Docker Minecraft Server

This is an Ansible Playbook to monitor a git repo for players to add (or remove) and then restart the relevant docker containers using docker-compose. I use this to manage the players on a minecraft server I run.

In this repo, you'll find the actual ansible playbook (playbook.yml), the crontab-able run_playbook.sh (which silences unchanged plays) and the template I'm using (templates=docker-compose.yml). There is also an example vars file (host_vars=localhost=vars.yml) to show the basics of what this file would look like. Note that directory structures in gists are not permitted, so I've replaced / with = in each filename.

This code is largely derived from sources found online. As such, I didn't think it was unreasonable to compile it into a series of extracts to use in your own projects.

In here we have code to perform an off-line sync with sharepoint lists, to perform an HTTP request, to check whether tables exist, and drop them if they do, and to produce Base64 encoded SHA1 signed AES ecrypted (with multiple rounds) text.

Function names:

• ResyncWithSharepoint(URL)
• SyncTable(TableName) (Note this depends on the tables having a Sharepoint Link already established with the prefix sp)
• HttpOK(URL)
• Sleep(microseconds)
• ifTableExists(tableName, DatabaseFileName)

Scotland Yard
A compelling detective game

For 3 to 6 Players

The Scene

Mr. X, a most-wanted criminal is on the run in Central London and Scotland Yard's finest detectives are in hot persuit. To escape capture, Mr. X must move cleverly and secretly (Mr. X's whereabouts are revealed only as many as 5 times during the game); to corner Mr. X, the detectives must use ingenuity and cooperation.

One player is Mr. X. All other players are the detectives. Whether one is being chased or doing the chasing, all players travel from location to location by bus, taxi or underground. To take a certain form of transportation, you must be on the correct boarding spot and have the correct fare - no ticket, no ride!
