100% manual, the previous weeks list is the starting point for the next week.
Scandal sheet was started and supposed to be from 8am Saturday to 8am the following Saturday; so when there was a lot of competition there was some racing and strategy involved.
Went like clock work for a while like that then those times started to change to when ever Rick woke up and got to it.
The portal info deals with current time frames, the month isn't for June it's a month to the current day so it would be from June 20th till today. Same with the week and day lists. Completely takes out the competition that the list once had when things were active.
The portal lists for the player base is more than enough for now but it's sad to not have the list every week since it's been going, in some part, since 2006 and has only stopped when the site got attacked.
manual sucks a lot... Would it be relatively easy to make this automated, or at least mostly automated... As manual this is a tremendous effort for everyone to just say 'gz / slow week / so close'
I would have to think that someone would volunteer to make this automated (if Paul wouldn't) only issue I see is flood control. I don't know if Rick has special privileges to avoid flood control...
Site attacked?
