Ratmas Day 10: Admin Bonanza - Reaping Adjustments!

as requested in Slack, here's a demo of the member based reaping:

Say this is a subset of our reaping list, with imaginary members and their characters:

reaping list:
aardvark - 1m bob smith, 1f jane doe
burro - 1m jim jimmerson
capybara - 2f knife sword, 12m coal seam
dragon - 3m blaise pascal
eosinophile - 2f neat lady, 12m peter melarch


---

1. A list of the members who entered at least 1 character into the reaping is created.


members = ["aardvark", "burro", "capybara", "dragon", "eosinophile"]


---

2. The order of this list is shuffled.


members:
1. "capybara"
2. "aardvark"
3. "eosinophile"
4. "burro"
5. "dragon"


---

3. Starting with the first member in the list, for each member step through the reaping procedure:

Capybara:

i. A list of the member's characters who were entered in the reaping is created, with each character's odds weighted based on age and tessera.

capybara_chars = ["2f knife sword", "2f knife sword", "2f knife sword", "12m coal seam"]

ii. One tribute is selected out of this list.

(2f knife sword)

iii. If the tribute's slot is still open in the main reaping list, the selected tribute is added to the reaping.


Reaping list:
1m
1f
2m
2f knife sword [capybara]
3m
...
12m


---

Moving onto the next member, Aardvark:

i. aardvark_chars = ["1m bob smith", "1m bob smith", "1f jane doe", "1f jane doe", "1f jane doe"]

ii. (1m bob smith)

iii.


Reaping list:
1m bob smith [aardvark]
1f
2m
2f knife sword [capybara]
3m
...
12m


---

and again for Eosinophile:

i. eosinophile_chars = ["2f neat lady", "2f neat lady", "12m peter melarch"]

ii. (2f neat lady)

iii. Since 2f is already taken by Knife Sword [Capybara], skip this step

iv. Otherwise, another one of the member's characters are drawn from this list until one with an open spot remains.

(12m peter melarch)


Reaping list:
1m bob smith [aardvark]
1f
2m
2f knife sword [capybara]
3m
...
12m peter melarch [eosinophile]


---

onto Burro:

i. burro_chars = ["1m jim jimmerson"]

ii. (1m jim jimmerson)

iii. 1m is already filled by Bob Smith [Aardvark]

v. If there are no open slots in the main reaping list that can be filled by any of the member's characters, the member is skipped.

(Sorry, Burro!)

---

and finally Dragon:

i. dragon_chars = ["3m blaise pascal"]

ii. (3m blaise pascal)

iii.


Reaping list:
1m bob smith [aardvark]
1f
2m
2f knife sword [capybara]
3m blaise pascal [dragon]
...
12m peter melarch [eosinophile]
