blackmarket problem... (in General)


The Pope [Serenity In Chaos] June 10 2012 8:01 AM EDT

I went into BM to vote and it says I did already this week, which I'm sure I didn't and I looked through names of people that did vote, I don't see my name... not sure what the issue is...

AdminNightStrike June 10 2012 9:18 AM EDT

Same for me. I'll investigate.

AdminNightStrike June 10 2012 10:10 AM EDT

Found the problem.. put in a temporary fix. Going to rewrite the BM table layout code. In the meantime, this is a long standing bug that is in GL's thread, so thanks for leading me to the fix.

AdminQBGentlemanLoser [{END}] June 10 2012 7:55 PM EDT

Hmm, can't find it on the known issues page. I'll check the old thread tomorrow (probably locked now?), bedtime now! ;)

AdminNightStrike June 10 2012 9:16 PM EDT

Probably locked, but aren't you a forum mod? You can still edit it and do the strike through and whatnot. I can make it so that you can post like admins can to closed threads.

AdminQBGentlemanLoser [{END}] June 11 2012 7:35 AM EDT

Found the old thread.

It's marked as fixed currently, due to being unable to be replicated.

I am guessing that this is related to server restarts outside of cache flush before all of that was fixed. I can't recreate it.

The temporary fix is in, if anyone continues to have a problem with the BM, could you post here please. ;)

Thanks!

I think I have now voted twice this week, as well.

AdminQBGentlemanLoser [{END}] June 13 2012 7:25 AM EDT

Same.

I used to remember being able to vote twice ages ago. Not sure if that's somehow intended?

The Chakram you voted for in the Black Market is now in Auctions

Nothing spawned?

AdminQBVerifex June 13 2012 1:51 PM EDT

Oh crap, blackmarket vote button is broke!

Dudster4 June 13 2012 1:54 PM EDT

Heh, my cm is getting spammed pretty hard about this Chakram.

Dudster4 June 13 2012 1:56 PM EDT

Oic. It isn't spawning so everytime someone votes now and it goes over the cap it spams the cm...interesting.

AdminNightStrike June 13 2012 2:38 PM EDT

Sigh. I'm on it.

AdminNightStrike June 13 2012 2:45 PM EDT

Now?

AdminQBVerifex June 13 2012 2:47 PM EDT

Well, we can't vote any more, but the Chakram hasn't spawned either.

AdminNightStrike June 13 2012 2:52 PM EDT

It will on the next vote.

I really need to just revamp the whole black market.

AdminNightStrike June 13 2012 3:17 PM EDT

Did it start the auction, tho?

AdminNightStrike June 13 2012 3:18 PM EDT

It didn't.... I missed a close bracket.

AdminNightStrike June 13 2012 3:19 PM EDT

Got it that time.

QBBast [Hidden Agenda] June 20 2012 3:19 AM EDT


So, how many times should we be able to vote? Gun has voted 5? times since the 10th. I think several of us are listed more than twice.

AdminQBGentlemanLoser [{END}] June 20 2012 4:14 AM EDT

Dilligaf has voted on the 13th, 15th, 16th, 18th & 19th.

It looks like it's possible to vote once per day at the moment. I've voted today, so will try to vote agian tomorrow. ;)

AdminNightStrike June 20 2012 9:44 AM EDT

Yeah, I thought I made a CL about that. I reduced it to some large degree for a short time. It'll go back up to something sensible soon. Probably when the Chakram can be salvaged.

QBBast [Hidden Agenda] June 20 2012 7:53 PM EDT

AdminNightStrike [The Knighthood] May 9 4:05 PM EDT Blackmarket auctions are going to last 2 days instead of 5 days starting tomorrow. This will be a temporary change.

I think I made it so that you can vote every day. I'm not sure. The code is confusing. This is also temporary, and will take effect at flush.


So, we can vote daily now but at some point in the future that will change automatically?

AdminNightStrike June 20 2012 9:09 PM EDT

No, at some point in the future, I'll put it back to normal.

QBBast [Hidden Agenda] June 21 2012 2:38 AM EDT


Thank you for the clarification.

QBBast [Hidden Agenda] June 21 2012 8:11 PM EDT


So can this "You have not yet voted this week." say "You have not yet voted today." ?
