Yes, stefada, I understand that where you go Louloup goes
- and you're absolutely right:
Were it not for OldChap and VietOZ of XtremeSystems we would have had a hard time
landing the #4 spot in the 2018 THOR Challenge with SNURK and Friends.
And were it not for OldChap's mermaid costume,
I would never have had the WCG badges I do now.

Talking about badges: Could I ask you to put our precious new one into your safe, please, stefada?
Oh! you did that already. Thank you, my friend
Yes, it is far wider than usual.
Designing badges with a height limited to 60 pixel has frustrated nap for so long, I believe,
that I think he needed to do one of 0.5 mile width

I see what you mean, stefada.
However, I think you need to obtain the accept from the designer - NAP2614
What do you say, nap?

Well, stefada, sorry, as my mind hinted at, nap would not like his badge to be shrunk
He whispered to me that I wouldn't want to know what he thought about that idea ....
Soooo, this week is full of difficult tasks for you - BladeD's request
and the geometry of a very wide badge

Good Morning Base Campers!
Business
Just to let you know that we actually have the creator of our badge

NAP2614
on board with XtremeSystems now.
Welcome, nap - it's so very good to see you
I shall be out of town for a couple of days, so - again - my posts will be few and far between.
But, please, join XtremeSystems - even big boys can need a little help now and then

Chit-chat
Yesterday I went out with my Buddhist friend. We ate something unhealthy.
My dish was called 'dumblings' which was a good thing, because dumplings it wasn't.
Afterwards we were at a lecture about some of the new 2018 novels at the library.
My mind spins.
Today I'll attend a first aid and defebrillator course which my Senior Association thought would be
good for us volunteers to know about - after all we are among grown-ups!


EDIT: 'thought' added to complete an otherwise lacking sentence

Badges

Je comprend tout à fait NAP2614 ! C'est sa création, et il n'a pas envie qu'elle soit amputée (et étant un homme, je comprend très bien l'allusion).
Aucune difficulté que le badge soir large, c'est juste que ça fait un peu bizarre sur la sauvegarde. Tout simplement.

Pour la demande de BladeD, là par contre c'est compliqué ! En soit, faire un formulaire, c'est assez simple. Mais faire qu'il se génère à partir de la liste des badges, fait que je ne manipule que des indices. Par exemple, je ne sais pas où est le badge Andrax, c'est $badgePack[$i] avec $i qui vaut 4. C'est la grosse difficulté de la phase2 : Réussir à récupérer et traiter les données, mais en pensant comme ça. Je crois avoir trouvé comment faire, mais comme j'avais prévenu, je ne promet rien, que ça fait 12 ans que je n'avais pas écrit en php. A l'époque, j'aurais codé ça en une nuit, et ça serait optimisé. Là, ça va me prendre du temps, et déjà si ça fonctionne, je serais content.

Sachant que j'ai bien compris la 'vraie' demande, qui serait une phase 3 puis 4 !

Phase 3 : Que tu puisses rentrer la liste des participants à chaque trek Little Mermaid. Comme ça on rentre son pseudo au Base Camp, et le script génère notre sélection perso.
(analyser le mur des honneurs serait vraiment trop compliqué)
Phase 4 : Me remettre en tête la librairie graphique, pour ne pas avoir à faire une capture, mais que l'image soit générée automatiquement.

Hein ? Mais non, je ne me suis pas fait piéger ! J'ai du plaisir à faire ça, mais, j'ai un peu tout oublié ...

I fully understand NAP2614! It's his creation, and he does not want it to be amputated (and being a man, I understand very well the allusion).
No problem that the badge it's very large, it's just that it's a bit weird on the backup. Quite simply.

For BladeD's request, it's complicated! In itself, make a form, it's pretty simple. But to make that it is generated from the list of badges, makes that I only handle indices. For example, I do not know where the Andrax badge is, it's $badgePack[$i] with $i that is 4. This is the big difficulty of phase 2: Successfully recovering and processing data, but thinking like that. I think I found how to do it, but as I warned, I promise nothing, it's been 12 years since I had not written in php. At the time, I would have coded this in one night, and it would be optimized. There, it will take time, and already if it works, I would be happy.

Knowing that I understood the 'real' demand, which would be a phase 3 and 4!

Phase 3: That you can enter the list of participants for each trek, Little Mermaid. That way we enter our nickname at Base Camp, and the script generates our personal selection.
(analyzing the wall of honors would be really too complicated)
Phase 4: Put me in mind the graphic library, so as not to have a capture, but the image is generated automatically.

Huh? But no, I did not get trapped! I have fun doing that, but, I forgot everything ...



14th Birthday Challenge

Les résultats que j'ai pour la première journée.

Petite question : Vous recevez des WUs pour Ebola ? J'ai voulu ne faire que ça, que c'est ce qui rapporte le plus de points, mais je n'avais plus aucun calcul. J'ai corrigé très vite, en réactivant d'autres projets. Et je fais quand même 36'812 points pour 8 jours de calcul, mais si il y a moyen de faire plus.



The results I have for the first day.

Quick question: Do you receive WUs for Ebola? I wanted to do just that, that's what brings in the most points, but I had no calculation left. I corrected very quickly, reactivating other projects. And I still do 36'812 points for 8 days of calculation, but if there is way to do more.

OldChap,

J'ai relancé Zika, qui me semble le plus 'rentable', pour le concours.

Mon 'gros' PC (celui qui fait les calculs par 8) est sous Linux, l'ancien sous Windows 7.

Je ne vois pas comment faire plus, sans acheter un nouveau PC. Mais ça ne coûte rien de demander.

I relaunched Zika, which seems to me the most 'profitable', for the contest.

My 'big' PC (the one that makes the calculations by 8) is under Linux, the former under Windows 7.

I do not see how to do more without buying a new PC. But it does not cost anything to ask.
