News / Fix for Searching for Ys series of Games

« on: February 12, 2023, 08:16:20 pm »

Hi all,

You should now be able to search for "Ys" in the main search as well as the advanced search. I know this is a small fix, but can be bothersome if you're a fan of the series. Our search had limitations based on the length of the search term.

Do we have any other 2 characters series / games that pose a similar issue?

News / Website Outage January 18/19 2023

« on: January 19, 2023, 10:23:10 pm »

We are very sorry for the outage between the 18th and 19th.

We had scheduled maintenance from our hosting provider as well as they had scheduled maintenance on their side. The main issue occurred when our server rebooted. It was trying to mount a phantom external drive that we had previously deleted. We hadn't anticipated this. We eventually were able to log back in into the safe mode and mount the main drive. Then we removed the phantom drive from the fstab that was hanging everything up and rebooted. Shout out to Michael, Matt, Trip and everyone else for alerting us to the initial outage. Thanks as well to a few including Mike for some additional help restoring things properly (and all the others that offered help too - Michael, Matt, and Soera included)!

Thanks to everyone for their continued support and patience!

News / Happy Thanksgiving and Status Update!

« on: November 25, 2021, 11:27:21 pm »

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you are all doing well during these times. Thanks for being here and having us keep track of your collection!

I'm slowly working my way through some of the features previously requested. I added the random item link that pull out a random item from our database. I've also finally gotten around to adding the ability to update your collection games from the item's page on the your stuff tab. I've updated the right sidebar to show the latest games added to peoples' wishlists to make the feature more viable. I'm hoping to keep up the momentum and work though some more changes here in the near future.

Take good care and be safe! Thanks again for being here over the years!
