A Warning to GCCG players....

[Kralik]

Well, yes, that is the fix I implemented.

[wlk]

I found a quick fix to fix the "token" bug but it would require an update. The question is... do I email wlk and wait for a response or just upload it without his consent?

You really think that would go unnoticed ?
No big deal, but actually, you should take care about applying changes without them being committed in the main sources and updated as usual, for if/when other repositories are used you won't be able to tell what one was used and get desynch'ed.

Ha, you caught me! I mean... I didn't do nuthin.

BTW, what is that token bug ?
If you have a fix, send it it me.

The token bug is that if someone adds like 1000000 twilight tokens at once the game will crash.

[wlk]

Oh that...
Well I guess there's many other way to crash the game by doing stupid/unexpected stuff.
You can try to protect yourself from this one, but the best solution is still to delete/ban the account of the moron.
Keep in mind that the game is designed for adult/responsible/fair people.
If at some point there is too many people disrupting the game experience, it can be turned to a private "club" you can only join if invited.

[Kralik]

I don't think there are too many troublemakers. Anyway, wlk, I just added a small line of code that adds/removes tokens if i > 25 and says something like, "Slow down thar laddy!" if you try to do more. I don't think people have found other ways to crash GCCG. Cheat, yes, crash, not yet.

EDIT: You could always make the error a "Say" where the player pompously declares, "I just tried to add 100000 tokens!"

Brilliant! (Although I am yet to see one of these token crashes occur).

Even better.

Actually those are fairly brilliant moves by Mager and Brian respectively.  Not that I condone cheating, but it's always fascinating when people find alternative ways to win. :-)

I think I might have to join this at some point...

They did not find these ways to cheat. Someone else probably did. And it doesn't give them a win but it just makes the game incomplete.
