Your code missed one person. That person moved from Bellocan to Mardia... and I think I know why.
Do I get a cookie if I point out a glitch?
I think your code missed that person because that person moved worlds AND changed names at the same time. Does your code take that into account?
Nope, that's a known limitation of it because at that point there is very little that can be used to tie the person together unless they have the exact same avatar as the previous day.
Even a minor change in the wardrobe means it'd take manual comparison to tell who was who, and if they drastically change themselves the day of the SC before they move they can be fairly undetectible.
No cookies on SP, settle for a or a ?
Figured that as well. It'd be too much of a bother to check level, isImmigrant, exp, overall rank and avatar after a namechange. I assume... You could eventually create a sudoku-formed function that leaves overall-ranks open if they've moved in ranks and such, finding lost people on ranks from yesterday. Though, in practice, that would be a lot of wasted time.
Yeah, if anyone is that interested in hiding themselves, more power to them. This is definitely at a more casual level, although I may include avatar comparisons to catch the more obvious same-person transfers.
That will then lead to the request for all name changes though, which has similar difficulty in tracking since Name is one of the least malleable identifiers with Job being the only one that never changes but is virtually useless as a true identity key.
B>more NLs for Bello... Now peter left too lol.
