| We are currently looking for 2-3 people who would like to help us run MAL's official event Fantasy Anime League. The Fantasy Anime League (FAL) is similar to Fantasy Sports but with an anime twist. Players form their own team by selecting anime from the upcoming season. These teams then compete by getting weekly points according to certain criteria. For players that wish to be more active, FAL also offers some strategic elements. For more information check out the FAL Club and the introduction. We're looking for people with solid programming knowledge in Python. You should also be able to be on IRC to communicate with the rest of the FAL staff. Your tasks as part of the FAL staff: - Modifying our scripts (e.g. fixing bugs) - Implementing new features when the rules change - Running the scripts after the week's deadline at 18:00/19:00 UTC (every 2-3 weeks) - Discussing changes and other FAL related things If you're interested please send me a PM on MAL or on IRC (#myanimelist@rizon.net). If you have any questions or concerns (for example, you can program but you can't make it for the deadline) but would still like to help, please message me and we can discuss it. I look forward to hearing from you :) |

| Good luck with that. I've habit of running away when I'm obviously got low score. Aiming for top sure is hard. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| I wish I can help, but my Python knowledge isn't that solid yet. |
   |
| This sounds like the Anime Characters Rank Wars (I really miss that club) but this whole Python thing is a huge turn-off. |

| When's this starting? |

| Sorry, but my knowledge in Phyton isn't enough for a job like this. |

Reverie_is_mE said: StormSky92 said: A computer programming language. Do you know the difference between Python and Java? I'm only familiar with the latter. The syntax is really different, for starters. But in general, Python is a higher level programming language, and is a lot easier to use - it requires you to type a whole lot less to get essentially the same result as you would using Java. |

| if you run you get faster to your location have a nice day - FALL3RE |
| Sorry, I have enough deadlines as is, and I can't modify scripts. |
I am the scales of justice, conductor of the choir of death! |
| couldn't we try and solicit help across different parts of the internet, such as Reddit too? or other anime sites? (e.x: Crunchyroll, anime nation, anime forums, animesuki) Maybe we could find more people for the future as well since, since like most people, I don't know how to program either. |
| I might be able to help but only after 2-3 months. Will be travelling a lot the next few weeks. |
| Sir John Falstaff needed :) Sorry for making a lame pun. I have some knowledge of python but not sure that I'm reliable :'( |

Unfortunately debugging and maintenance are hard jobs to fill in the IT industry due to the perception that they are not "glamourous" jobs. That being said, they are essential as maintenance is often more labour intensive than making a product. The main reason why debugging is difficult is often down to poor documentation by those who implemented to original program. If you have good documentation (and inline scripting comments) it can make the job easier for the maintenance programmer. |
| Would, but I only know C++. |

| I'm studying computer science but Python is not one of my best and most used languages. I can still work with it most of the time though. If no one wants to do it, feel free to contact me and I will take a look what I can do. |

| Sent you a message via IRC Luna. |
