MODERATORS
For modding in general, baseline is checking and handling reports made by users. In addition to that though there can be looking over posts in the instance to make sure none break the rules (sometimes theres stuff like off topic posts made that arent reported)
This community specifically in addition to the above has the solution threads that would require to be posted when the new puzzle drops while AoC runs throughout december
Daily tasks:
- checking reports once a day or something similar and dealing with them
- while AoC is running at midnight ET post a solution megathread and lock it. When the two numbers for the day at https://adventofcode.com/2023/stats get above 100 unlock it (done to prevent cheating on the global leaderboard, only the first 100 scores count there). Usually takes at most 30 mins to reach 100, was much shorter in the early days of the month
I am well suited for the timezone stuff, thats just after midday for me.
Report handling likely wont be as responsive, due to timezone, but i'll do what i can.
Happy volunteer to help out with this.
Alright ive modded you
Heres my copy paste for the days (every day I switch the day and the title at the top (if I send it before the challenge drops I just do insert name here and then edit it later). When https://adventofcode.com/2023/stats hits 100 for both nums then I unlock the thread and put an edit at the bottom saying its unlocked
(text here is slightly different since 0.19 dropped now so my warning about that is gone)
# Day 15: Lens Library
## Megathread guidelines
- Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
- You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ if you prefer sending it through a URL

Title is in the format
🎄 - 2023 DAY 15 SOLUTIONS -🎄
The title emojis ive been rotating through 7 different ones based on the day of the week, can see past days for ones ive used or you can do your own thing
You should get options in the format
When clicking on the three dots on a post (bar the local pin since thats admins only). Community pin pins it / unpins it and the lock locks / unlocks the thread to prevent people from posting in it
Will unmod myself from here after I see its going fine
(If I dont get a reply back by the stats hitting 100 for both puzzles today then ill just post the megathread to catch it for today)
Ah, yup, missed that one for todat, wasnt sure when youd mod me, ill set some alarms and make sure I get the next few days.
I nominate whoever you are
