Hi all

I have the following set ...

Code:

set acrosbynum([expr [array size acrosbynum]+1]) $text
set acrosbyname([strlwr $nick]) $text
set acrorealnames([strlwr $nick]) $nick
set acronumsbyname([strlwr $nick]) [array size acrosbynum]
set acronamesbynum([array size acrosbynum]) [strlwr $nick]

Now ... the problem is when this displays to the channel later on ... each user that submitted first - will always be displayed first ... i wish to change this.

Code:

while {$_i<=[array size acrosbynum]} {
putmsg $acrochan "$_i. [strlwr $acrosbynum($_i)]"
set acrovotes($_i) 0
incr _i
}

I am able to change randomise the acrosbynum etc induviualy, but it will put everything out of sync.

Does anyone have a suggestion for this ... i know its way beyond my current scope of knowledge Sad
