timer and list errors

[Nada_Surf]

I'm running a trivia bot and during the running of the thing, after a random amount of time... usually a few days, this error occurs. Now what is a timer error? I am using timers but this doesnt make sense to me and unmatched open quote in list??

any help would be appreciated

Which Trivia Script Are You Using?

[Nada_Surf]

if I grep timer.. then I get all the timers that I have declared.. eg nextgametimer, hinttimer.. etc... not the number one...


I'm using my own trivia script made from scratch.

then you've written it poorly. you're either using list functions on strings, or (more likely in this instance) passing text to timers incorrectly. you'll have to paste the relevant code for us to help further.

Nada - the timer87987 is not the name of the procedure. That's just the timer id. The actual procedure that was running isn't listed there. You should add debugging information to your script (putlog) so that you can tell exactly what is running when the error occurs, and where in the proc it occurs (try putlog "got to 1", putlog "got to 2", etc).
