I was wondering what Morgan ment by "ticalc project" when ever he would leave me. However, I know enough not to ask, and I waited patiently. This si wicked awesome. I think that I am going to read it just to see what he put there.

Great!

There is one missing question however:

Q: How do I search for RPG using the search engine without getting an error?
A: Actually, you need to type more than 3 character to perform a search, so searching for the word RPG is impossible. Instead, type "rpg and rpg" without the quotes and it will work fine.

>> "rpg and rpg"
Nice loophole ;)

Why does it work?

Thanks for the tip. :) This limit caused a problem when I was using a legitimate search term that happened to have less than 4 letters (I don't remember what it was).

But now that it's been mentioned, maybe the staff will plug the loophole. :(

Why are you required to enter more than 3 letters anyways?

because one, two, and three letter queries oftern return quite a lot of results. The processor on the server would have to devote more cycles to your search than the admin wants. Ofcourse I could be horribly wrong....

Sounds good to me!

What about letting the user execute searches with only 1-3 characters, but put a limit on the number of results returned? Would that be feasible?

...Or just use the "and" trick mentioned above...

very nice faq, it should help anyone new to d/ling games or that wants to learn how to program...does anyone remember me i haven't been here in months

Nope. Never seen ya...

Sorry Michael, I know you wanted me to add that question, but you know..not professional and all. I might add something like:

"Does the News Editor have a personal bias against me, because my posts seem to be dissappearing everywhere?"

Also should point out the question in the above link, it is also a very common misconception:

Is the B in :B supposed to be crooked teeth? It's funny.

Looks more like buck teeth.

But if you reverse it, it becomes some nice shades.
