Rules for accepting answers

• Only the asker can accept an answer (moderators can also help mark one).
• Only top-level answers can be accepted. Nested replies to other comments can't.
• You can't accept your own answer. If you found the solution yourself, share it in a comment to help other players.
• Each question has only one best answer. If a better answer comes along later, you can accept that one instead, and the original answer loses its best answer status and the reputation that came with it.
