Board 8 > Save My Ultimate Contest I-trial: Day 1 (RULE CHANGE) [march] [smuc]

(+) Yeah! (+)

Round Tally (updated every 10min): https://gmun.moe/b8/savemython/tally.php

yes the trial run is just the noble nine, I'll start noms if this all works out

Rules:

- Only topics started by Gmun's 'Save-My' alt are valid.... for the trial run, ignore this. Account still leveling up :(
- Topics are automated, a new round will as soon as a round has been finalized - 24/7 rounds!
- Saves/Hour: 2
- Required to Save: 4
- SAVES MUST BE MADE IN THE FORM OF THEIR CORRESPONDING SAVE KEY. SEE BELOW.
- Automated Save Refreshers may appear as I set this feature up. STATUS: Not Ready
---> 'Save-My' will post a random keyword separated with dashes, the first person to post the word gets the save.
---> Eg. 'Save-My' posts 'b-a-n-a-n-a', player posts 'banana' and their previous save becomes Save-My's, freeing up the poster to save again.
- As results are automated... lawyerings aren't a thing. You're responsible for your own saves, including influence by invalid ones
- Alt saving is banned, but votes WILL be counted until the account is banned. All known associated accounts will be banned and turned Kill On Sight.
- ... That being said, punishments will be lenient to begin. Ban List is purged at the start of Day 11.
- Tally page updated every 15 minutes, updates posted to topic every 30 minutes (provide a new save was made).
- and yes the extra tag in the topic title is just to ensure nobody blocks up the topic titles.
- Banned: Save-My

You MUST make saves in between bold tags. For example, '<-b->Edea<-/-b->' (remove dashes) to save 'Edea Lee'. Capitalization is ignored. Bold tags must be to directly encapsulate the name of the character, use the guide below to use your character's proper name key.

Double saves during rounds that allow may be delimited with ';', ie. '<-b->Edea;Agnes<-/-b->' would save 'Edea Lee' and 'Agnes Oblige'. Saves are counted in order they're posted. Be cautious of quoting saves, for the time being these WILL be counted as saves.

For now, Only the first use of bold tags are checked. Don't use bold before your save, and if you're saving two characters in one post use the aforementioned method to do so.

Can it also be set up to post updates at the top of a new page?
---

plus/minus a couple minutes is possible

the basic scan is every 5 minutes right now, so could set it up to post a new update whenever the first pass of the new page happens

fine

Poor L Block doesn't even get his space

I don't understand the part about alt saving. Obviously using alts to get more saves is bad but what about weirdos like me who just have two accounts depending on the device used? Am I Mobilezoid to this soulless AI forever now?

alt saves in legal save times are fine, I just mean no alt saving to avoid the time restriction

since everything is automated I can't actually prevent violations from being counted, I can only ban violators from doing it again
---

That's what I assumed, the wording was just ambiguous. Thanks!
---

annnnd think I just tweaked it sufficiently to make a post during a new page

although atm if the update is the same as the last it won't be posted, since you can't make 2 duplicate posts in succession

oh I can save

Will it be able to tell time for split saves?
---

Split saves should work fine. When it checks valid saves it scans across all saves from a user, counts how many are within an hour of the new save, then compares that with the rule for how many saves are allowed per hour

Not sure if I'm missing it but the opening post also doesn't say anything about how many times someone can save a character. Ah well I'll assume that's a rule too
