Day 1

Sep 21, 2009 10:55

The sun was obscured by dark clouds and fog. As the new residents unpacked and set up their new homes they were interrupted by ominous ringing of the bells in the town square. Gathering they found Jeeves looking solemn standing in front of a podium a duck puddling around at his feet.

Strictly speaking, bolding is not necessary for the automated scripts, although the Mayor may require it for his sanity. In fact, the script strips out all html markup before processing the text.

The script should pick up any instance of the word vote followed by a valid player name. Ditto for the word unvote. Also, the word "I" followed by the word "abstain" will count as an abstention.

If you look at http://ma8p.com/~adam/ljgames/millershollow/624.html#9672 you'll see his vote is highlighted in yellow, which is how the script indicates that it has detected a vote, even though he did not bold the text.

It should probably also be noted that a "valid player name" is a fuzzy match on actual player names using some crazy algorithm I came up with to account for misspellings.

Thank you for the link! It makes reading LJ so much easier.

Ah, cool cool. I thought it was required from the last time we played but maybe that was because the GM requested it.

You're right of course!
