When *faced* with a problem...

This will not show your personal calendar, but it will show an overall calendar of the click faces.
Hover over a face to see an image and title bar of what was sold that day. Click the face to go there.
Mehrathons are shown with a red background, and only use a single clickface (sorry).
Updated automatically the day after the sale.

May not be in it’s final form (I might add filtering etc), this was a quick thing thrown together.

Nicely done!
@dave Not quite as relevant now as it was 10 minutes ago, but thanks!
@dave @lichme Thanks guys!
Lich, as always your solution is both elegant and historically relevant.
Dave, you have resurrected hope with response to community demands (Maybe we’ve all become a little too possessive over what is in reality y’all’s company, but in a way, it’s nice that everyone feels a bit of pride in ownership.)
@mediocrebot AWESOME!
OWLS! TOWELS! JOWLS! AWESOME!
OMG TY!
Yes it is as relevant, for those of us who want to see the older faces.

(Not my streak)
BTW, this page gets to be “pinned” in my browser.
Nice. I want royalties for the idea.
@medz
Nah. I had it first. I just forgot to speak up.
/giphy me first
@medz
Too bad, I don’t have access to the above bolded info, so it doesn’t count.
That is awesome. I’ll have to bookmark that page for future reference.
WORKER BEES! HERCULES! TURKEY GREASE! AWESOME!
Nice job for a throw-together @lichme. Thank you!
This is a fucking masterpiece!! I love being able to go back to the beginning and see the oldest faces. Well done!!
@llangley I don’t remember that clicky face. What was the sale item that day?
@ruouttaurmind no, sorry, just my attempt at a “masterpiece” gif
Truly phenomehnal. Nice touch with the extra link in the menu bar.
Thanks @lichme!

Your calendar located at https://mehstalker.com/facecalendar.php seems to have stopped working on September 19, 2020.
@cengland0
@cengland0 It’s working for me. @lichme must not lich you.
@lichme @OldCatLady He must have fixed it after I told him about it. It hasn’t worked in months but is now working. But I see that today’s face for 2/16/2021 is not there. Maybe it will update after midnight.
@cengland0 If you’re not logged in to meh, the click face doesn’t show until the next day - since (since last time I looked) the face isn’t part of the API, it has to be scraped the day after
@lichme I understand what you mean now. It took me a while to understand why it makes a difference if you’re logged in or not. I suppose your process does everything without having to be logged in so you see the “meh” button and not the face.
But I was looking through their HTML code, and they do have a class called “back” that contains the image even if you’re not signed in.
The div containing the class=“back” can be found like this if you want to scrape the HTML code:
<html>
<body>
<div class=“page-wrap”>
<article>
<div class=“meh-row”>
<div class=“meh-left meh-column”>
<section class=“item-hero”>
<div id=“hero-buttons”>
<div class=“meh-button flip-container”>
<div class=“flipper”>
<div class=“back”>
<img src=“Your face image here”>
Or, you can probably just find it with javascript:
document.getElementsByClassName(“back”)[0].children[0].src
I’m not that familiar with their API and what limitations they have but I know for a fact that the image is available even before you sign in.
As an FYI, they have a cool transition that goes from the front to back with a flip function that shows the face. I think that HTML/CSS feature was intended for things like playing cards but it works perfectly for the face too and can be flipped without refreshing the entire page.
