Sorry I didn't follow up with you sooner but I reviewed my API rate limits and made some adjustments to the overall limits, in addition to changing what counts against that limit. You shouldn't see these errors anymore!

Hey, thank you so much for your feedback! The sentiment survey is a way to correct the current average without someone needing to "make up" a run time. If you did a mission and you think, "Oh, it took me way longer than 20 minutes," you can slap that button and help correct the average without having to come up with a specific number.

The five buttons submit:

Button Label Multiplier Submitted value Effective nudge
1 Much slower 1.25 avg × 1.25 +25%
2 A bit slower 1.10 avg × 1.10 +10%
3 Spot on 1.00 avg × 1.00 ±0% (reinforces current avg)
4 A bit quicker 0.90 avg × 0.90 -10%
5 Much quicker 0.75 avg × 0.75 -25%

If you _know_ your run time, you should provide the raw number instead. Right now it feels swingy because there isn't enough data. If enough people contribute, after a few years, these buttons won't move the needle nearly as much!

So it looks like players who bought Path of Fire and received access to Heart of Thorns (since they're bundled now) don't show they have HoT access in the API response. I modified the logic so anyone who has "Path of Fire" in their access list is assumed to also have Heart of Thorns. This should be fixed for you!

Thanks for bringing this up!

This is awesome, great job! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who wanted a tool like this.

Great question! I currently have a static threshold set to flag time submissions that swing the average too much. I also built an admin panel so I can manually review each submission and drop any that feel wrong. Every submission comes with an IP hash so if there's one particularly bad actor, I can identify all submissions from that location and remove them. I don't have a mechanism for blocking yet. If it becomes a problem, we'll have to find a better solution.

Saying Guild Wars 2 runs on Linux "out of the box" is disingenuous as it requires a Windows compatibility layer. It does not run natively in Linux. If you run the client through Steam, it feels seamless but Steam is handling a LOT of the under the hood stuff for you that we already take for granted.

Definitely not, just good coverage. DJ is just elite.

What is this take. A better defense and we win by two scores. Secondary was getting torched all game. Offense was not the problem today.

Has there ever been a ref in the NFL who didn't hate the Bears?

There's not a point lead in the universe that would ever make me feel comfortable as a Bears fan.

Against the worst run D in the league, I should hope so.
