No idea if possible... Point system based on type #252326 03/04/15 02:59 PM

But what I'd like to do, is to have a script (not for twitch!) that assigns 1pt per typed character of a post to a $nick. So if I have someone posting a large amount, they'll get points for their posts. The more active someone is, the more points they get. Is this possible? And can someone point me in the right direction? Thank you!

You can make different variables for each network and/or channel with the use of dynamic variables. for dynamic variables try /help [ ] I think these are what you gonna need. If anyone has to suggest more helpfull staff it would be great!!

Here's a little pseudocode you can try to follow When someone types anything Check length of what they wrote Add length to their section in ini file Nillens @ irc.twitch.tv Nillen @ irc.rizon.net

People spamming random jibberish at 500 characters per line. Well. At least I won lunch. Good philosophy, see good in bad, I like!
