This seems like maybe the exact reason FOR an API rate limit?

Rather than polling the API, you could use webhooks to avoid hitting the rate limit: https://developer.github.com/webhooks/

Someone submitted a pull request, #6, that reduced the polling interval but wasn't described as doing so, and it was voted in. Interesting.

Is it fixed now? You posted 35 minutes ago but the last bot message is from 10 minutes ago.

No, I'm actually just manually counting votes and accepting/rejecting the PRs. I have become the bot until the limit resets :/

Wow, it got to "enslaving humanity" far faster than I would have guessed!

I for one welcome our new overlord bot
