I’ve just had this idea. Why don’t we create a bot that scans comments and replies to them with boardgamegeek links for every game found in the comment?
To simplify the implementation I would be favourable to introduce some sort of syntax to make unambiguous whether or not some words are a game name or not.
What do you think about this idea?
I remember u/spirescan-bot for r/slaythespire. It uses double braces, but works this way.
Here’s a random old post from the bot about new features where users are testing these: https://www.reddit.com/r/slaythespire/comments/d8t92r/new_bot_features/
The bot comments don’t link to its source, but searching the bot username on Google leads to this repository, that looks good at afirst glance. Seems to be a python bot and the source code contains the URL of the Slay The Spire Wiki: https://github.com/painebenjamin/spirescanbot
Thanks! I’ll take a look
