🥳Surprise!🥳
@SwaSyx decided the creative task in the contest was a very cool idea and he'd like to reward the best quest text separately from the rest of the contest — like a contest in the contest.
So we'll post all texts here and will give the possibility to vote for the best text. The winner of the quest text poll will also be rewarded with 15💎.
Less than 24h left for the contest: /channel/GeckoTours/1210
If you need help with any question, feel free to ask! I enjoy helping people 😊
You can win 15 Diamonds!
🎉Time to celebrate! 🎉

Yooo!!! Arena tracking is on 👍
If you did /auth my bot and did arena fights recently or in the future, you can PM @Geckos_Bot with the command /du to show your arena results. It's still work in progress. Next step: daily overviews of guild participation in arena. But first the /du output needs to be perfect🤩
Please give feedback! Especially if something doesn't work!

Aleph wrote a really short guide about the new functions of my bot in his channel (/channel/alephx_ideas/933 and following messages).
I really like how he got to the point directly. Maybe reading that helps others, too?

👤: [EDH]🍀🐲📦⁵⁰⚒³³Mahalo_Slash: You can explain the process to programmed this beautiful and useful bot???
🅰️ : Actually it all started because I wanted to have a bot to ping my guild members before battle if a roster overview is sent to guild chat. I started out extremely simple, with hardcoded information about my guild members etc. But then I got other ideas what the bot could do, like tracking 🔥XP if users send their /me or adding the feature to set triggers in chats (allowed for every telegram user, not only admins etc). Somehow some other guilds asked if they could use the bot, too and I had to improve it all. Added a proper database system for all the information and personal user settings. I think I got pretty far already without having API access, but at a really late stage I figured that out😍. This opened new possibilities, like inventory management or automatic profile updates. And that's basically where I am now. I realize I need a certain tool for my own guild/my own guild's management, so I add it 😁. There is no real "plan" how to continue, it just happens somehow.
👤: Father: 1 thing you are really proud of but rarely get the excuse to talk/boast abt it. (sumthing real plz, not CW related) 🤔
🅰️ : This is a really personal thing for me now. But a few years ago I was really at a super low point in my life. Due to illness I was not able to complete my studies at the university (physics) and really lost my goal in overall life. I was lost and I felt like shit. But I got up, did not crawl further, started a therapy with an amazing therapist and slowly it all got better. I found a new place to live, I wrote applications for apprenticeships in informatics.... got accepted at a hospital to do this apprenticeship. And now I'm actually working there, I go to school for it and I feel like I figured it all out. And to be honest: yes, I'm really proud how far I got and how nice my life is at the moment It was a ton of work to get there with many throwbacks, but I did not give up. So here I am 👌
There is a general problem with the API right now — I can't get duels info from there. So all the new commands won't work properly. Sorry about that! I'll post again when it works again!
Best wishes, Vik

Forgot your arena fights again? Not anymore! Simply activate the API access with /auth command and have a telegram user name so you can get pinged.
Your guild leader/squire/bartender/treasurer has the possibility to remind you if arena is not done yet. Those players with guild ranks can use the command /dug_ping in any chat and it will ping all guild members who did not finish their 5 arena fights.
######################################
📯📯📯RRrrrriinnggg📯📯📯
¿Olvidaste otra vez tus combates en la arena? Ya no. Solo tienes que activar el acceso a la API con el comando /auth y tener un nombre de usuario de telegram para poder recibir ping.
El líder de tu gremio/cuidador/camarero/tesorero tiene la posibilidad de recordarte si la arena aún no ha terminado. Aquellos jugadores con rangos de gremio pueden usar el comando /dug_ping en cualquier chat y hará un ping a todos los miembros del gremio que no hayan terminado sus 5 combates de arena.
⚠️A very detailed manual for @Geckos_Bot was written by @ADS_BlackBear in his channel: Check out /channel/ungmasumanera/2536 and all the following messages and instructions. Maybe it helps some users here to find and use tools that I did not include in the menu yet and which were a bit "hidden" and unknown. It's in Spanish though.

Arena overview for [CBS]
5/0 Pit_Uffo (Lvl: 67)
3/2 Cassandra (Lvl: 26)
2/1 Malfurion (Lvl: 72)
2/2 Love Marcos (Lvl: 44)
2/3 Mano (Lvl: 32)
2/3 Hyroe (Lvl: 33)
⚠️If you did your arena fights and the bot still doesn't show it with the /du command, check if you already authenticated the API access. Simply send /auth to the bot and then forward the message from the game bot.
I'll work on sending replies that the access is missing instead of showing "no results". Sorry about the confusion!
PS: I also only started tracking arena fights a few hours ago. The arena data for today is not complete. It might show "no arena fights", if you finished them all before I started tracking.
I'm looking for players who did /auth my bot and who did arena fights during the last 2hours. Please help me test some arena tracking ❤️

The questions are the same and we will treat them the same way and will add all participants with 100% correct answers to one pool from which the three winners will be chosen randomly.

👤: 🌑 Maki | [SVX] Makishi...: Can you tell me what Stairway to heaven means? (In your opinion ofc). Very polemic lyrics.
🅰️ : Hm. very strange lyrics there. I think it is a criticism of the materialistic thought/wish to buy everything, including happiness and an entry to heaven? I'm really not sure tbh. There are probably many things I'm missing here.
👤: Eugene: What's your Top 3 places in Germany to visit as a tourist. 2 week vacation.
🅰️ : Wow, interesting question, because I never considered Germany as a place for a vacation. I think you should visit Berlin for a while, because there is a lot of culture and history to see there. You could check out the television tower with a great view over the city, but also the government quarter or the holocaust memorial.
I was living in Heidelberg for a few years and I think the huge amount of tourists there are right to check out the city. It is really beautiful. There is an old castle to visit for example.
And third place: probably Munich and October fest? I guess that is something you have to experience yourself at one point :)
👤: Genius Stupid: Givn ur luv 4 nmbrs cpled wid gud base of gecko, wat analytics wud u lyk 2 carry out 2 knw more abt game mechanics?
🅰️ : I translate the question first: "Given your love for numbers coupled with a good base of data in GeckoBot: what analytics would you like to carry out to know more about the game mechanics?"
Hm. I really don't want to create "spy tools", but an interesting thing, given enough people allow me checking out their profiles via API, would be to compare average stats of mem players vs average stats of mono class players. Would be interesting to see how big the stat bonus really is - on average of course.
