If you want all of your stuff to be under one artist, USE THE SAME FUCKING NAME each time.

Also, if you want me to go to the effort of consolidating the stuff because YOU COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO REMEMBER HOW YOU TYPED IT LAST TIME, at least please TELL ME WHICH NAME YOU WANT IT CONSOLIDATED UNDER.

Jesus Goatfucking Christ.

LOL. Sorry, *if* you can be bothered, could you move the one stray to the non-umlauted page. Umlauts are so.. 2 months ago. Thanks, and I'll make sure to never umlaut another submission.

Just noticed that 2 "Lyricburglar" entries are listed as "Lyricburgler". (One seems to have been a filename spelling error by me - the other one - something else)

If they could all be collected under the name "Lyricburglar" at your convenience - that would be groovy.

Thank you.

I'd like to see all of my Nur Ein songs in my BLT achieve.

You got it.

You don't.

I don't what, see them? No they're not there. But then again, why would they be there? They weren't hosted by SF. But I would like them hosted here, maybe with a - Nur Ein after the song, or something. I think some of my better tunes were done during Nur Ein.
.....also a couple of my worst, lol.

The post was paired with the one above it.

Spud - I went to the archive to link a fellow SF!er to a song of mine, and encountered this: The Stinko archive is broken in two, with one section under del, the other Del. My fault. But usually when you open one up, they are both joined and all the songs listed. Today, however, only the smaller batch would show, and the same songs for each listing. Does that make sense? Like, it only shows the same 21 songs for both del and Del, not all 50whatever there are. No biggie, just a weird thing I encountered. Thanks for your time.

Well, you didn't say whether you wanted them consolidated or not, but I did, anyway. You also didn't say which version of the name you preferred, so I went with Paco del Stinko, since you had more entries under that name, so I had to change fewer of them. Also, it's what you've used more recently.

Anyone else who needs archive consolidation, let me know, and I will take it under advisement. i.e. send beer.

SPUD

Hey thanks, Spud. Yeah, as Bill Hinc pointed out, del is the proper way to spell it. But I was pointing out that while in the past all the songs would automatically consolidate under either/or both spellings, when I looked today it was only the same 21 under both spellings, all the others out in the void. Regardless, thanks for spiffing it up and I will indeed send beer.

Yeah, I see what happened. Previously, the artist pages were generated on the fly. Now they are cached, so one Paco was overwriting the other. This way is better. All sixty in one place.

Hey Spud,

For some reason Ken's Super Duper Band 'n Stuff only shows one entry on the archive page.

It's not for SOME reason, it's for the SAME reason. Inconsistent band name spelling strategy ( 'n vs. n' ). I have consolidated your two archives into one, and now they all show up.

FIXED

Dear Spud,
I was wondering if you can fix mine too. It seems that the new format made all of my songs suck. Could you please make them not.

Thanks Spud!!!

i dont care if my name is consoladated or not, but i noticed that 21 of my submissions have been erased from the " search by artist " page. Both names now just have the same 3 songs.

Consolidating is currently the only way to fix this problem. I have done so, and all 24 of your songs are now showing up.

SPUD

thank you very very much.

Hey Spud, I have a problem with mine too. None of my songs show up with that spiffy "WINNER" tag!

Don't worry, Rone. They're all winners in my heart.....all winners. You have been hurt, Sir....you HAVE been hurt. WHO HURT YOU? Who, Rone....who hurt you?

edit: ooops, never mind. I thought you were Lionel Richie.

Hi Spud,

Additionally, the Seamus Collective has this issue of only showing one song.

Thanks!

Ken, that's because "the Seamus Collective" only entered one fight. "The Seamus Collective" entered nine, however.

SPUD

Oh, and FIXED. People: You want your stuff in the same archive? Use the same band name each time. OK?
