No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

ita, very helpful to convert the post numbers to links. Did you do it with Search and Replace? Looks like the converter changed HTML tags into... HTML tags -- nice bug feature. I sent the "Not Implemented" Word doc to Am-Chau for future editing.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Good table. That makes it a lot clearer.

Hee. Post 780 has fallen foul of the great Scourge of Tags. FTR, I was in favour of t sup and t sub being enabled.

Man, I started celebrating it way too early then. Drink up, people, I'm three months ahead of you.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Implemented:

377 - John H - Shorten screen-stretching URLs
WX - ThreadSuck capability

I didn't think either of these was implemented yet. I never heard anything about the former being done. ThreadSuck's been written, but not implemented (unless you're talking about changing the number of posts displayed as a pseudo-suck).

Unimplemented:

511 and 776 are the same thing. 2009 is missing the tag. It should be "Add quickedit code for <br>

You know what confused me on 511, was that Dana asked for description on the "boomkark" feature and I didn't figure it out her meaning until later. Doesn't the thread-stretching work? I thought I saw one wrapping today. Edit: I must've seen one wrapping at a question mark in a URL.

re. 780:

Support t BLOCKQUOTE tag (echoed by Liese S. Rebecca Lizard wants t TT too, billytea wants t SUP and t SUB, Noumenon wants t CENTER).

I'm not sure if this is what billytea, as I am tired and I don't entirely understand his post; but blockquote & tt have been implemented; but not sup or sub or center yet.

... Might we ever get t s ever if it's possible? I'm so goddamn lazy I sulk every time I have to type t strike full out.
