One time I refreshed for like four hours waiting for a new round.

I was the host at the time.

I was also very drunk.

it'll work the same on any website as pressing F5 or Ctrl+R or whatever, just set to a specified time

successful purchase bots I'd imagine working more as... successful bots, scripted to both read pages, detect updates, and react accordingly

I did have a SMFFFC Round Email Notifier before that detected a new round in the topic list and sent an email alert.... but a) I'm too lazy to set it back up and b) reacting to an email notification is gonna be much slower than just seeing the topic pop up with an auto-refresher and posting

The version I have for ReloadEvery is 45, which is probably the version of Firefox it was updated for. I know by Firefox 56 it no longer worked and that came out in 2017. I never updated Firefox past 56 and instead switched to Waterfox, which is based on Firefox 56. Once I made the switch ReloadEvery and a few other things worked again.

Using Chrome with "Tab Auto Refresh"
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tab-auto-refresh/jaioibhbkffompljnnipmpkeafhpicpd
New tab on the second monitor, set to refresh every 10-20 seconds. Continue using the main monitor but glance over to the second monitor every half a minute or so for a split second
Every few minutes need to kill the Chrome tab and open a new one as Chrome loves memory leaks

Alternatively, text Dante and he can run a round if your net is down. You know, to warm him up for his full time hosting duties next year after his coup succeeds.

I'm not sure if people will find this neat or lame, but I spent quite a long time on this so I'm going to share it regardless! I don't have the artistic skill to make comics or anything like others have for SMFFFC in the past, but what I do have is free time and determination. One of the many hobbies I fall into and then out of every few years is cross-stitching, which I learned from my mother growing up. I felt the itch to do it again, and what better image to spend a hundred hours on than one honoring YRP?

Bear in mind, I'm basically an amateur cross-stitcher. I made the pattern myself using Brave Exvius sprites that I modified in some ways to limit the number of different shades and such. That meant I had to choose my own thread colors, and that's where things went a bit wrong. Yuna's face is yellower than the rest of her skin because I changed to a better color only after doing it. I should have gone a whole shade lighter with the orange parts of Rikku's hair to keep it from all blending together. Instead of black, I used a super dark grey for Paine's sword that wound up kind of blending with the grey of her clothing. I also made a mistake on Yuna's braid. I thought it was odd that the sprite turned her hair red so I changed it, only to finally look at a picture of X-2 Yuna afterwards and realize, whoops, she wraps that hair with something red. I outlined it with red thread, for however little that fixes it.

In theory I could rip out the stitches and do those parts over, but the risk of ruining the underlying fabric makes me wary. Besides, as my mother always said, if I wanted perfection I could've just printed out a picture. A cross-stitch is supposed to look like a cross-stitch, and I suppose there's art in the imperfections too.

On that note, here it is. YRP, in position!

Seriously looks so good, damn

If you ever want to make a special gift for someone doing a cross-stitch is something to keep in mind. I had a friend who did a cross-stitch of Mario from Mariokart as a gift, that was our game and Mario being my go-to guy, looked exactly like his SMK model, so good, really priceless...

Though I never asked her how long it took and I hesitate to ask you how many hours went into that either, I don't know anything about any of this stuff. All I know is that it looks great!

I definitely cherish the ones my mom made for me as a kid. I've considered doing something Animal Crossing related for my nephew to pass that feeling on, we played New Horizons quite a bit together online. I might wait until he's a bit older than five so that his interests can solidify, though. If I'd started some big Paw Patrol thing when he was three, I'd only just be finishing it now when he doesn't care about Paw Patrol anymore.

MartinFF7 posted...
I hesitate to ask you how many hours went into that either

It was basically all I did for the last three weeks. That's how I am with hobbies, I get into them 1000% for a month or so and then move on entirely. A hundred hours is my rough estimate. It was fun though, and I watched a bunch of random Netflix stuff while I was doing it.

It's a popular pattern so I can link you to one some other person has done! She recently finished Meowth, so only that bottom third remains
