<h3>A Cards Against Humanity clone.</h3>
<p>
This webapp is still in development. There will be bugs, but hopefully they won't affect gameplay
very much. To assist with development, <strong>all traffic on this server <em>may</em> be
logged.</strong>
</p>
<p>
The name you enter and your computer's IP address will <strong>always</strong> be logged when you
load the game client. Chat and gameplay may also be logged.
</p>
2012-03-16 23:59:50 +00:00
<p>Recent Changes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Early September, 2012:<ul>
<li>The Second Expansion has been entered.</li>
</ul></li>
<li>12 October, 5:00 AM UTC:<ul>
<li>User Preferences. Click the button in the top-right corner and you can hide the connect
and quit events, and ignore chat from specific users. These settings are remembered for the
next time you play the game. The game also remembers what name you used last time you
played.</li>
<li>Games without a password will sort before games that do, so you can find them easier.</li>
<li>Under-the-hood improvements.</li>
</ul></li>
<li>29 August, 6:00 AM UTC:<ul>
<li>Chat flood protection. You may only chat 5 times in any given 15 second period.</li>
<li>Splitting game chat out will happen next, this was just an easy bandage.</li>
</ul></li>
<li>21 August, 6:00 AM UTC:<ul>
<li>Ban list. Only admins can ban.</li>
<li>Chat from admins shows up in blue.</li>
<li>
Currently, the admin list contains just me and a close friend. I am not taking applications.
</li>
<li>Performance and stability tweaks.</li>
</ul></li>
2012-07-07 23:06:15 +01:00
<li>7 July, 10:00 PM UTC:<ul>
<li>Proper Card Set support. Currently, only I can define the cards and card sets, but I hope to
eventually let users define their own. This leads into the next item...</li>
<li><strong>The First Expansion</strong>! Sorry it took so long, I've been quite busy with real
work lately. Whenever The Second Expansion rolls around, it will be much easier for me to add
since I've put in the proper structure to deal with card sets.</li>
<li>I still haven't had time to separate out chat per-game, but that is the next thing on the
to-do list.</li>
</ul></li>
<li>15 June, 2:00 AM UTC:<ul>
<li>I haven't forgotten about this! The First Expansion cards are typed up (you probably have
seen them accidentally showing up), I just need to make a proper way to choose what card decks
to use in games. I will try to do that this weekend! In the mean time, I've removed the dummy
marker cards you've also probably noticed from showing up (and also the First Expansion cards).
</li>
</ul></li>
2012-03-23 07:01:47 +00:00
<li>23 March, 7:00 AM UTC:<ul>
<li><a href="https://github.com/ajanata/PretendYoureXyzzy/commit/368e890c07d29e1b810821ac6f76c983227ab7c1">
Fixed a deadlock which caused the server to grind to a halt occasionally.</a> At least, I
fixed one deadlock. I looked over the code a bit more closely to see if there were any other
potential deadlocks, and didn't see any. I did go ahead and rework some of the other code to
make it less likely. Hopefully this will fix the problems with the server randomly crapping
out.</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/ajanata/PretendYoureXyzzy/commit/bc4f0818f18f106e92590c4510210fc28847ef58">
Fixed the chat log in Opera.</a></li>
</ul></li>
2012-03-19 04:22:56 +00:00
<li>19 March, 4:20 AM UTC:<ul>
<li>Added game passwords.</li>
<li>Added Show Game Options button in-game to see the game's options. The host cannot change
options while the game is in progress.</li>
2012-03-19 04:22:56 +00:00
</ul></li>
2012-03-18 18:45:27 +00:00
<li>18 March, 6:40 PM UTC:<ul>
<li>Added version 1.2 Cards Against Humanity cards. Game host can choose between original, new,
or both at once.<ul>
<li>Cards that were slightly reworded in the new version were updated instead of replaced
here, so even if you pick original you may get some newly reworded cards.</li>
</ul></li>
<li>Hopefully fixed a rare crashing issue.</li>
</ul></li>
<li>17 March, 1:30 AM UTC:<ul>
<li>Fixed AFK timer skipping people who played at least one card for a multiple-PICK card.</li>
<li>Increased AFK timeouts to 45 + 15 * PICK seconds and 40 + 7 * PICK * PLAYERS seconds.</li>
</ul></li>
2012-03-16 23:59:50 +00:00
<li>17 March, Midnight UTC:<ul>
<li>Initial AFK timer support added. This will skip (or kick, if there are not enough players) a
player that takes longer than 15 + 15 * PICK seconds to play, or skip a judge that takes longer
than 20 + 5 * PICK * PLAYERS seconds to select a winner. If a player is idle for two consecutive
rounds, they will be kicked from the game. All of these numbers are adjustable; if the timeouts
are too long or too short, please let me know!</li>
<li>The game host can specify the Awesome Point goal from 4 to 10.</li>
<li>The game host can specify the maximum number of players in a game from 3 to 10.</li>
</ul></li>
</ul>
<p>Known issues:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Do not open the game more than once in the same browser.</strong> Neither instance
2012-03-13 05:20:04 +00:00
will receive all data from the server, and you will not be able to play. I have an idea on how to
fix this, but I haven't had time to do so.</li>
2012-01-30 08:33:11 +00:00
<li>This game was extensively tested in <a href="http://google.com/chrome">Google Chrome</a>.
It should work in all recent versions of major browsers, but it may not look 100% as intended. If
you find a major issue, please
<a href="mailto:ajanata@socialgamer.net?subject=PYZ%20bug">email me</a> with a screenshot and the
name and version of the browser you are using, and I'll try to fix it.
2012-01-30 08:33:11 +00:00
</li>
2012-01-31 00:31:08 +00:00
<li>You may not always see your card in the top area after you play it, but it has been played.
Also, sometimes the card will display in the top area but be small. I have no idea why either of
these happen.</li>
2012-01-30 08:33:11 +00:00
<li>If you refresh in the game, an error will pop up in the log briefly before the refresh
happens. It is safe to ignore.</li>
2012-01-31 00:31:08 +00:00
<li>You may see an error after joining a game. As the error message states, this is safe to
ignore. I will figure out a way to make this not show up.</li>
<li>Interface elements may not be perfectly sized and positioned immediately after loading the
page if your window is sufficiently small. Resize the window to fix.</li>
<li>A player joining the game in progress may have a slightly incorrect representation of the
game state until the next round begins.</li>
<li>Reloading the page when the winning card is displayed does not display the winning card
again.</li>
2012-03-16 23:59:50 +00:00
<li>Played cards seem to blank when someone joins or leaves. You may have to refresh the page
2012-01-31 07:54:36 +00:00
to see the cards again if you're the Card Czar.</li>
</ul>
<p>Current limitations:</p>
<ul>
<li>Support for Black Cards with "pick" and/or "draw" annotations is rudimentary. When you play
your cards, it does not group them until the judging starts. Also, when other players play cards,
you do not see any progress from them until they have played all 2 or 3 cards, and it only shows
a single face-down card for them. I will try to make this look nicer, but it works.
<ul>
<li>Also, you cannot un-do your first (or second) card: Once it's played, it's played.</li>
<li>While judging, only one card will be highlighted. It does not matter which card in a group
you click, the game will figure it out.</li>
2012-03-13 05:20:04 +00:00
<li>I know that when you have a lot of players, especially with Pick 2 or Pick 3, it gets very
hard to read, and cards overlap (and underlap) your hard, and are hard to click sometimes.
I'll work on this soon. You can resize the window to try to help if you're having problems
for now.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>All games and the main lobby share the same chat.</li>
2012-01-31 00:31:08 +00:00
<li>You can't bet Awesome Points to play another card, and I am unsure if I will add this.</li>
</ul>
<p>Future enhancements:</p>
<ul>
<li>There may be an option to display who played every card.</li>
<li>A registration system and long-term statistics tracking may be added at some point.</li>
<li>Support for custom Black and White cards will also likely be added, with a game host option to
use them or just the stock cards.</li>
</ul>
2012-01-30 08:33:11 +00:00
<p>
If the game seems to be in a weird state, refresh the page and it should take you back to where
you were. It would be helpful to take a screenshot and
<a href="mailto:ajanata@socialgamer.net?subject=PYZ%20bug">email it to me</a> along with a general
description of the problem and the time that it happened (include a time zone please!).
