This is a really cool idea. The crux of the article: ---- The code for bucket has a lot of logic that goes like this:: if ($msg =~ GREATBIGHOARYREGEX) { ... else if ($msg =~ ANOTHERCRAZYREGEX) { ... And so I though

I work at Google (blinks AT). Our search results are no different, but we have a corporate membership with ACM's Digital Library which is insanely useful. I'm sure most other major tech companies have the same deal.

A better game for that group would be Fluxx ( http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/258 ) -> lots of fun, interesting decisions, but a massive element of luck. In Fluxx, if you know what you're doing and get lucky, you can win extreme

They just redesigned the backend; hopefully this'll make changes like that easier. Personally, every so often I want to make my own version, but the user data on BGG is so useful, I think it might keep others out of the market.

Board games depend a lot on taste. Are you more into eurogames (great mechanics, generally light on theme) or "ameritrash" (great theme, generally complex mechanics)? Do you want a heavyweight, longer game, or a lighter-weight, short game

They've stated publicly that they have a business plan, just not what it is. Speculation abounds (as I'm sure you know), and many potential plans that have been dropped online could work pretty well.

Thanks for the link -- I'll take a look. It'll be much more useful when I have dedicated card pages.

Yeah, sorry about that -- working to fix some of the criticisms here and caused errors for a while. Should be ok now. Also, I think I'll need to move the help to the front page. Something to work on this weekend. Thanks again for taking

Could you give some useful criticism? I know of both these searches, and I'm not a fan of the "let a thousand input-boxes bloom" search mentality. This search is just as powerful (if not more) as these two, if you search for what you're th

Search-as-you-type would indeed be good for prefix data, but the search box itself checks quite a bit -- one-word searches are regularly in the 1,000-card range. I'll look into it, though; I agree that it would improve things. My UI is ter

I'm indeed grateful for the criticism. I know of Gatherer, and can't stand it. I've used Essential Magic for some time, but it's slow and clunky. MagicCards.info is also good, but limited in its one-box search. I built Cauldron as a sort
