word count trophy testing

[Wormopolis]

ellipses... they screwed me

[Wormopolis]

yeah but its being changed by me in the background. it currently sees 49 as 50

Let's see..you're targeting the cells...is it possible that it's picking up the html tags?

But why would it only pick one? And then if it is which one?

[Wormopolis]

no I stripped those out. it was picking up an extra space at the end because it converted break tags to spaces. so I just wrote in something to strip beginning and end spaces.

now to consider making the hyphen not count...

And any of the other odd symbols:

= + - ( ) * ! @ # $ % ^ & ~
= + - ( ) * ! @ # $ % ^ & ~
= + - ( ) * ! @ # $ % ^ & ~
> < / ? { } | \ " " ' ;

[Wormopolis]

count numbers as words?

[NetMaster]

I would say yes, just since most people use them in place of their word form. One = 1

[Wormopolis]

currently all the posts on page 1 are accurate...

but Im wondering if putting something in there to round up to the nearest 10 or something...

[Wormopolis]

like 49 words rounds to 50... or 199 words rounds to 200. basing it off the calculated number itself. so like 199 would round to 200, but 9 wouldnt round to 10.

[NetMaster]

Maybe as a true/false option to turn it on?

That way people who want to be accurate can be exact and those who are more lenient can grade on a curve.
