even when i set the time for 11, game will get announced twice, rarely, but happpens.
whats more interesting is that it shows: 2 seconds ago and then 11 seconds ago.
seems like refresh is 9 seconds not 10, anyway great work guys thanks

This is more of a question for Myst, but I do know if the game is read on the 1st second, it will post twice. I believe b.net updates every 10-11 seconds on the client.

Myst

the bot checks the game list every 10 secs.  So it picks up the game within 1 second, then it will show again at 11 secs.
1 + 10 = 11.
Feel free to lower the timefilter, but 11 is just fine.

yeah ok but it also happens with 2 and 11.

doesnt matter anyway, great program thanks

Game time isnt always perfect with specific millisecond time. If the bot catches it on 1.999 ms and replies "2"; this would be one of those exceptions.
