 As Josh has overwritten months of everyone's playing, ruining both games, I've cleared them and reset. But not first without a few security measures

One of those measures is that I've...I don't know what the official terminology is, but I've got a filter for all mysql queries. It's a nice filter - it helps out a lot, and I can use it to filter and block bad queries. It also spits out an error message when a mysql error occurs, and if you're an admin (me!) it spits out the query as well - very helpful for debugging.

The other thing it does, perhaps the most important, is that it only allows one query per call. Before, you could piggyback two queries into one call, and that's how I think Josh got in, by finding a spot which I hadn't protected (but I don't know where that is). Hopefully, this will make things more safe.

  :D Retto Rules!
The man
Of virtuous soul commands not, nor obeys:
Power, like a desolating pestilence,
Pollutes whate'er it touches, and obedience,
Bane of all genius, virtue, freedom, truth,
Makes slaves of men, and, of the human frame,
A mechanised automaton.

Percy Bysshe Shelley

One of my classmates remarked that I "emanate evil"
MY science teahcer thinks i'm a muslim extremist
The mormons came to my house and I told them I worship satan
My neighbour think that I perform evil rituals on my porch when i burn candles
maybe I should run for president......
