Inconsistent Position Definition for Serverdown Tickle and PlayLoop about blink1 HOT 2 OPEN

Hi! Thanks for the detailed report. Agreed that it does look like an error. I think this was not caught because most users color patterns are very short (2-8 lines).

Unfortunately blink(1) mk2 will not be receiving any further updates, as it's not easy to update the mk2 in the field. If you'd like to replace your mk2 with a mk3, please email us at blink1 at thingm.com and we can arrange a free (except for shipping) replacement.

I'll leave this issue open for others, in case it's an issue for them. I'll also take a look at the mk3 firmware to see if this issue exists there and perhaps issue a firmware update for it.

Thanks again!

@todbot Thank you for your prompt response! I really appreciate your attention to the detailed report I provided. I just corrected a few typos in the original report --- in some scenarios, the blink(1) mk2 was expected to crash, but it did not. There's what makes me confused.

I will ensure compatibility for this in the higher-level software to prevent inconsistencies caused by the mk2 firmware.

I'm glad to hear that you are offering a replacement for the blink(1) mk2 with a mk3. However, I would like to keep my mk2 device because both my friends and I have the same model, and we have developed our projects based on them. In addition, if it is possible, I would be interested in obtaining other models such as the mk1 and mk3 for testing purposes, and I am willing to cover the shipping expenses for these free units, and having them would greatly aid in our development and testing efforts.

Once again, thank you for your understanding and assistance!
