Minor Malarbox changes. Also, holidays!

Post by Ari Rahikkala »

I was getting a bit fed up with the general strangeness of the ASC converter interface, so I changed it a bit. Using the new converter should, hopefully, be obvious enough... if it's not obvious, or if it's broken, feel free to yell at me about it.

As a further change, Malarbor should now remember the major Shirithian holidays and notify us about them under the "Last visit was" line up to a week in advance. Here are the currently defined holidays, based on the day of the current Gregorian year, ignoring leap days - fortunately we have a few years to work out the interactions between Shirithian and Gregorian leay days :p. This list is copypasted directly from the code, hence the HTML.

(14 => '<a href="http://shireroth.org/shirewiki/Oustfest">Oustfest</a>!',
48 => '<a href="http://www.shireroth.org/shirewiki/Batt ... meria">V-A Day</a>!',
50 => '<a href="http://shireroth.org/shirewiki/Jasonia_Day">Jasonia Day</a>!',
114 => 'Shireroth Day! Happy birthday, us!',
143 => '<a href="http://shireroth.org/shirewiki/Treesia">Treesia Day</a>!',
207 => '<a href="http://shireroth.org/shirewiki/La_Fiest ... 5C/%5C">La Fiesta De La B0O0/\/\!</a>',
217 => 'Glorious Founder Day! Happy birthday, Erik!',
218 => 'Foundation Day! Happy birthday, Apollo sector!',
287 => '<a href="http://shireroth.org/shirewiki/Blackrock">Blackrock Day</a>!',
355 => 'Day of the Dead!');

I have a feeling that this list isn't complete. Proposals for additions are welcome.

Could the Day of Mourning (11th July) be added, please? :)

EDIT: And the Hyperborean Fair on the 31th July. :document
From a distance I'm concerned about the rampant lawyerism manifesting itself in Shireroth currently. A simple Kaiserial slap on the wrist or censure by the community should suffice. - Jacobus Loki
Can't you see? I'm crazy! :tomcutterhamonfire :smashy

Can I steal the code off you for doing the holidays?
The character Andreas the Wise is on indefinite leave.
However, this account still manages:
Cla'Udi - Count of Melangia
Manuel - CEO of VBNC. For all you'll ever need.
Vincent Waldgrave - Lord General of Gralus
Q - Director of SAMIN
Duke Mel'Kat - Air Pirate, Melangian, and Duke of the Flying Duchy of Glanurchy

And references may be made to Vur'Alm Xei'Bôn (a Nelagan Micron of undisclosed purpose).
