This chat, apparently, is a gigantic coding horror

PS P A E C N
+ % & = , \n
OK that explains why it's PS and not P.
Also random thought, but why not just use escape characters like programming languages do? So e.g. instead of = you have \e, instead of & you have \a, etc. (and the escape character itself is escaped, i.e. \\). Replace \ with whatever character would be more suitable.
OK, it still isn't nice but would work with the naive method of replacing and also would reduce bandwidth as a bonus =P (there's risk of invalid escape sequences, but at worst they just will stay unencoded as-is)
Posted a message to staff - so hopefully the right people will get the message eventually (Of course USA is asleep atm ) - till then I can only suggest playing the many entries done in the just-past Week of Awesome and post feedback to the various folks who made the games. Either that or do your homework .
edit Meh: why is this in coding horrors.....DSM,,,start a thread in the right forum next time (instead of piggybacking)!
The crucial bug in this brainfart of a code is not encoding "_" and not the order (it would still be broken regardless of order - the order does not matter, it just makes it worse).
Yep, deserved entry in coding horrors (our own daily wtf of sorts).
so it was you stormy and i was starting to blame fastcall, show me ur ass.
This thread just took an interesting turn...

Guilty as charged. This is my ass in jail....again. Damn I might be headed into habitual :(
I didn't do anything :( OP broke the chat by posting this :( but it works now so is all cool :cool:
