I don't know about anybody else, but when I look here, I see bife's 'JC' accolade twice linked to.

Fixed. I suspect this was due to merging this film's data with a dupe (also in that accolade) a while back.

Benj, when one selects 'Unvoted only' and goes from, say, a user's first 100 to second 100, the new page is the second unvoted 100 at that point, rather than when one started. In other words, one misses the same number of reviews that one voted on on the previous page. I assume that it would be tricky to compensate for this, but I thought I'd highlight it just in case.

(N.B. I realise that this is not a glitch in the same sense as the above.)

Benj,

I just tried searching for films with the word "Thesis" (using search.asp not advsearch.asp). The 59 results at first seemed bizarre, then I got it. The search tool rightfully strips "The" and checks for the rest of the entry (hence all the "sister" films in the results). I've confirmed this with a search of "Theory" which draws anything with "story" in the title.

A cure for this would be to have it only ignore "The ". That is t-h-e-(space). Or maybe better, ignoring:
", The ("

Can this be done, or is there another way around it?

one potential workaround is to search for 'hesis' no 'the' thus it searches for the whole word. There are no matches incidentally.

I recently wanted to search for Them. Didn't think of using hem.

When one clicks 'Reviewer Name' on the recent reviews page, it in fact sorts by film name.

Has anyone else noticed that the ranking system varies between the sidebar and the top 100 page? On the latter it is (presumably) alphabetical, whereas on the former it is (presumably) by I.D. number. Thus Catuli and I are currently both 67 and 68.

Benj, pending reviews seem to be cut off at 60 characters. Please could you correct that if you are able to from where you are?

Whereabouts is this happening? When displayed, when being edited, when saved from being edited or somewhere else?

One can fill in more characters in the review submission box (either on the film page or when editing the review), but in the pending list it is cut off at 60 characters. It isn't just a display thing - when one edits the review it still only has the first 60 characters.

Sal's right. When I tried to lengthen my Designing Woman review from:

"SuperCaliforniaFashionStylistExplosiveAndDuplicious."

to:

"Marilla is Peck's SuperCaliforniaFashionStylistExplosiveAndDuplicious." It cut the review off starting with Duplicious.

When I shortened it to "Marilla is Peck's SuperCaliFashionStylExplosiveAndDuplicious" it cut off the period, which would have been the 61st "character".

There's no such word as "Duplicious". Perhaps you mean "Duplicitous"?

Sigh. Dyslexia again. Thanks and I've fixed the submission.

Something strange is going on here. In chronological order, my review (106869) comes first, but in anti-chronological order, Yelnats's (106870) comes last.
