Help with Public Advisor Endpoint's Arms Day Content
So, I am a little confused with the public advisor JSON content for Arms Day. It seems that the following is happening:
['Response']['data']['armsDay']['active'] is true when you can order or it's Wednesday and orders have arrived.
['Response']['data']['armsDay']['canPlaceOrder'] is ALWAYS false... is this intentional? I would think it would flip to true when you can order from Banshee....
so I am trying to use this to determin when/if you can make orders or if your orders have arrived. (not what those orders are)

So canPlaceOrder isn't really relevant in the public advisor - the reason why it's returned is a little embarassing. So on the server side, we reuse our contracts whenever we can, and we reused the private contract for the public one: but the canPlaceOrder field is non-nullable, and rather than break the contract or change its meaning (which was intended to check whether you specifically have the ability to place orders at this time) we simply have it return a default value of False. Let me give this some thought, it might be worthwhile to change its meaning for the public-facing API and make it a bit more useful as a result. Note that, if I were to make that change, all it really means is that canPlaceOrder would always be true if active is true, so I don't know if it's particularly useful.
