I didn't bothered to add it in a new table cell, but in the same cell as the tickbox (so it moves things :))

ok, he may be more happy now with space glitch and such
2006-06-08 15918, 2006

I think the verbage would probably have to be changed to "Verify Date" to keep all happy or "Please Verify" something of that sort
2006-06-08 15936, 2006
dmp_panda
take your pick :p

hee.. and when you do things backwards like enter the month, day and then the year it says invalid before you finish... (just nitpickin') :)
2006-06-08 15954, 2006
teleGUISE
well don't ask Nyght which verbage cuz she will have us talking in a circle for an hour :P

teleGUISE: I just want to get things done... I'm not going to debate and argue after a point.. it's useless.

there's way too much of that on the mailing list. :)
2006-06-08 15949, 2006
dmp_panda
it does until you finish adding a year between 1900 - 2100 ;)
2006-06-08 15926, 2006
teleGUISE
i guess "Please Verify" will probably have to be used.. though its not the best ...actually though not sure how to make it not confusing, you had to tick a box to accept that possibly invalid date would be best..

well, first there are purely invalid dates 1912/24/52
2006-06-08 15929, 2006
teleGUISE
but guess there isnt a way to do that on that page being it says at the top to tick boxes you want to remove
2006-06-08 15955, 2006
dmp_panda
mmm...
2006-06-08 15906, 2006
teleGUISE
as you know presently it just lets you enter them and then goes back
2006-06-08 15931, 2006
teleGUISE
it's not on the fly its done when you click continue
2006-06-08 15953, 2006
dmp_panda
so, *maybe* (not sure), we may prevent to actually try submitting a completely invalid date;
2006-06-08 15959, 2006
teleGUISE
i guess you could do it that way
2006-06-08 15945, 2006
teleGUISE
well you could either do it that way or follow the flow of where it says invalid date say Verify Date... to continue again.. might be easier to integrate that way
2006-06-08 15949, 2006
teleGUISE
not ideal though
2006-06-08 15957, 2006
dmp_panda
and for other *potentially* not coherent dates (Sundays), just let the day indication as is, and let the user submit?
2006-06-08 15927, 2006
teleGUISE
of course you also have to limit only the 1 country by day... (but i know this is just a primer)
2006-06-08 15904, 2006
teleGUISE
the main 3 would be US, UK and JP cuz DE is weird :)
2006-06-08 15906, 2006
teleGUISE
did Sheppy jump in or is it his ghost?
2006-06-08 15909, 2006
dmp_panda
1 country by day or 1 day by country? :)
2006-06-08 15905, 2006
teleGUISE
1 country by day... cuz DE has more than 1 day possible
2006-06-08 15947, 2006
teleGUISE
though the table can be added and expanded once the main infrastructure is in place.. that parts easy
2006-06-08 15949, 2006
dmp_panda
ok: by the way, I guess it's safe to assume that a release should be between 1900 and 2100, right ? ;)
2006-06-08 15956, 2006
teleGUISE
i really wish we could have a expanded and condensed country list... I mean no disrespect to all the other countries but I guarantee 90%+ of all the album adds are either UK, US, JP, DE, FR .. i dont need a list of 80 countries to choose from

Wrong, that was three minutes. :D

ok what response and how many minutes ago was the comment this time ;)?
2006-06-08 15948, 2006
Nyght
other countries. :P
2006-06-08 15926, 2006
teleGUISE
im sure that would never happen cuz everyone would want their country to be on the condensed list... blah blah .. nobody would agree and hence why we have a 80 country list to choose from
2006-06-08 15900, 2006
Nyght
Of course.
2006-06-08 15913, 2006
teleGUISE
but things like Uzbekistan, Vanuata .. umm i think they have a 0 release count in the db so aren't on the top 10.. i think 10 could cover it..
2006-06-08 15941, 2006
teleGUISE
ah maybe not...
2006-06-08 15925, 2006
teleGUISE
forgot what site does it but they do have like a top 10 then list the other countries below.. which would be nice
2006-06-08 15913, 2006
dmp_panda
or a button to switch on the fly between condensed list / full list?
2006-06-08 15917, 2006

anway... since im talking to myself... I think anything is a possible improvement over what we have

but again won't people whom aren't on the condensed list bitch cuz they always have to hit Full..
2006-06-08 15904, 2006
teleGUISE
i dunno... i think they can suffer :) .. unless they can show they are entering a ton of releases from that country I dont see why clicking another button would hurt.. It sure would make the common edits easier though

especially these who grab their dates from amz.oulanbator :D

no they have a map like Martin mentioned
2006-06-08 15957, 2006

errr no they dont I thought they did.. they just have a pic of a map up top
2006-06-08 15923, 2006

and why would they care about releases of cds
2006-06-08 15905, 2006
teleGUISE
who said it was a cd release site that has a country pull down list?
2006-06-08 15934, 2006
teleGUISE
it was a site to choose where you would be directed for assistance/info/etc..
2006-06-08 15958, 2006

just like logitech has but in a pull down menu fashion
2006-06-08 15906, 2006

I had thought you wanted a top release site so we could potentially prune out some never released countries...
2006-06-08 15950, 2006
teleGUISE
huh? we have a list that nobody wanted to tell me what inhouse's url was that shows the countries by amount of releases
2006-06-08 15909, 2006
teleGUISE
that would be the way to create our top 10 or whatever... but I dont know the url
2006-06-08 15951, 2006
Nyght
well, I can't read his mind.. no, I was seeking out general release information.
2006-06-08 15913, 2006

curious from your experience what days primarily DE fell on.. or should I say which days you haven't seen them fall on.. since we know DE is weird and release any day.. From what I've experienced it usually is either Monday, Wednesday or Friday
well fuchs told me some time ago that we indeed *have* an official release day. it was changed to friday some time ago (dunno what it was before). but I've seen releases being released at different days
2006-06-08 15917, 2006
teleGUISE
Nyght: I was right :) .. Friday was the main day
2006-06-08 15901, 2006

Yep, it's just the most obvious disc ids mainly trying to get those down for a little while. Again, mindless edits of late
2006-06-08 15905, 2006
teleGUISE
it seems like if the release was also in the UK then the day matched.. meaning if the UK and DE release were the same it was Monday for both UK & DE
2006-06-08 15929, 2006
teleGUISE
did you see the link..
2006-06-08 15950, 2006

yes
2006-06-08 15905, 2006
teleGUISE
we could have a top 20 it looks like
2006-06-08 15931, 2006
teleGUISE
never would have thought Russian Federation was up on the list that high
2006-06-08 15944, 2006

"20" even include unknown country ;)
2006-06-08 15904, 2006

2006-06-08 15931, 2006

oh i picked 5 and Finland did beat out France

2006-06-08 15909, 2006

heee.. I wonder if that 1 Zimbabwe release was the one I set along time ago before we had unknown country ;).. too bad I cant recall what release that was

updated the version online - it's now more polite ("red" the wrong) and should be better at guessing what is invalid
2006-06-08 15945, 2006

you can't read the sites where I found it anyways :)
2006-06-08 15921, 2006

well like I said mainly I recall German being on Mon, Wed, or Friday... but you would know more so.. At least of the releases i've done (i'd say 95%) were 1 of those 3 days

when should it say Invalid or Verify or whatever... I flushed closed ie reopened still the same thing .. shows the day but never says bad date
