Title: Zalanthan Dawn Blackberry App
Post by: Synthesis on November 16, 2009, 10:17:40 PM
One of you code-monkeys out there should do us up a Blackberry and/or iPhone app that alerts us when the Zalanthan dawn is about to occur.

So those of us with tight schedules IC and IRL know when to maximize our time-wasting efficiency.

The armageddon.org main page shows the current game time. Is there an interface to call the server to gather this info?

Just use a widget to transpose the portion of the Arm webpage which states the in-game time to your screen. I know it works on Macs, not sure if there's a Windows version out there.

You could just hit the page and regex it out. I would, but I'm lazy.
