You seem to planning to do the scoring manually? Can I say with both admiration and a side-eye ... that's nuts! Good luck!
I am not an IT person, I personally have no other options. Willing for others to step in here. I'm really extremely busy most of the time, like most people here, and I keep asking for help, so it's more than welcome. However if no-one steps in, expect it to be a little clunky, old-fashioned, if you will, and potentially completely in limbo for periods of time (I'm not the ideal person for the job, i'm just the one who set up what others also had in mind). Of course zenmonkey, i'm not aiming this response personally at you.
I get it. I'd love to help but I'm currently over-stretched and can't reasonably take on tasks. I'll *think* about it.
Too many projects... I've promised not to take anything on that isn't covering the bills...
If someone does decide to do it, the code is there for a twitterbot and I can point people in the right direction...
Cool, I understand. There is another possibility too, if back in the newly created scoring thread: The 2019 365 Day Challenge - SCORING everyone posts their scoring themselves and as they do so, they quote or copy the leaderboard list as it stood with the previous person’s post immediately before them who has done the same (added themselves to the leaderboard where they fit in the overall standings with their score at the end of the month and their total score). With each post the leaderboard would grow, and it would just be one post per participant at the end of each month. This would make it a more joint operation and save me the hassle of chasing 50+ scores each month. I guess it could even remain in this thread then to keep it altogether.
