I think everything in this thread is entirely correct. :slight_smile: Quick summary/clarification:

  1. It’s super dumb that we don’t let you have an eep day the day after a derailment (I’ll say more about that in the other thread – http://dreev.commits.to/clarify_2-red-days-in-row_bug).
  2. If we don’t fix that soon then it’s worth improving the UI and/or error messages and/or documentation to make the user understand that eep days the day after derailments are not possible currently, and, embarrassingly, cause an insta-derail if you somehow force them to happen. dreev.commits.to/either_fix_2-red-days-in-row_bug_or_improve_UI_or_docs
  3. Agreed that the poor error message alone counts as a bug even if we rationalized the underlying beehavior.
  4. Well said about the beehavioral economic reason this is important. Beeminder is all about catering to edge-skaters. :slight_smile:
  5. We’re super grateful for bug reports – keep them coming!
