gvcs Extension

Automatic solver of newspaper crosswords in Godville web game.

It seems that we have to write the following extra comprehensive text so everyone could understand what this extension does. So, the details:

This is an utility extension that allows any user in Godville game to get correct Answers for a daily Crossword that is published in a Newspaper inside a web Game every day. Please see and understand how this works exactly:

1. You open a Newspaper page in Godville game and locate a Crossword in it;
2. Right under the Crossword there would appear a new Button with a \"gvcs\" label on it (and a helpful tooltip title);
3. If you are not exactly sure about how to fill the Crossword yourselves, then you may press the Button to see the correct Anwers;
4. Only when you actually press the Button, the extension grabs the information about current Crossword (including Questions and already known Letters) from the Newspaper page and Uploads it to our Database Server, and also Redirects you to Our Generated Page;
5. Once there, our Scripts process the Information you have just Uploaded, and using the Questions, known Letters and the Knowledge of Lengths of the Answer words tries to actually Find in Our Database which Words could fit and, therefore, be the Correct Answers to Uploaded Crossword;
6. When all Answers are found in Our Database, you are presented a new Crossword on the Generated Page which looks almost the same as the Crossword in a Godville Newspaper but now it has all the Cells filled with Correct Letters so you could see the Correct Answers; also the Correct Answers will be duplicated right Below the Crossword for convenience;
7. Sometimes it may happen so there are multiple Words in Our Database that fits well into the Crossword that you have Uploaded, in this case all Possible Words will be written below the Crossword separated by Commas;
8. In a rare occasion, it may also happen so there are none Words in Our Database fit into one or more Question Cells, and in this case the corresponding Cells would be left Empty like they were in the Crossword in a Godville Newspaper; unfortunately you won't be able to found a Solution to such Questions by using Our Service, and we would be Very Sorry!

We hope that this fully explains exactly what and how this extension does, so that no one can have any doubts left!

Please note that the Crossword is only visible to Registered users of the Game, because if you don't have an Account in the Game you obviously won't be able to get the Reward for solving the Crossword.
