| 10:05:03 | raptor | ok ok, who is 'erinaarested'? |
| 10:05:12 | raptor | who keeps posting issues on the google code tracker |
| 10:05:19 | raptor | is that fordcars? or thread? |
| 10:07:19 | bobdaduck | I dunno. |
| 10:07:24 | bobdaduck | what kind of issues are they posting? |
| 10:07:31 | raptor | levelgen |
| 10:07:36 | raptor | -related things |
| 10:08:09 | bobdaduck | probably thread then |

| 11:23:04 | | Watusimoto has joined |
| 11:27:13 | raptor | I was thinking, Watusimoto, that maybe we should count 'official' games for rank? |
| 11:28:19 | raptor | because I have a high number of games played, and with that much 'experience' I *should* be a half-way decent player... but, uh, everyone seems to still be able to out-dogfight me |
| 11:33:23 | Watusimoto | well... what do you see as the purpose of rank? |
| 11:33:28 | Watusimoto | 1) demark skill |
| 11:33:36 | Watusimoto | or 2) reward longevity? |
| 11:33:58 | raptor | hmmm |
| 11:34:08 | raptor | never thought of it that way.. |
| 11:34:33 | Watusimoto | (off topic -- Invisible wants me to lobby you for the next contest theme: "Mines, mining, and minecraft") |
| 11:34:42 | raptor | ha! |
| 11:34:50 | Watusimoto | my thinking is that it is a reward for longevity |
| 11:35:15 | raptor | 'rank' in general is usually a mark of stick-to-it-ness |
| 11:35:19 | Watusimoto | official games would be nice, but I think we have too few of them at this point |
| 11:35:45 | Watusimoto | and remmber, we don't count test games from the editor, nor games that do not cmoplete for some reason |
| 11:35:59 | raptor | ok |
| 11:36:06 | Watusimoto | the only reason I can think of to make it official games only is that it's harder to game the system |
| 11:36:18 | raptor | I retract my suggestion |
| 11:36:41 | Watusimoto | but I think if we saw an unknown player rocket to the top of the ranks overnight, it would be easy to see from the game reports |
| 11:37:07 | raptor | yes... and easy to uhh.. punish |
| 11:37:14 | Watusimoto | ok, consider it retracted :-) |
| 11:37:20 | Watusimoto | punish, or probably just ignore |
| 11:37:30 | Watusimoto | (or add a little asterix next to the name, baseball style) |
| 11:37:32 | raptor | i meant database delete... |
| 11:37:37 | raptor | heh |
| 11:37:42 | Watusimoto | database delete, yes |
| 11:38:10 | Watusimoto | I'm also thinking that if someone cheated to get ahead on this metric, everyone would know and would punsih them socially |
| 11:38:41 | Watusimoto | (and really, any of our rewards are gameable, but i think there are few in the community who really want to cheat) |
| 11:40:10 | Watusimoto | maybe we need a column in the player reports showing official_games/total-games |
| 11:40:12 | bobdaduck | The people who cheat don't stay playing the game very long |
| 11:40:20 | Watusimoto | that was my other thought as well |
| 11:40:28 | Watusimoto | they cheat, they get all the goodies, they move on |
| 11:40:38 | Watusimoto | and then... who cares |
| 11:40:45 | bobdaduck | lol |
| 11:41:04 | raptor | sounds fine tome |
| 11:41:06 | raptor | to me |
| 11:41:14 | Watusimoto | a fine book indeed! |
| 11:41:22 | bobdaduck | Its annoying because then in the stats you have to scroll through five pages of fake players to get to the actual stats |
| 11:41:38 | Watusimoto | well, if we discover they are fake, we can delete |
| 11:41:57 | bobdaduck | Fake as in played for two days and never opened it again |
| 11:42:00 | Watusimoto | if it is a problem |
| 11:42:14 | Watusimoto | in two days racked up 8000 games and then bye bye |
| 11:42:29 | Watusimoto | all lasting 1 minute |
| 11:42:41 | Watusimoto | against an elizabot |
| 11:42:45 | bobdaduck | We "can" delete |
| 11:42:53 | bobdaduck | but in practice I doubt we will |
| 11:43:01 | Watusimoto | on a custom level we've never seen before |
| 11:43:07 | Watusimoto | I doubt we'll have to |
| 11:43:21 | Watusimoto | we could also add a suppress players table to the db |
| 11:43:31 | Watusimoto | where we keep a list of all suspected cheats |
| 11:43:38 | Watusimoto | ok, dinner time |
| 11:43:44 | Watusimoto | so... later! |
| 11:43:52 | bobdaduck | that would probably be a good idea |

| 13:52:15 | raptor | Watusimoto: I was thinking one of the contest levels would be a good one for publicity screenshot: http://imgur.com/tEtJbv5 |
