Tay Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Spending most of today and tomorrow on the site! I'll be posting updates here as I go -- that way you can sit back and watch the trail of destruction which inevitably follows. Contacting Me today: If you need to get a hold of me, Skype is probably the most sure-fire way today: ArchmageTay My PM inbox is a black hole at the moment. Not recommended until tomorrow when I finish going through it. Email is fine: [email protected] or [email protected] I'll get on the forums chat apps from time to time If needed I don't mind re-downloading TeamSpeak First order of business: I'm working on re-adding the Reviews Hub features and sources we lost in the rollback Suzu Fanatic 1 Quote

Funyarinpa Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 9/4 WAS AN INSIDE JOB solidbatman, AaronIsCrunchy and Tay 3 Quote
Tay Posted September 4, 2015 Author Posted September 4, 2015 Update: Got the Reviews Hub code fixed. YAAAAAAY. I got Otaku Aniverse back up as well, but the other sources we lost in the rollback(s) will need to be re-negotiated since we were using some fancy RSS stuff. Guys, I think I saw an asteroid that was headed our way < 3 EDIT: 9/4 WAS AN INSIDE JOB I laughed so hard. Quote
Zakamutt Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Will you look at Skype as well? I feel too lazy to re-type short messages, but if I have to... (importance level 2/5) Quote
Tay Posted September 4, 2015 Author Posted September 4, 2015 Update (~2:05PM): Ran into a small snag -- having trouble connecting into the site (back-end, not front-facing site). Going to put the forums software to-do items aside (listed below) until I can get some guidance from Nay. Forums "stuff" on hold: Software updates Dedicated "Donation" app which will make forums goodies/management automatic Some blogs stuff to test Will you look at Skype as well? I feel too lazy to re-type short messages, but if I have to... (importance level 2/5) Got it. Quote
Tay Posted September 4, 2015 Author Posted September 4, 2015 Update (4:16PM): Got Twitter auto-posting working for both the blog and Reviews Hub Finished tweaking Reviews Hub code Updated a billion plugins Did my research about IPB 4 Lots of discussion with the blog team Got email lists set up for the blog team, and did the technical-side for the reviews team's email list Darklord Rooke, SilverLi, Flutterz and 1 other 4 Quote
Tay Posted September 5, 2015 Author Posted September 5, 2015 Update (9:49 PM): VNTS is written! Wrote up my take of the review hub overhaul action program and where I see the rate-limiting blocks Good discussions with Blog and Reviews team folks Got the reviews email net set up Listed to a crap ton of Pat Metheny and really enjoyed it At one point I listed to the Beatles. I think. Forgot to eat dinner. Going to go do that next before doing some Reviews Hub work Quote

Tay Posted September 5, 2015 Author Posted September 5, 2015 You think you listened to the Beatles? I was flirting with Batman. I got distracted. solidbatman 1 Quote
Tay Posted September 5, 2015 Author Posted September 5, 2015 Update (1:09 AM): Fixed a typo in the Reviews Hub code which caused mass chaos (it made links to original sources look wrong) Overhauled the Reviews Hub "Find a Review" page Decided Rooke is, indeed, the devil and I must stand strong against his fiery darts (read: I'm going to stick with tags = game titles on the Reviews Hub, but change the way the software searches and displays tags) Came up with two blog-based options for the articles site project which I'll need to share with maef Still having trouble connecting to the site which is limiting my ability to work on stuff like ^. Someday Nayleen will come and rescue me... One idea for the articles project was to use forum software and custom CSS, but unfortunately the pages/content plugin seems to be broken. I think I'll need to uninstall/reinstall it with the update Did a little more research into IPB 4 and dreamed of one day prancing in its fields Fixed some errors in VNTS Bugged Zaka Talked to Decay, had him look over VNTS Gave one of my cats a lot of chin-scratches because it was either that or have my keyboard become his bed Slowing down a bit, as it's getting late. And by late I mean middle of the night. These posts are meant to help increase transparency as I'm working on this crap. Hope they've been helpful to someone! Darklord Rooke 1 Quote

AaronIsCrunchy Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Gave one of my cats a lot of chin-scratches because it was either that or have my keyboard become his bed As a fellow cat owner this is only a temporary measure. Your keyboard still becomes his bed and there's nowt you can do about it :3 Tay 1 Quote
