The easiest sync here is likely from BT.org to Reddit.

Is it possible to accomplish this via IFTTT or the a Reddit bot built with PRAW (Python Reddit API Wrapper)?

I have begun working on the Reddit integration and am able to use it to post to Reddit for a given region's configured subreddit using the configured user for that region, including cross-posting to r/biketag. The way this is currently implemented we have to add the users to post on behalf of as developers to the app. This is not ideal, but it is working for now.

This feature is to be expanded and incorporated into the verify page (#92) first, for syncing data from BikeTag.Org (set in Imgur) to Reddit.

Then, we can further expand the Reddit integration to read incoming (ingest) posts to a region's configured subreddit and grok it for containing a post for the latest BikeTag and then incorporating that back into BikeTag (Imgur). [Ticket needs to be created]

Finally, using code developed in the ingesting of Reddit posts we can create the BikeTag Subreddit Importer which will import all of the BikeTag posts on a given subreddit into a new Imgur album for importing an existing game from Reddit. [Ticket needs to be created]

This feature is encompassed within the biketag-api and is a stretch goal of that project which is not yet fully implemented.

This biketag-website project is now sunsetting.
