Q: Don't tell me to log in to vote if I've already been auto-logged in

Ilmari KaronenOK, we've all seen the "Welcome back [USERNAME], you've been logged in. Click here to refresh the page." auto-login notification bar, and I understand why it works the way it does. And having the up- and downvote buttons work as anonymous user feedback for non-logged-in users is also a nice touc...

 
10:04 AM
@Uni this might not be relevant anymore. Ilmari can you please try to reproduce this? I suspect that with the recent login changes, there is no such banner anymore. — Shadow Wizard 33 secs ago
 
@ShadowWizard no, but the login popup is still the same — Unity 3D 15 secs ago
 
 
2 hours later…
12:00 PM
@Yvette yay! Lets play :3
 
@ber The GM who did the simul yesterday is doing another one right now (with more time for him :P), if you want to join, en.lichess.org/simul/jh8AVOYB
 
sure!
I am nervous...
 
because he's a GM? :P
 
yeah....
 
Are you up for a competition? The one of us who survives the most moves, wins.
 
12:06 PM
sure
 
we should decide on what "surviving" means though
 
Tho that sounds like you are less determined to beat him :P
 
if it's an endgame and if it's KQ vs K and he has the queen, it's resign-worthy, but you have less moves then
 
umm.. maybe the no. of moves before cM?
 
@berserk You can try that if you want. gl :P
 
12:07 PM
lol ofc I will try :P
 
@berserk Ah, that's a good idea. Number of moves before there's a forced checkmate.
@berserk I'll try too, but it's... extremely unlikely that I'll win.
 
whipsers: with my secret chess engine
kidding :P
 
Be warned, I'm a moderator. I can ban people. :P
 
lol
I never used chess bot in my entire life.
And too lazy to even download.
And I am a fair player, in any game.
Tho, my mind has an in-built chess engine, which I can't ignore :P
 
12:12 PM
He gonna play 30 ppl at once?
 
yup
that's the point of a simul
 
cool
 
lol someone resigned at move 1
 
lol
@Pro where is your queen pawn?
 
exchanged
for his king pawn
 
12:16 PM
cool
 
user310756
@sha @ber how do I do that?
 
now you are
 
user310756
ah I see
 
but he can just fork your knight and bishop
so not for long :P
 
user310756
12:20 PM
I will do that @sha @ber @pro we are deploying a site on Thursday night, so will be a bit busy next few days, then some time for chess ;)
 
yay
 
damn blunder
 
aww
I might have blundered, idk
I have a piece for two pawns but my position is totally bad
 
12:36 PM
yeah, king exposed
 
yeah
 
but still, not that bad
 
probably better than a bishop blundered
 
haha yeah
can't wait for analysis
 
yeah, it's going to be interesting
 
12:38 PM
Interesting is an understatement for me. I am chewing my hankey off atm...
at least you are a piece up :P
 
heh
my exposed king is enough compensation
 
lol
nice move!
 
thanks
 
dang, one more bummer
 
aww
 
12:44 PM
tho it gonna open up my way
 
oh, he doesn't want to exchange queens in my game
uff I almost grabbed the g2 pawn
then I saw the pin that he could do
 
nice
you got a hell lot better! I don't think I can beat you now :P
 
yeah my rating went like 100 points up since we last played
 
hoping for draw with time
 
he's getting terribly low on time...
draw? win you mean
 
12:48 PM
yeah right :P
he got my queen
 
unless, of course, he can capture all of your pieces before he runs out of time. Then it's a draw because of insufficent material :P
ouch
 
man, GMs are real deal
I need to practice.
 
yeah they are
his pawn storm on my king is scary :s
 
haha indeed
but he is out of time
 
it's mate in one for you
 
12:52 PM
I lost/
dang lol few secs
 
yeah, wow
meanwhile, I'm struggling to survive in my awful position :P
 
lol
he should've moved rook to h8
 
Rh8? how, my queen is on there
 
sorry, h1
 
ah
his bishop on d3 is so annoying
 
1:05 PM
you are also giving him hard time lol
 
yeah, but well, now he can exchange queens and then he's two pawns up
 
rook g1
nah, he can cM :P
rook fork :)
who knows? maybe I am that GM :P
 
not just that
 
cM
 
yeah
spiky analysis graph
 
1:08 PM
yeah, tho you pushed him well
 
I even had a minor advantage somewhere
 
yeah
 
oh, I think I won the contest between us :P
 
lol yeah
I gonna practice now.
Wanna go for a match? :P
 
sure :P
 
1:14 PM
time?
 
10+10?
that's how I just challenged you
 
accepted
 
why don't you move?
 
I don't even wanna do analysis on the last game...
 
I made 0 inaccuracies :P
 
1:25 PM
And I made no normal move...
except opening, I believe
 
):
 
2:02 PM
:|
 
c:
 
2:29 PM
@Sha wanna play a match? I am tired of losing, so I wanna end the game with a win :P
yeah yeah, I am taunting you :P
 
lol
 
lol poor @ber! Maybe later.... 30 minutes or so. :)
 
yay! ok ping me
 
But ordinary chess, not atomic or reverse or all those weird rules
 
yeah, I am ordinary chess guy
 
2:33 PM
oh, @Pro isn't so I assumed you play the atomic with him
 
haha I won't play atomic with him :P
 
@ShadowWizard it's not because I play atomic a lot, that I don't play standard chess anymore :P
but now I finally became stronger than @ber in standard chess
 
yeah yeah, but not for much time :P
 
you're gonna practice aren't you :P
 
I will train my brain in hell :P
 
2:35 PM
lol
 
Better than fapping, that's for sure.... more productive.... :D
 
haha, yeah
but the video @mav send is making me cry to fap ;_;
 
lol still didn't watch all of it, just the beginning
 
lol and you said nice one
 
From what I've seen... ;)
 
3:08 PM
@ber OK let's have a quick game!
Let me login first...
Forgot how I logged in before, lol.... created new user
 
@Sha I can set an email on your first account so you can reset password.
 
@ProgramFOX thanks, but no need... don't think I had many wins there. :/
Better have a fresh start, lol
And this time I put a simple password, should remember it. :D
 
Okay... don't hesitate to ping me if you want to get an email address associated with Shadow_Wizard anyway.
 
@ProgramFOX thanks!
Now where's @ber?
@ber where are you?
@ber you fapping again??? :D
 
lol, he's gone
> seen 9m ago
 
3:14 PM
throwing chess board on @ber
 
if he was still lurking it would be less than 2m
 
Well, 15 minutes for me before I must go...
Game is up to 10 minutes usually, right?
 
depends on the time control
by taking 5+0 you force it to be <=10minutes
 
yeah, that would be fine
 
@Sha I am here!
Lets play!!!!!
@Sha !!!!!!
@Sha @Sha
:(

Well, 15 minutes for me before I must go...
Its still 8 mins left.
last seen: 46 secs ago...
 
3:23 PM
hmm.... ok start the game @ber
 
I know you are there
lol
 
If I'm late I'll blame you :D
 
Maybe tonight again, i.e. in ~5 hours
Good game, cya!
 
yay
cya

Custom theme!

This room was placed in timeout for 1 second; boo
hmm...
 
??
 
6:31 PM
@ShadowWizard what?
guys need help with a survey
@Unity3D bye
lol you are here
I saw you dropped.
Now you are not here ._.
Anyways
please leave your votes c:
cya
 
@berserk still not sure, new RO ability...
(think it was mod only power, now made available for RO as well)
@Unity3D bug: missing digits
@berserk you linked to the results, better link the poll itself ;)
This room was placed in timeout for 10 seconds; foo
hmm....
@Pro we can also put frozen room in timeout, think it's a bug?
 
6:47 PM
Perhaps. But it's not really harmful is it?
 
Nope, just useless. :)
Is the timeout action documented anywhere? @Pro
(i.e. what exactly it's doing)
 
idk
it's new, so maybe not
but it's pretty clear what it is, isn't it?
 
I think it was mod only power for a while
 
it's like a temporary freeze but room owners (and of course mods) can still talk
 
@ProgramFOX what about users with explicit write access? Can they talk or not?
Those are the things which aren't clear. :)
 
6:49 PM
interesting question
know what? let's find out!
I'll get my bot running
 
yay!
Give it explicit write access
 
it has
 
oh, from the Gallery days, lol
I was right

Q: Vote to timeout

badpPlease allow us to vote to timeout a room if the discussion starts degenerating or otherwise going off-topic. Unfortunately this is a mods only feature and mods aren't always around. I think six votes in five minutes should be enough.

> Unfortunately this is a mods only feature
It exists for years.... ;)
 
I meant
it's new for ROs
 
oh, yup
 
6:53 PM
Bot started.
 
>>cat hello!
 
@ProgramFOX hello!
 
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; agiepopoapogeoio
>>cat test again
crashed
nope, @Sha, write access users can't
 
hmm... so like freezing the room indeed
agiepopoapogeoio? huh?
 
This room was placed in timeout for 3 minutes; testing...
@ShadowWizard random keyboard smashing
 
6:54 PM
lol
povgdign flszidjf
*This room was placed in timeout for 55 seconds; nested timeout
*
lol
another bug
 
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; markdown
Timeout cleared
 
@nic will probably find tons of bugs
 
(clearing timeout can be done by setting a timeout with 0 seconds)
 
nice!
heh
> Maximum timeout is one day (86400 seconds)
 
lool
haha, when I put '-1' as amount of seconds and it doesn't do anything, I went to the developer tools of Firefox and found this as response to the request:
> I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.
 
7:01 PM
lol
I wonder though why Dave and not Steve..‌​. :P
 
it's a movie reference
to "2001: A Space Odyssey"
 
yup, I know you love it :D

Q: Was HAL correct?

raxacoricofallapatoriusIn an exchange between astronaut Dave Bowman and the HAL 9000 computer aboard the Discovery in 2001: A Space Odyssey, HAL asserts that he cannot allow Dave Bowman to deactivate him because doing so would jeopardize their mission: Dave Bowman: Open the pod bay doors, HAL. HAL: I'm sorry, ...

 
I may or may not have named my bot after the computer :P
 
you already said you did... :D
 
lol I know
 
7:06 PM
And time for a shower.... cya!
 
cya
 
Oh @Pro is there a way to see if a room is in timeout? From the outside, I mean?
 
7:48 PM
This room was placed in timeout for 20 seconds; hmm...
@ProgramFOX umm.. how did you do that? I just tried setting timeout of 0, and nothing happened
Also, Shog says here:
> timeouts cannot be canceled
 
@ShadowWizard Uhm... perhaps you were too late? I don't know, it worked for me.
I'll ask Shog.
This room was placed in timeout for 3 minutes; I&#39;ll just test this thingy again
Timeout cleared
 
I just did the same thing.
in Tavern on the Meta, 1 min ago, by Shog9
@ProgramFOX oh, does that work now? Cool. Edit the answer, please.
I'm editing it right now.
 
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; test clear
umm.. it doesn't work for me @Pro
 
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; For not liking my dp...
w
lol I can still post
 
8:00 PM
lol
 
Timeout cleared
aha!
 
RO can post @ber
 
@Sha you still have to provide a timeout reason.
 
oh I see
 
@ProgramFOX I did
 
8:01 PM
perhaps rate limiting? idk
 
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; how I clear you?
Timeout cleared
huh!
 
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; yolo
 
@ShadowWizard Uhh, I don't think so.
 
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; again?
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; Does it stack?
this is some weird shit...
 
@berserk nah, most likely last one sticks
@ProgramFOX I'll post a feature request then. :)
 
8:05 PM
heh, go ahead
 
(should be something like frozen rooms, i.e. different background color)
 
@ber They probably don't stack, otherwise using '0' to clear the timeout wouldn't work.
 
hmm
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; hullo
I tried putting timeout with 0 now, not cleared.
 
did you remember to put a timeout reason?
 
yeah
I tried with and without it.
 
8:08 PM
I'll check it
 
And why don't it clear automatically after time is over?
 
maybe rate limiting
@berserk it does, you just won't get a message
 
oh
 
This room was placed in timeout for 2 minutes; timeouttttttttttttttttttttttt
 
lol dat msg
 
8:09 PM
Timeout cleared
 
eh
 
works
perhaps I was just too slow
 
self pinch to check if dreaming
 
if it's really rate limiting, I gotta be fast
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; timeouttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
 
This room was placed in timeout for 2 minutes; yolooooo
 
8:10 PM
> You can perform this action again in 3 seconds
yes
@ber rate limiting is an issue
 
well, it don't even give me such error
 
that's right, I had to look for it in the console
 
ok let me try, I will wait for few secs
oh lol
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; wait for meeeeeeeee
 
I'll post an FR to show the actual errors.
 
Timeout cleared
yay!
FIR? :P
 
8:11 PM
feature request
 
hehe
Well, it seems like glitch to me.
Like it must show the error.
As it gives for all rate limits.
 
yes perhaps it's a bug, perhaps not
whatever I can just post it as a feature request
let's assume that it's no bug :P
 
assumptions.. sigh :P

Q: When /rooms/timeout/... returns an error, it isn't clearly visible

ProgramFOXWhen the room timeout feature returns an error (for example due to rate limiting, "You can perform this action again in 3 seconds"), you don't get a message that tells that there's an error. For other rate-limited actions (e.g. starring), it shows up the actual error in a notification bar at the ...

 
@Pro @Sha up for some chess?
 
8:18 PM
sorry, no time @ber :|
 
Not yet... posting another feature request now, then got some stuff to do at home... :/

okay, later then ^^
@ShadowWizard lol

@Sha hey! Ju dedn't put teh bug tawg en ur editz :P
 
Done!

Q: Indicate when room is in timeout by a different background color

Shadow WizardWhen a chat room is frozen or deleted, it means ordinary users can't post messages, and we see those rooms with a gray background in the rooms list. However, currently there is no special background when a room is in timeout, but ordinary users still can't post. They find out only when entering ...

 
8:23 PM
lol
 
@berserk because I don't think it's a bug, they never expected people to clear the timeout less than 3 seconds after placing it... ;)
 
oh
sorry, don't know its history...
As it is listed in the room functions for an RO, I thought it as a bug...
thinking like a normal user
 
seriously :P
btw isn't there any limit on timeout?
This room was placed in timeout for 1 minute; w
 
@berserk yes, one day. (82000 seconds or so)
