DQ #127: "its a special key"=>"it's a special key"

Where on this comic is this? I wasn't seeing it.

Oops! Sorry, I got the number wrong. It was #128.

CVRPG #1584: "symantical"=>"semantical"

Holidays #23 title: "thEy"=>"they"

[Destina Faroda]

This isn't a typo, but I noticed for DSWC #6, the title of the comic, "Time to Kill" isn't in the space for the comic title.

Don't ask me how I missed this the first million times I read the comic.

[Darkmoon]

Well, don't forget that I redid that comic a few months back. It used to be a long, rectangular layout.

[Gabi]

I'm back! Sorry I took so long to report back here, it took me a while to recover from the long journey back. Curse my inability to sleep while sitting.

[Gabi]

DQ #141 comment: "may screens"=>"many screens"

[Darkmoon]

I don't see that typo. Are you sure it's 141?

[Gabi]

Yes, it was 141. The comment begins with: "Admittedly, may screens in an adventure game are meant as filler for place-to-place travel."

[Gabi]

CVRPG #1606: "Do you hear my whining"=>"Do you hear me whining"

Thanksgiving #8:
"it all started with Angel"=>"It all started with Angel"
"The Richter"=>"Then Richter"

[Darkmoon]

Yes, it was 141. The comment begins with: "Admittedly, may screens in an adventure game are meant as filler for place-to-place travel."

There's the issue. My brain kept reading it as "DSWC" not "DQ". No clue why.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Awesome, thanks! I was starting to wonder.

So sorry, I wasn't here. Otherwise I might have picked up the slack.

I probably wouldn't have, but I _might_ have...

CVRPG #1610: "controll"=>"control"

Villains #253 comment: "the scenario Simons lays out"=>"the scenario Simon lays out"

[Gabi]

Villains #254 comment: "deviate for it"=>"deviate from it"

[Darkmoon]

FYI, I discovered a major error in the database. It cause the Thumbnail on the front page of the Access site to display the wrong comic number. Also made it so you couldn't browse forward in the comics past 212 or so. I'm working on the fix now.

EDIT: Fixed and working properly again.

[Gabi]

Wow, well done! What was the problem? It sounds a bit weird to be unable to browse forward after 212, and still be able to do it for previous comics:

CVRPG 1615: "talk to go"=>"talk to God"? "talk to goo"? The former would be more impressive, but the latter would be funny.

Villains #256 comment: ""e;evil enough"=>"evil enough"

[Darkmoon]

Yeah, all the villains comic commentaries will have to be looked over. the old quotes are causing the "e; issue. Sucky.

The issue related to the way the database posts the comics. It goes by date & time, and the time (right at daylight savings) skipped back an hour, causing two comics to have the same post date -- something that causes the server to hack and die.

[Gabi]

Wow. O_o Yet another reason for me to dislike daylight savings. I'm glad we don't have them here. Or rather, we have them, but they're permanent, so we don't have to change our clocks.

CVRPG #1616:
"magiced"=>"magicked"
"incredible difficult"=>"incredibly difficult"

Villains #257: "sunbloick"=>"sunblock"

[Gabi]

CVRPG #1617: "the actually headquarters"=>"the actual headquarters"

Villains #258 comment:
Another quote problem, plus...
"Blwoing"=>"Blowing"

[Gabi]

Sorry for triple-posting, but there's another quote problem in the comment for Villains #260.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

*posts just to avoid a quadruple post from Gabi*


.. not that there's a problem with that, given the nature of this particular thread...

[Darkmoon]

Yeah, this is one of those areas where it really doesn't matter.

[Gabi]

Villains #262: "unacceptible"=>"unacceptable"

Plus another quote problem in the comment.

[Gabi]

Villains #263 comment: another quote problem. Did you use this many quotes before the glitch started?

The Cornell Clone has reminded me of Fujimori.

[Darkmoon]

I don't know. I could have. I tend to quote a lot of stuff that probably doesn't need to be quoted.

[Darkmoon]

FYI, I fixed the first 50 comics (plus the intro series). They had quote issues in the commentaries. Will have to continue through teh back archive soon.

Also, sorry for the lateness of some of the Quest comics. I fell out of the habit of doing them during Thankxgivin, and haven't managed to get my groove back yet.

[Gabi]

That's OK.

Villains #264: "A rufund!"=>"A refund!" Plus another quote in the comment. >.>

[Darkmoon]

This'll teach me to wrap everything in quotes...

EDIT: Just fyi, errored quotes will probably show up sporadically through comic 421. That's when I had to rebuild the database for this particular series.
