Broadcast delay time on an announcement computer ending in odd numbers don't have a : - UrsulaMejor - 07-25-2019

Broadcast delay: 00 41

Broadcast delay: 00 29

Broadcast delay: 00 23


Broadcast delay: 00:26

why? who knows.

actually this seems to literally not be a bug

return "[minutes][seconds % 2 == 0 ? ":" : " "][seconds]"

why though?

best guess from the nerd cabal is that, back when window refresh rates were higher, this made it look like a blinking clock. now that they've been lowered to reduce lag the window skips numbers so it doesn't look like it's blinking, it looks broken instead
