we can calculate everything else, see above re: the formula.
I'm against storing only the absolute episode number, because it will pretty much guarantee queries with a calculation in them, when people request stuff by season or episode within season number.
We can calculate in reverse, because I see way fewer reasons to ever query by absolute episode #.
I can tell I'm risking getting overinvested in this, when I'm not going to code.
But I volunteer for design, and for assuring stuff conforms to current Phoenix standards.
As for a call to arms, sure! Go!
I have a feature for release 3.2 of the search engine (which is in beta). Search by date to let you see if anyone mentioned your name today in Natter. I thought of this when we had some posts about scrappy's dental work 500 posts after the initial discussion.
I'd like to humbly request that we get features like the search engine and threadsuck out of beta before we embark on a new project.
I think Jessica should volunteer to be the collector of the special ME ID numbers for all the eps she has on tape/disk.
Um, don't tape, and have no interest in this project. Sorry.
I don't think the projects intersect, Jon.
Certainly I'm the only one involved in both, and they aren't pulling from the same resource space of me.
I'll volunteer to get the special ME ID numbers, but I may have to fake first season
Angel
codes until the DVDs come out, since I didn't tape all the shows then.

Most episode guide sites have the codes with the episode numbers.
Certainly not a high priority, but as someone who just bounces on the "Read New" button, would it be possible to add a way to be automatically subscribed to new (non-NAFDA, non-spoiler, non-adult) threads?

Either that, or a 'subscribe' button (edit: or link) in the thread.

Nah -- that wouldn't work. If you use Read New all the time, you won't ever even see the new thread unless you know a new thread is coming and go look for it in either Home or your profile. For my part, I remembered to go hunting for a new Natter this morning, but I frankly have no idea whether the Farscape thread ever got created or not. If it's there, it has never once crossed my radar.
One thought, although it's harder to code, would be a dialogue you'd get the first time you hit Read New after a thread's been added; something like "A new thread (title) (slug) has been created. Do you want to subscribe to it?"
