This community still mostly has me running it and has 1 other mod but I typically like starting communities off with at least 2 mods. This community is a bit different in that theres the solution megathreads that need to be posted when a new day drops (and then unlocked when the global leaderboard fills up). When it has a dedicated mod team running it ill remove myself so its not admin run
If youre interested feel free to say so below
!advent_of_code@programming.dev
Note: to be a mod its preferred if your account is within the instance since lemmy doesnt handle cross-instance modding that well and this makes it so you have access to features added to pangora that other instances may not have
Could you give an idea of what is required/standard workflow? Dont want to put up my hand and then find out i cant do it.
For modding in general, baseline is checking and handling reports made by users. In addition to that though there can be looking over posts in the instance to make sure none break the rules (sometimes theres stuff like off topic posts made that arent reported)
This community specifically in addition to the above has the solution threads that would require to be posted when the new puzzle drops while AoC runs throughout december
Daily tasks:
I am well suited for the timezone stuff, thats just after midday for me.
Report handling likely wont be as responsive, due to timezone, but i’ll do what i can.
Happy volunteer to help out with this.
Alright ive modded you
Heres my copy paste for the days (every day I switch the day and the title at the top (if I send it before the challenge drops I just do insert name here and then edit it later). When https://adventofcode.com/2023/stats hits 100 for both nums then I unlock the thread and put an edit at the bottom saying its unlocked
(text here is slightly different since 0.19 dropped now so my warning about that is gone)
# Day 15: Lens Library ## Megathread guidelines - Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever) - You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ if you prefer sending it through a URL ## FAQ - What is this?: Here is a post with a large amount of details: https://programming.dev/post/6637268 - Where do I participate?: https://adventofcode.com/ - Is there a leaderboard for the community?: We have a programming.dev leaderboard with the info on how to join in this post: https://programming.dev/post/6631465 --- 🔒 Thread is locked until there's at least 100 2 star entries on the global leaderboardI also add a link to the new post on the sidebar calendar when I post it
Title is in the format
🎄 - 2023 DAY 15 SOLUTIONS -🎄
The title emojis ive been rotating through 7 different ones based on the day of the week, can see past days for ones ive used or you can do your own thing
You should get options in the format
When clicking on the three dots on a post (bar the local pin since thats admins only). Community pin pins it / unpins it and the lock locks / unlocks the thread to prevent people from posting in it
Will unmod myself from here after I see its going fine
(If I dont get a reply back by the stats hitting 100 for both puzzles today then ill just post the megathread to catch it for today)
Ah, yup, missed that one for todat, wasnt sure when youd mod me, ill set some alarms and make sure I get the next few days.
I nominate whoever you are
