What exactly is "Checkpoints"? It says my trial has run out, but I've never been here before...
4:50 pm
Penguin101

i think u can just save the puzzle how it is when you press "save checkpoint" and when you make a mistake, u can return to that point and then try again from there without having to restart the whole thing...
4:51 pm
Penguin101

but i haven't tried it yet...it's just my theory...cuz that would make sense
4:51 pm
David Mitchell

Yes, that's right
4:51 pm
bangping

That's exactly what it is
4:51 pm
Penguin101

it also said my trial was run out when i signed up yesterday, but today it works...
4:51 pm
bangping

It also allows you to leave your progress on a puzzle if you can't finish it right now :)
4:51 pm
Penguin101

so maybe i still have 14 days to go... :)
4:52 pm
Penguin101

cool! :)

No marking needed on today's puzzle. :)
6:38 pm
mamabear

Hi David!
8:16 pm
Grendel

theres a greasemonkey script in the works that combines the auto-marking script, and adds client-side checkpoints, but you should still pay the $15 to go pro. (i'm too poor to afford it)
8:22 pm
caffeinatedelf

wow. checkpoints too?
8:22 pm
caffeinatedelf

i'm way too loyal to dr god to recommend that to anyone though :)
8:23 pm
Grendel

checkpoints are easy. infact the only thing keeping non-pro users from using the official checkpoints is a variable passed to the javascript running on the client.
8:24 pm
Grendel

the only pro features that arn't regulated by the client-side javascript are profiles & custom avatars
8:24 pm
caffeinatedelf

right
8:25 pm
Grendel

its very bad to do. but probably saves the server some extra work
8:26 pm
Grendel

i'm impressed by the work that went into ironsudoku
8:26 pm
caffeinatedelf

so am i, actually
8:27 pm
caffeinatedelf

it's a very well-running site for how many players there are
8:27 pm
Grendel

i can't remember where i saw it but someone stole the javascript for ironsudoku to use on their own sudoku game
8:27 pm
caffeinatedelf

dude! now that's just rude.
8:28 pm
caffeinatedelf

did they even credit dr god?
8:28 pm
Grendel

nope
8:28 pm
Grendel

i noticed it looked almost exactly like IS, looked at the javascript, and it was copied verbatim
8:28 pm
caffeinatedelf

grr.
8:29 pm
caffeinatedelf

it's hard to keep your stuff private on the web obviously - but common decency isn't that difficult to cultivate
8:29 pm
melly126

someone stole babble too
8:29 pm
caffeinatedelf

i suppose i shouldn't be surprised, lol
8:30 pm
melly126

i think dr god got them though
8:30 pm
caffeinatedelf

good
8:34 pm
