been send to the hobbit server.  Check the client logs, you can also try 
a telnet on the hobbit port (default 1984) from the client to the hobbit 
server to see if there is a network problem.  Also, check the ghost client 
list (can be found on the hobbit server in the menu).

Happy new year and wishes you all a good monitoring time,
