BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

Do we actually have the encryption program ready? I’d like to see it before I vote.

Let’s get at least one executable program up and running before we settle on one that we find acceptable.

I like the concept, but I’d want to see the program first

There’s a link to the source code on the word “here”.

If someone with the appropriate privileges would kindly set this up in the sidebar, it would make voting on this much easier.

yea, I see the source code, but it doesn’t make sense to me :p.  I’d like to see it in action some before I vote for it.

Well, actually, that’s no birthday attacks except by the person who first filled in the value.  Is the source code for the GNDT available anywhere?  It seems like making it keep hidden values might be better, but also more difficult.

Because all this does is keeps people from looking at the values, unless you’re the first person to put in a value.  If you want to have “secret” fields, I’m more than willing to track them myself, I can keep them in the same place I keep affiliations.

I’m pretty sure the source code is available, but how useful it will be depends. If you were trying to create certain values that are hidden except to certain players, it would be child’s play to an admin to find them out anyway. Now granted, I don’t think any of the admins would do such a thing, but it’s still possible.

If you were trying to modify the form to allow encryption of data before being sent to the GNDT, it would be possible, although I’m not sure if it actually be useful. GNDT   entries can only be so large, and thus there’s a limit to the amount of use we could get out of it. And if we only use it in this one dynasty, for one entry, I doubt it will be worth the work.

Also,  . A pointer to an outside location, on a wiki no less, is a bad thing to have. I remember what happened way back in the Zeroth Dynasty of the Switch, when Chronos Phaenon edited said wiki in a victory attempt.
