    Ok, a question for those of you who have been in the trenches a while. I see some people trying to add things like spreadsheets and PDA programs in the database. My gut reaction is that these are not games and shouldn't be in the games database but maybe I'm off-base on that. Some guidance would be appreciated.

    I'd also like to add my request to have a copy of the rules and guidelines. I have a current question about which characters can cause problems in game names. Is the tilde ~ one of those problematic characters?

    The database is very large and it also appears to try to check alternate names for those games so 10 seconds on a high-volume day, especially if a lot of people are making additions to the DB is to be expected. Perhaps, in the future, they'll change it so you can just search one part of the database, such as one system to speed things up.

    I agree with your take on Fan Art. From a C64 perspective Fan Art needs to stay. So many C64 titles were and still are put out without actual boxes that Fan Art is a necessity.

    Re: #2 Protect "complete" Platforms from duplicate/invalid games. I think this needs to be implemented very carefully, I come from a heavy C64 background where there are many instances of multiple games having the exact same name. Not that this isn't already something of a problem, but a solution would need to be put in play to allow for this.
