| 00:00.24 | JeffM | Also give each poll itâs own instance Iâd, and include that in a cancel |
| 00:00.30 | blast007 | how does the client start a poll with a GUI if it doesn't know what types of polls it can start? |
| 00:00.37 | JeffM | Ohhhhhh |
| 00:00.40 | JeffM | Oh yeah |
| 00:00.44 | blast007 | :) |
| 00:00.51 | JeffM | Well all it needs the is the description |
| 00:01.02 | JeffM | Does it need the options or just some text? |
| 00:01.45 | blast007 | at this point I could see "pick a player", "pick a team", and one or two freeform text boxes |
| 00:02.19 | JeffM | For pollkick? |
| 00:02.28 | JeffM | Aka mob rule? |
| 00:02.42 | blast007 | poll kick would be 'pick a player', yeah |
| 00:02.52 | blast007 | same for poll ban, poll kill, poll mute |
| 00:02.57 | JeffM | Iâm not sure why a poll would need text data from a client |
| 00:03.18 | blast007 | I was thinking for custom poll types |
| 00:03.27 | blast007 | :q |
| 00:03.30 | blast007 | er |
| 00:03.32 | JeffM | Maybe |
| 00:03.38 | blast007 | this isn't my vim window.. :) |
| 00:03.58 | JeffM | Well donât disallow runtime polls that are not pre defined |
| 00:04.20 | JeffM | What if a a plugin wants to start a poll |
| 00:04.28 | blast007 | it's not for the name of the poll, it's for the target of the poll |
| 00:04.35 | blast007 | a free form text target for the poll |
| 00:04.52 | JeffM | Yeah I just am leery of any input from the users |
| 00:04.58 | JeffM | Users type bad things |
| 00:05.32 | JeffM | I would put an id in cancel in case states get out of sync |
| 00:05.34 | blast007 | we do have /poll set currently, though I'd be fine with that dying :) |
| 00:05.59 | JeffM | I think polls are abused more than used |
| 00:06.14 | JeffM | Map changes can be done with instancing |

| 00:20.31 | spldart | You were so right about ventilation. Need to order fan NOW :( |
| 00:23.32 | blast007 | JeffM: "Map changes can be done with instancing" is that referring to a poll to change maps? |
| 00:23.49 | JeffM | Yeah |
| 00:24.22 | JeffM | User asks to change map, spin up new bzfs, ask people |
| 00:24.38 | JeffM | If they want to join and then redirect them |
| 00:24.48 | JeffM | If they donât they stay on old map |
| 00:25.13 | JeffM | If not enough people move shunt them back and shutdown |
| 00:25.14 | blast007 | a new bzfs on a new port? |
| 00:26.07 | JeffM | Ya |
| 00:26.32 | JeffM | Then map change is t all |
| 00:26.34 | JeffM | Or nothing |
| 00:27.40 | blast007 | what limits the number of bzfs instances that run at a time? what keeps track of what ports are already in use? |
| 00:27.57 | JeffM | New code |
| 00:28.23 | blast007 | yeah, but that sounds like something for managed instances we run, not Bob's $5 VPS |
| 00:28.30 | JeffM | Iâd write to a file for starters and see how that goes, or a SQLite dB |
| 00:28.56 | JeffM | Whoever runs it should know the requirements |
| 00:29.19 | JeffM | Iâd at least like to have both options open |
| 00:30.51 | blast007 | I don't think that belongs in 2.6 though |
| 00:31.00 | JeffM | Ok |
| 00:31.19 | JeffM | Itâs really only one new message in protocol |

| 02:17.03 | short_circuit | Seriously.. Did I just mess up my client or did all our permissions just change in channel? |
| 02:17.19 | FusionDude | are you showing banned? |
| 02:17.27 | short_circuit | Nope |
| 02:17.27 | blast007 | the only thing that changed was your name and your voiced status |
| 02:17.50 | short_circuit | Is anybody voiced? |
| 02:17.58 | short_circuit | err |
| 02:18.00 | blast007 | yeah, about half the channel |
| 02:18.04 | short_circuit | I mean |
| 02:18.32 | short_circuit | my client must be freaked out cuz d.. err.. I mean poop |
| 02:18.32 | FusionDude | the channel does require voicing |
| 02:18.52 | FusionDude | or did, last night |

| 02:24.32 | Flash | it auto-voiced spldart but unvoiced short_circuit |
| 02:24.42 | short_circuit | Guess I tangled with that somehoe. |
| 02:24.48 | short_circuit | somehow |
| 02:25.20 | blast007 | because the two accounts aren't linked and only one has auto voice set on the channel |
| 02:25.46 | short_circuit | accounts not linked? |
| 02:26.09 | blast007 | Information on short_circuit (account short_circuit) Information on spldart (account spldart) |

| 02:26.51 | Foo_man_choo | I'll have to look into that. I had gone through the trouble of linking all three accounts |

| 02:35.54 | spldart | So grouping is different then? |
| 02:36.36 | blast007 | nope, grouping is what I was referring to |
| 02:36.58 | spldart | I WAS grouped :( |
| 02:37.02 | spldart | not no more |
| 02:37.21 | Zehra | I think you need to change your name and add "group to it. |
| 02:37.42 | spldart | dunno if that explains all the peeps going de-voiced for a few minutes though :/ |
| 02:37.45 | Zehra | It's one of the slash command thingy from nickserve, I did it a while back. :p |
| 02:38.18 | spldart | I was grouped many years ago. :. |
| 02:38.53 | blast007 | I think they changed it at some point |
| 02:38.58 | blast007 | changed how it works, I mean |
| 02:39.24 | spldart | prolly years ago :( |
| 02:39.41 | spldart | welp... google is my friend after all ;) |
| 02:40.04 | Zehra | "We check your email and search terms" ;p |
| 02:41.02 | blast007 | DuckDuckGo ftw |
| 02:41.08 | Flash | ^^ |
| 02:41.26 | spldart | *insert smug smile here* |
| 02:41.27 | spldart | hehe |
| 02:41.57 | Flash | however, it is worth noting that "google" is now a generic term like "kleenex", even though they both technically refer to specific products |
| 02:42.14 | Flash | I'll bet most IE users don't realize they "google" with Bing |
| 02:42.39 | Zehra | I used to say you can Google, Bing, Yahoo or Blekko it. :P |
| 02:43.07 | spldart | Perhaps I should be on Tor |
| 02:44.12 | blast007 | the best is watching people type 'google' on the address bar, which google's for 'google', and then they click on the first result to get to the google homepage so they can do their search.. |
| 02:45.02 | Zehra | rofl |
| 02:45.04 | spldart | oh well |
| 02:45.16 | spldart | I'm on the freenode tutorial... |
| 02:45.19 | spldart | done this before |
| 02:45.22 | spldart | it's failing now |
| 02:45.25 | spldart | whatev's |
| 02:45.35 | Zehra | eek |
| 02:46.15 | Flash | I can't find all the freenode docs I used to |
| 02:46.33 | Flash | I'm going to need to reclaim this name in a couple of weeks, and don't remember how to do it |
| 02:48.32 | spldart | It's the flat earth society peeps! They are ddos ing freenode! XD |
| 02:49.59 | Flash | how can they do that? they don't have satellite communications.... |
| 02:50.15 | Zehra | It's really funny to think that some people believe the earth is still flat. :D |

| 02:51.20 | blast007 | Flash: the account was last used just 6 weeks ago.. don't think Freenode will drop it that soon |
| 02:51.29 | Flash | 10 weeks |
| 02:51.39 | Flash | that's the magic cut-off |
| 02:51.41 | blast007 | really? that's all? |
| 02:51.43 | Zehra | How fast does Freenode tend to drop accounts? |
| 02:51.46 | spldart | It definitely wont in my experience |
| 02:52.02 | Flash | they don't drop it, but you can request it after 10 weeks of inactivity |
| 02:52.08 | Flash | that's how I lost it :( |
