Eric WagonerandClaude Fable 5.1 c6366853cd The root address is rewritten to index.html, since try_files passes the root over as a directory and served the shell in place of the hall

Eric WagonerandClaude Fable 5.1 647e8cb2bf The hall's game cards no longer lift on hover or end in "Play X →" and a domain line, and the first game, the one newcomers are pointed at, takes the whole width with its art beside the words, so five games fill the grid without an orphan; the template renders the hall, the rules and the guide at build time behind a fallback named shell.html, and its deploy renders the Caddy site file from the template each time; the family list carries Wyrm and Dip's larger maps; the tally heading and the hosting line are said plainly; and the writing checklist names one sentence shape for a whole list as a tell

Eric WagonerandClaude Opus 5.5 09a8b675ad The host has a hand on the other seats: once the game begins, Seats makes a transfer phrase for another person's seat, which gives it a new token when claimed, and gives the seat of a player who cannot go on to a bot, which plays the move the seat owes at once and speaks nothing in their name; the person's token opens nothing while it stands in, their page goes to the gallery with the reason and a claim box, and a rematch holds their seat without the stand-in; the server pings every socket and closes one a dead browser left open

Eric WagonerandClaude Fable 5.1 60435fef84 The hall keeps the night on the shared host: one job runs every game's rollup and backup and checks in with Sentry once for each 
Eight cron monitors, two per game, watched eight scripts that run on the
same box at the same two minutes. hall-nightly.sh now runs the hall's own
rollup and every game's rollup at 00:12, and every game's backup at 07:23,
finding the games by their scripts in /usr/local/bin, and checks in once
for each job to the gamehall project's hall-rollup and hall-backup
monitors. The template's rollup and backup say by their exit status
whether they managed, the skipped backup included, and its deploy leaves
the game's own cron file off a host the hall schedules.

Eric WagonerandClaude Fable 5.1 87c2215e5f The hall's cards say who plays on one line and where the game came from on a quieter one, with a word for newcomers under the intro 
Each card's players and origin are two lines, the origin a step
smaller. Dip's description is shorter and its players line says "2 to
10, depending on the map". The intro says "start a table" like the list
beneath it, and a line under it points newcomers at Wiz-War. The Waving
Hands picture is re-cropped from the same capture, the grid centered
and the stray edge gone.

The lobby's four-turn grid, captured from the game with each letter
replaced by the game's own hand silhouette, mirrored for the right hand
as the picker draws it. The game itself still writes the grid in letters.

Eric WagonerandClaude Fable 5.1 c162625d51 The hall's cards name each game's house player and lead with "Play Dip →", Waving Hands shows its gesture grid, and the small text reads at 4.5:1 
The intro says how to start before the cards. Each card's metadata line
names the house player, the call to action is "Play [Game] →" with the
game's address beneath, and an empty length line waits, hidden, for real
play data. Waving Hands' card shows the lobby's gesture grid instead of
the share card. "How a table works" says Start a table and how a seat
crosses devices, and the credits run in the cards' order. The faint bone
is gone: the metadata lines and the footer use the dimmed bone, 6.5:1
and 7.2:1 where they were 3.7:1 and 4.0:1, and the ko-fi link no longer
wraps.

Eric WagonerandClaude Opus 5.5 0456ac39f1 Dip's new tagline in the family, and the writing rules learned from the Dip and Wiz-War passes 
A deliberate tagline triplet may stay (Wiz-War's), a button may name its
action and its cost, a game may voice a template line its own way, and
the list of load-bearing words grows: client-matched errors, replay
goldens, stored shares, and bot lines told apart by shape. Bots should
not share scaffolding.

Eric WagonerandClaude Opus 5.5 bbbe8ec312 Writing for players: the editing passes' lessons, and the template written by them 
The conventions gain a list of the habits players read as generated text
(a semicolon in every paragraph, statement-colon-explanation, "The" plus
an abstract noun as a heading, clipped fragments in threes, closing
aphorisms, "X, not Y", the page talking about itself), and of the errors
that come from inherited text: hidden information where there is none,
points where there are none, "both" at a larger table, unchecked claims,
and ledger-stored words reworded. new-game.sh points at the list.

The template follows it: the about link loses 'a labor of love', the
tabs are Origins and Games so far, and the hall, lobby, room, report
slip, table talk, guide and demo board read as Waving Hands' and
Hnefatafl's now do. The landing page and family.json carry the two
games' new taglines and lose their semicolons and the tip jar's aphorism.

Eric WagonerandClaude Opus 5.5 169ec4ad55 Conventions: plain chrome, and how a move is made 
From feedback on Waving Hands' BoardGameGeek thread: no label-and-colon
lines or abstract headings around the game; histories read oldest
first; the move and its button stay together and in view; warn before
a wasted move rather than after; let a move be typed.

Eric WagonerandClaude Opus 5.5 f0d7237c2b The rollup and the backup check in once, when they end, with the run's duration 
A start and a finish sent seconds apart can reach Sentry in either order,
and a start that lands second is never closed, so a fast rollup was
reported as a timeout on nights it succeeded. Hnefatafl's monitor did so
nine nights in fifteen. One check-in at the end cannot race; a run that
hangs sends nothing and is marked missed.
