I don't getcha, sorry.
I'm just saying that it's easier to see what has already been listed with a database table for stuff we've already mentioned than with the A-Z list published in the thread we seem to be using - the problem with that thread is, it's going to get very, very large very quickly (some 90 entries) and so long as people keep adding new ones you face the trouble that people arn't going to be able to keep it up to date, new listings will ALWAYS drop off now and then as people copy/paste an older one while making a post - not to mention the average post length is going to be 60+ lines each when it's updated with most of the files currently available.

I'm just saying a database is going to be an essential to keep track of the information, it's how we did it on Yahoo (many, many years ago) and that was only a small list.

Obviously you're going to need to talk about scenes here in thread before adding them to prevent the inevitable double-posts under different names, misremembered episode numbers or people adding stuff in without bothering to include all details...

Oh, and if someone mentions a new scene we don't already have - it'll be a race ^_^
I ripped about 1/3rd of all the files in the downloads section over the years, lost most of 'em too, sadly. Thankfully people are reposting them again.
I'm still searching for my list on my PC... I know it's here somewhere...
