Proposal: Consulting the Almanac

Timed out 15 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan.

In Rule 2.11, replace “Daybreak occurs at 00:01 on March 1st 2010” with:-

Daybreak occurs at 23:55 on February 28th 2010

And in Rule 2.11.1, replace “As a weekly action, and if the Lights are On” with:-

As a weekly action, if the Lights are On and if Daybreak has not yet occurred

Currently there’s a tiny sixty-second gap between the new week starting and Daybreak occurring, which means that anyone with the alertness or the scripting skill can fit in one extra call to the police. This bumps Daybreak back six minutes and closes that loophole, since I assume most players won’t have a chance to use it.

for Cronjobs have been written against similarly narrow time windows in the past. (Agorans get scared when they see an email from .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) saying “test” or whatever, as it probably means I’ve set up a cron job and want to know if it’ll work.)

Boo, my mistake for letting the loophole out of the bag…
