Did @Christina sign me up for another game without asking me?

 

[Christina]

Did I? What? Sure? Ok.

I don’t have to retain any of that information in my memory banks

Not really concerned about balance too much, but feedback welcome.

Roles look fun. Only real feedback I have is to ensure multiples of agency roles are theoretically possible, otherwise the role claim meta will flip this real quick. Entirely plausible it was on your radar, but just wanted to mention it.

 

[Local Hero]

Not sure what's going on but notifications are acting real funny. Anyone else experiencing this?

@VashTheStampede and @Christina I signed you up because you reacted to some posts. I was nervous that I overstepped so glad you confirmed

I was cool with it, then I tagged Christina to trick her into posting so she'd have to play too.

Fuckin owned.

I actually wasn't planning on it, so good call out.

Go on then.

I still can't trust myself to play a serious game these days, but I do appreciate that I am still thought of and invited

@Ben and others

How do you schedule posts? And schedule thread closings?

 

[Ben]

Oh, the forum error yesterday stopped this post from going through entirely (not just errored and posted anyway.)

So what I intended to say was;

@Ben and others

You can't schedule thread closings. That's just got to be done by hand by a mod.

 

[Jon]

That's just got to be done by hand by a mod.

Of which there are several with itchy trigger fingers that I'm POSITIVE would assist you!

 

[Local Hero]

I don't have that ability

Oh right, it's gotta be a moderator permission.

Lemme see if I can bestow just the scheduled post ability upon you.

Although I will caution, anyone who's got the ability to schedule posts is probably going to SEE your scheduled posts before they actually publish too. If you schedule a thread to post later in the day, the forum mods, etc. will see it immediately and could respond like it was a regular thread... Kinda screwy but that's how it's functioning right now.

 

[Ben]

Bestowing accomplished?

You bestowed and foisted the ability to me

Word.

I realized "foisted" would mean unnecessarily putting it on you, but this shit is necessary, son.

What does the T02:00:00 part mean? And +0000?

Or I should ask what the formatting means. I have no clue how to make the time be what I want lol

 

[Local Hero]

Oh weird, it says the 25th

Nice. I cracked the code.

Testing schedule publication

Testing schedule publication

So this post appeared instantly for me. Is that how it appears? Then it's actually posted at scheduled time?

 

[Local Hero]

Example, scheduled to post at 12 EST, ten minutes from now

It should have that bar that says publication is scheduled.

 

[Local Hero]

I see no bar

 

[Jon]

Mine is black, but depending on your theme it may not be. But it gives you the option to edit it, so you should have a bar.

Make sure the check box is selected and the time is actually in the future.

 

[Jon]

 

[Local Hero]

I think I don't have full permissions. I had nothing on my post to indicate it was scheduled

 

[Local Hero]

All good, I can just post it manually

You host you will not eat. You will not sleep. And you will respond within seconds!

Jon has been shot.

16 seems like a good number. Just waiting on @Zell 17 if he wants to play. Might send rolled out today and start tomorrow.

Thank you everyone for already forgiving me of my mistakes.

Ben murdered 3 people too early and we forgave him. I doubt you can fuck it up at all. Mistakes happen. no one really (should) care.

The other potential issue is that the admins can see scheduled posts by other people.

So can pseudo admins (which includes people like me)

 

[Local Hero]

Let's face it, I won't be prepared enough to prep posts ahead of time lol

 

[Ben]

It honestly proved pretty hard to do anyway.

Like the night dimmerwit was well hung. I'd pre-drafted posts with Alu jailing Vash and dimmerwit, but when I woke up to post them there'd been a flood of votes overnight. I had to pivot and redo everything while laying in bed.

I might also recommend not starting shit on a 9am/9pm cycle if that's not going to work for life. Next time I'm probably going to try to offset the phases as like 11am/11pm so I have time to deal with kids in the morning and at bedtime.

@Ben you might want to give him more moderator abilities so he can sticky, close, move, etc threads.

 

[Ben]

Yeaaaaaaaaaah that'd make the most sense... I'll do that in a little bit, if @Mark doesn't want to beat me to the punch.
