event_results: TypeError: initial_value must be str or None, not bytes

[LaundroMat]

After logging in, I try to get event results with

irw.event_results(16206499)

This is the error I get:

Same issue here, I'm going to test your commit and I will let you know

If you comment out line 463, i.e. .encode('utf8') then it works as expected. This patch should be merged in.

Actually, prefer the approach r.decode('utf8') when passing to StringIO
