That test is new to me.. "copy and paste" code... where does it get pasted in order to turn it off/on?

Right here on this thread. Simply click "Select All" and paste it to a reply on this thread. Respect,

Example: Deactivate Name of Reserve: WRR This would now allow me to hunt WRR without following the ROE. I would do this here before I went on a hunt on that particular reserve.
Example: Activate Name of Reserve: WRR Now I would be activated on that particular reserve- and would be able to submit animals. ROE would have to be followed.

Are we guinea pigs again, or experimental white mice??
I'm in business and cleaning the old Colt... if the event of the summer developer fiesta doesn't spoil the plans
P. S. Brian!!!!.... Damn it, don't forget about your promises of team competition with classic rifles)))))

To help people remember to do that (and maybe help in verifying hunt histories?), would it be advisable for them to also include their hunt link(s) for the disabled hunts when they finish?
Also, they would have to activate it again here BEFORE starting an attempt; I seem to remember seeing a note when a post was edited. That would help verify it was activated pre-hunt, but I don't see that anymore(*)?

*for reference, my edited hunt submission in MiniComp #36, middle of page 5. Original post at 21:45 Tues, but edited around 00:30 Wed.

The new Option to deactivated a Reserve, is a tester to see if it will work. And how many competitors will actually use it. It was asked on the "Mini-Comp Community Team Comp" thread. So, yes, you are all guinea pigs... . I keep my promises, Fon. We will see a Classic Rifle Team Comp. I just have not decided when it will take place. Respect,

BCKidd.

Yes on both accounts. I'm curious to see how much confusion and mayhem it will cause... If a competitor deactivates a comp reserve and doesn't activate it again on this thread- there will be no one to blame but the competitor. Respect,

Oh, so you're trying to see if us guinea pigs are smart enough to activate and deactivate correctly?
[bigimg]https://i.postimg.cc/0j5WwBsf/hamster-study.gif[/bigimg]

Don't forget, you'll have to check and see that it was done correctly as well!
(Ugh, and so will the poor sucker that does up the spreadsheets on these things! )

Speaking of the Summer Fiesta - would you have any inside info when this would happen to help NOT to have them running at the same time? Or perhaps this "deactivate/activate" test is just in case they do coincide again?

[BCKidd]

I would never forget such a thing. I have no inside info when the "Summer Fiesta" will be taking place. But, if this "Deactivate" and "Activate" thing works- then in the future it could be used for such a thing. It might not work at all. We'll have to see. I recall a couple of competitors requesting to be able to Deactivate the last Main Event Team Hunt- with simply posting on the thread. This will work the same way, but is a bit more official like... Respect,

BCKidd.

[BCKidd]

So I have been thinking... I know that is a terrible thing. This "Activation" "Deactivation" thing I thought about introducing really doesn't have a place in Community Comps- unless of course it was automated. Not sure I like it or not. Anyone else have any thoughts on it? "Dumb idea?" "Good Idea?" "Let's give it a try..." any response by others is appreciated- after all we're all in this together. Respect,

BCKidd.
