Heh, considering the sheer amount of work that must've gone into the
Magic database, I almost feel kind of guilty asking questions about it. 1. Why are all Unglued cards listed as blue? 2. When do you expect the database will be updated to include cards from Scourge? It's not urgent or anything, I was just wondering. BL Alien ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ---------------------~--> Get A Free Psychic Reading!

Er, the Unglued cards are all blue because the "color" in the data from the
Wizards site lists the color as "Unglued" and the converter simply uses the first character of the color. I just looked at the Wizards data on their site, and I helped Robert with the converter, so I'm familiar with how it works. I'll let Robert know so that he can correct this. As for Scourge, Wizards has not yet posted the spoiler list in the standard format they always use. The conversion engine Robert wrote uses the spoiler data from Wizards as its input. If Wizards doesn't release the spoiler data in the traditional format soon, he'll have to write a separate converter for the data that he CAN get ahold of (and he'd prefer not doing that, since it would take a fair chunk of time). I don't know the exact timetable for when Robert will give up and write a new converter, but I do know that he's working a second job right now, so his time is scarce. Keep your fingers cross Wizards posts the spoiler data in their usual format soon, since Robert can process that with little effort using his existing converter. :-) Thanks, Rob At 01:01 AM 5/21/2003 +0000, you wrote: >Heh, considering the sheer amount of work that must've gone into the >Magic database, I almost feel kind of guilty asking questions about >it. > >1.
