        hi, i've got an artist in my collection for which i want to get notifications on new releases
      • 2011-03-01 06031, 2011

      • El_Rico
        last week there a a new release for that artist, but i didn't get any notification
      • 2011-03-01 06020, 2011

      • El_Rico
        is there a bug with that feature or do i need do to anything besides clicking the "notify me on new releases" link on the artist page?
      • 2011-03-01 06059, 2011

      • El_Rico
        oh, the new release fits into the categories that i want to get new releases for, as set on my collection preferences page
      • 2011-03-01 06031, 2011

      • nikki
        El_Rico: it doesn't send notifications :/
      • 2011-03-01 06047, 2011

      • El_Rico
        so it's a bug?
      • 2011-03-01 06053, 2011

      • nikki
        yes
      • 2011-03-01 06000, 2011

      • El_Rico
        narf :(
      • 2011-03-01 06000, 2011

      • nikki
        the only thing you can really do at the moment is to subscribe to the artist and check the edits
      • 2011-03-01 06028, 2011

      • El_Rico
        any chance this is going to be fixed in NGS?
      • 2011-03-01 06033, 2011

      • nikki
        it should be
      • 2011-03-01 06045, 2011

      • El_Rico
        sweet
      • 2011-03-01 06055, 2011

      • El_Rico

      • 2011-03-01 06000, 2011

      • 2011-03-01 06008, 2011

        I guess it's too convenient for laundering./

        ruaok: So does Google’s “matching donations up to $5k” mean they will match any donation of $5000 or less, or that they will donate $5000 once others have collectively donated a total of $5000?
      • 2011-03-01 06005, 2011

      • ruaok
        the latter.
      • 2011-03-01 06021, 2011

      • ruaok
        they match the total amount, up to $5k.
      • 2011-03-01 06027, 2011

      • ruaok
        thanks for the add on donation. :)
      • 2011-03-01 06045, 2011

      • hawke_
        And does it apply to donations given prior to their offer?
      • 2011-03-01 06059, 2011

      • hawke_
        I hadn’t yet donated, figured I might as well do so.
      • 2011-03-01 06008, 2011

      • ruaok
        oh, I though you had previously.
      • 2011-03-01 06012, 2011

      • hawke_
        Nope.
      • 2011-03-01 06042, 2011

      • ruaok
        nice. we're at $2250 now.
      • 2011-03-01 06009, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Counting the Google matching donation?
      • 2011-03-01 06017, 2011

      • ruaok
        and other donors gave $2k OOB from the fundraiser. So we're at $4550. Only $450 from maxing Google's donation matching.
      • 2011-03-01 06037, 2011

      • ruaok
        with Google matching we're at $9550. :)
      • 2011-03-01 06025, 2011

      • hawke_
        Wouldn’t it be 9100?
      • 2011-03-01 06050, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Kinda
      • 2011-03-01 06052, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Yeah
      • 2011-03-01 06053, 2011

      • reosarevok
        :p
      • 2011-03-01 06000, 2011

      • ruaok
        sorry. previous number was bad.
      • 2011-03-01 06003, 2011

      • hawke_
        But I’m sure we’ll get to $5000
      • 2011-03-01 06006, 2011

      • ruaok
        we're at $2550.
      • 2011-03-01 06027, 2011

      • ruaok
        so $4550 counting the other $2000.
      • 2011-03-01 06036, 2011

      • ruaok
        I'm certain.
      • 2011-03-01 06049, 2011

      • ruaok
        I think we'll cover the whole amount. :)
      • 2011-03-01 06001, 2011

      • ruaok
        there are two companies who have promised to chip in who have not.
      • 2011-03-01 06006, 2011

      • ruaok
        maybe even 3 companies.
      • 2011-03-01 06023, 2011

      • reosarevok
        I am almost beginning to like companies
      • 2011-03-01 06030, 2011

      • 2011-03-01 06043, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Ok, I'll just think of Gracenote
      • 2011-03-01 06046, 2011

      • ruaok
        lol
      • 2011-03-01 06050, 2011

      • ruaok
        ewww
      • 2011-03-01 06056, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, that worked
      • 2011-03-01 06001, 2011

      • nikki
        but without them, there would be no musicbrainz :(
      • 2011-03-01 06001, 2011

      • ruaok
        srsly.
      • 2011-03-01 06021, 2011

      • reosarevok
        That's like saying "without killing pigs there wouldn't be ham"
      • 2011-03-01 06033, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, it is kinda true, but that's not what you want to remember!
      • 2011-03-01 06036, 2011

      • 2011-03-01 06058, 2011

      • hawke_
        Ouch, those donation fees hit hard on the large donors…should try to encourage large donors to use some sort of feeless method.
      • 2011-03-01 06012, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Like "big envelopes full of cash"
      • 2011-03-01 06014, 2011

      • nikki wonders if germany has what she knows as bacon
      • 2011-03-01 06016, 2011

        nikki: you have it better. speck!
      • 2011-03-01 06041, 2011

      • nikki doesn't know a lot about meat
      • 2011-03-01 06039, 2011

      • nikki
        but I do know that people seem to translate it as schinken, which to me is ham, which is definitely not bacon
      • 2011-03-01 06022, 2011

      • reosarevok
      • 2011-03-01 06023, 2011

      • evilmoo
        speck == bacon, schinken == ham
      • 2011-03-01 06035, 2011

      • nikki
        ah
      • 2011-03-01 06046, 2011

      • reosarevok
        ok
      • 2011-03-01 06053, 2011

      • reosarevok
        That was supposed to go in nikki's PM
      • 2011-03-01 06054, 2011

      • reosarevok
        But still

      • 2011-03-01 06022, 2011

      • nikki
        and lachsschinken? (translating each part of the word really doesn't help me there :P)
      • 2011-03-01 06000, 2011

      • nikki
        reosarevok: somewhere we need to check if the title contains rtl characters and set the direction if it does
      • 2011-03-01 06015, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Ok, how do I fix it for now? :p
