During krampushack, your secret santa's logs will be hidden from you to maintain the surprise a little bit longer.

Just to clarify, does that mean all of the logs posted during the duration of the event will be hidden from public view until the event concludes?

On your feed, just the logs posted by your Secret Santa. With some deduction, you could probably figure out who that is, but I recommend not looking into it or giving it much thought.

As for public, probably everybody is posted, so make sure you're logged in before looking otherwise you're cheating :o:o:o!!

That's what I figured. I'll try not to peek. :-X

Edit:
Are the assignees randomly selected by software? Here's to hoping for good RNG.

Just a heads-up: the click-able link in the "KrampusHack 2020 starts tomorrow!" e-mail points to last year's address and 404s, despite what the text suggests. Here's the working link: https://tins.amarillion.org/krampu20/secretsanta/.

The excitement is brewing! :D

It's starting soon. Thanks for the updated link Eric :-)

For me the click-able link points to the KrampusHack 2019 secret santa which made this confusing. I think I know the correct one now. Maybe put a link also in the Rules page on the website, not just the email (since that has the wrong one...):

[edit:] I guess for people who were not in the 2019 one it leads to a 404 error, but for someone who was it just shows your the wrong person's 2019 log :P

the email said:

<li>You will be able to view your Secret Santa, when it's drawn,
by opening this link: <a class=3D"moz-txt-link-freetext"
href=3D"https://tins.amarillion.org/krampu19/secretsanta/">https:=

What Elias says is true. It's showing me my last year failure...
Guess what, having your wife at 8 month pregnant and a 3.5 yo energic young boy was not helping...
That year I may have more time as the little girl is already nearly 1 yo and the big boy is now 4.5 (and also my wonderful half / my wife can help a lot taking care of them when I can not/ am coding ^^).
That message was typed with little bad girl on my knees. She's saying hello to all ;-)

A thousand apologies!. As some of you figured out already, I sent out the wrong link by email. I copy/pasted the message from last year. While I updated the text of the link, I neglected to update the link itself.

Everybody please double-check that you've got the right Secret Santa now, I'd hate for somebody to discover the mixup halfway through...

On your feed, just the logs posted by your Secret Santa. With some deduction, you could probably figure out who that is, but I recommend not looking into it or giving it much thought.

That's almost right. The 'spoiler' flag will hide posts from the public AND your Secret Santa, until the end of the competition. So if you're not logged in, you won't see any spoiler posts right now. If you are logged in, you'll see the spoiler posts except the ones of your secret santa.

Could you be more specific?

I think that he's exaggerating a whole lot. :P It works fine. It has its share of ruffles, but that's understandable given that it's only used a few times a year and you have a busy life. :) Aside from the email glitch I'm not aware of any other breakage currently.

By the way, no spoilers on IRC please! Somebody found out through IRC who their secret santa was...

Same here. No slow speeds or anything, seems normal to me.

All right, I'm glad it's mostly working.

I'm still making some fixes here and there. For example, you'll notice the spoiler posts are now always labeled (instead of just on your own posts), hopefully it will be less confusing this way.

Mark was like hey, cool guy, and then he found out who I was. ;D ;D ;D "Oh.... its... you"

Blown away by how many custom tools Mark has built. Really impressive.

I was mostly bummed because I couldn't remember what your last name was when you said you were Chris. All I could think of was your avatar.

Hey Amarillion, the TINS site 505s when submitting a log that includes emoji.

Mark reported something similar last year, but it only happens with some emoji.

Which emoji were you using? I suspect it fails for code points outside the basic multilingual plane...
