Yes, but he wanted the title of the review to be Origin of Species. I worried that it would cause confusion, and maybe it has. Should I go re-title it?

I would, cause the review titles have allwayse been the product name.  you can add Origin of species to the subtext that's what it's for.  It realy does cause confusion.  and besides Micah never comes to the sight so he'll never notice  ;)

also Fell Xro Dinn Chronicles by Kid is a RPG not a movie  ;)

I have two questions that I could just as easily ask if I got on IM and talked to Fell, but I choose not to for reasons that I don't wish to elaborate upon.

1) Why is the current poll so very popular?  I can't imagine that we have that many real hits - maybe I'm just being cynical.

2) The article on Rifts Bionics is almost half italicized.  The italics didn't seem to have any significance so I can only assume that's a mistake?  (That wasn't actually a question, but I put a question mark on the end anyway.)

I like italics as an artistic choice--they show a lot of charisma. However, for those with a more poorly-defined literary palate, I have taken them out.

As for the other question you had, I've forgotten what it was and don't wish to look it up. I will, however, end this sentence with an exclamation point as a sign that, had I actually answered the question, I would have done so emphatically!

the poll is broken, you can vote multiple times - it keeps re-setting

Nope, poll is functioning normally. It's more likely that your Internet provider is resetting your IP address every time you log on, and that you're cookies don't work properly.

Two things, in the Wolfen Empire article I submited I refrenced Rifts Aftermath twice instead of Seige of Tolkin because that article has appeared to have vanished from this site.  I checked all the deparments and didn't notice it.

and Tage I don't think our search function works 100%, it finds words in the body of a review but not in the title.

I don't think I have it searching the title, to tell the truth. I figured that the body contents would contain at least as many keywords as the title. Am I wrong?

no only in a few cases, for example when I was looking for the seige of tolkin book nothing came up.  There is one other review with seige in the name and that's dungeon seige.  and that didn't come up either.

ok I justed noticed why the d&d articles you post never come up in the correct sort.

you put D&D in the meta tag

it should be DnD how the sort works is there are 3 varables and they are seperated by the "&" symbol.   So I made it DnD sence D&D would crash it.

Ha, I forgot about that. The & symbol is part of URL encoding, so yeah, it doesn't work with forms very well.
