Will try to join as well, but it depends on the time

The holiday season has been in full-force as soon as Halloween ended. If anything, it's really late.Your holiday season starts after halloween?
So the week of 12/4? I'm good for that. It would be great to see everyone.That sounds really early, tbh
Also, I'm surprised no one has opened up their stuff yet.
Well then... my package came in from my Santa today.Can you resist the urge?
GreatPerhaps the Acorn Archimedes could move from Other, into it's own section at some point?
It could be under the name Acorn 32-bit, or Acorn Archimedes.
Curious what your thoughts are
Yes I was thinking about it also. I tend to think that a platform that is currently in Other can get a category if it has a page worth of entries which is 25. The Archimedes meets the bill. It was close for a while which is why I didn't do anything before, I looked when I was adding the Hitachi and Sony games to there.
Now I see we have a slight error in the current category list, where BBC Micro is a parent category. I will make an Archimedes sub-cat in "BBC Micro" with the idea that we will rename BBC Micro to Acorn Computers later.
new sub-cat is here (will 404 until items are moved to it)

Any entries in Other that need to be moved must be renamed to remove the "Acorn Archimedes - " prefix on item names.
This section is set to type Games so no hardware can be put into there.
After about 10 days of work and over 1,400 edits later, the Skylanders category has been completely redone. All of the chase variants have been added to the database, including the extremely rare ones such as Happy Birthday Ben Starcast, clear Whirlwind, and red Camo. All employee/event variants are accounted for, as well as all of the traps, vehicles, creation crystals, and the UFO hat preorder cards. Most of the portals have also been added with their respective model numbers and platform compatibility. The only items not added were unreleased prototype figures like Heartbreaker Buckshot. There's still some work to be done as far as the item numbers and barcodes go for the figures, but so far I'm quite happy with the current progress. Unfortunately some entries had to be converted to EU-specific (no way around it), so if anyone has any Skylanders in their collection, make sure to check and see if you need to change them.
