I distinguish between someone operating in a personal capacity and someone operating in a commercial capacity. If this happened under the auspices of Asymmetric, then they are at fault. Otherwise, I don't think they did anything wrong. And you're not asking for the company with 2/3 members...

TPTB, meaning Asymmetric Games as a company, didn't do anything wrong, to my understanding.

It was a public accusation, and a public response. It was directed at them, though. It was objectively an apology, too, even if you think it wasn't sincere.

Why would they reply privately? Why would that be better? The entire issue boils down to keeping quiet about things they shouldn't have. If they were worried about PR so much, they wouldn't have confirmed the accusations at all. They had nothing to gain by doing that.

You're not wrong. Personally, I'm not sure whether this should be considered NSFW. I'm just thinking that might be TPTB's reason for hesitation. Ideally, this sort of thing would be covered in elementary school at the same time as things like "lying is bad", without any of the ridiculous stigma...

Upon further consideration, I suppose I can see why Asymmetric has been reluctant to address this more formally. It’s the same reason that the Reddit post about this is marked NSFW: they are worried about the youngest members of this community seeing it and being traumatized. I can’t...

I will say that Asymmetric should really use something more formal than Jick's personal Twitter account to respond to this, if only to demonstrate an understanding of how serious this is.

I think it is important to remember that good people can do bad things, and bad people can do good things, and everyone makes mistakes. Some of those mistakes deserve prison, and some do not, but they are still mistakes. I feel like people who equate KoL with the mistakes of one of the...

That's a bug with KoL, not KoLmafia. As such, I think the correct way to handle this is to get TPTB to fix it.

I finally assembled a full deck of lewd playing cards. Having done so, my recipe-discovering script continued to insist that it was missing from my discoveries, since KoLmafia does not have the "NODISCOVERY" flag on that recipe in concoctions.txt. The attached patch rectifies this.

You didn't have permissions to send a SIGTERM or SIGKILL signal to the process? Admittedly, SIGKILL probably would have left a huge mess.

The Camp Scout backpack drops a series of items in an initially consistent order, which can be easily parsed from after-combat messages. After going through the list, it starts printing one of several additional messages (which can also be parsed) and dropping one of the previous items (with an...

Well, that's two people in favor of it, one of whom actually wrote most of the relevant code.

Since the MMG is retired from KoL, I see no reason to retain the relevant functions, settings, and parsers in KoLmafia. If any script is still using them, I would personally prefer for them to break. Whether deprecated functions should be retained is ultimately a matter of developer preference...

It appears that several locations have been changed relatively recently to no longer allow wanderers. I first discovered this when it caused one of my scripts to get stuck trying to get a vote monster at the Daily Dungeon, and the wiki (more specifically, the erosionseeker based on information...

Thanks! I was actually planning to submit a patch for this next. I've been fairly busy with non-KoLmafia things, though, so I never got around to it.

You should just revert every single file KoLmafia uses to before this happened, rather than having to resolve potential conflicts between older files and newer ones. It’ll be way easier.

I can’t conceive of a scenario where the altered drop chance would be important, though. If you are running a familiar to get a drop, wouldn’t you continue running it until you get said drop? Well, this is conceptually the same thing as the turns_played proxy record field for locations, right...

We could try the descid first, and use the name only if we don’t have a match for it.

I was referring to the tangent about a decades-old movie, but that too.
