points.log format

The points log is a space-separated file. Each line has four fields:

Example

1602716345 init - - - - 0
1602716349 load 2255 player5 sequence 1
1602716450 load 4824 player3 sequence 1
1602716359 correct 2255 player5 sequence 1
1602716423 wrong 4824 player3 sequence 1
1602716428 correct 4824 player3 sequence 1
1602716530 correct 4824 player3 sequence 1
1602716546 abduction 4824 player3 - 0 alien FM1490

The final entry is a made-up "alien abduction" entry, since at the time of writing, we didn't have any actual events that wrote extra fields.
