Proposal: Diagnostic Debugging
Times out 4-4. Failed by Brendan.

Add a section under the BotScript rule:
Within 48 hours of a bout (defined as 48 hours after a story post containing bout results is posted), an operator may privately message the Announcer for their bot’s BotScript execution string.
The BotScript Execution string contains the numbers corresponding to which triggers were activated during each round of play separated with a comma. If a scrambler was used, then it should be indicated as such with an S preceding the trigger that was executed. If no triggers were executed for any other reason then it should be indicated with an X.
The Arena systems were capable of getting information from the bots during a bout. But you just had to be set up to receive them… Interpreting them was as simple as building the script… Or at least that’s the theory.

It’s typically pretty easy to tell what exactly your bot did during a match, but I don’t mind voting this through if it’ll help out a little bit.

I was thinking this might provide a little insight in conjunction with the story post to determine what the opponent did so that you can refine the script.

I think I do get enough information from the Story Post to guess why my and my opponent scripts are; but I don’t mind that for clarity/other’s sake

- it ups the amount of record-keeping I have to do - I’m not wildly opposed to it so I don’t want this to fail on my objection necessarily, if players want it then I’ll happily put the work in

Is Josh allowed to tell us what our script actions were outside of an announcement currently?
