pagesource based turn notifier
Posted: Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:49 pm
so the turn notifiers that i have tried (which i will admit are few) are based off the RSS feed which can be off to up to 5 minutes from what ive seen
not helpful if you are waiting for a speeder to fill up
so i figured why not make one based on the page source
if you view the page source of the my games page you can see when your turn is ready
idk if this is possible or how to write scripts but if one was written that looks for
where all the XXX can be anything but the username in RED is what the user typed in, it could act as real time turn notifier.
is this possible?
