Comes up as "something's gone wrong" for me today.

um, you might've run out. I've been putting them up only a few days in advance and whilst the laptop does have 1008 on it i may not have uploaded it.

koogs, Saturday, 8 October 2022 13:43 (one year ago) link

yeah, was exactly that. pushed now...

Ah cool! I got it straight away but I think it might be one of those ones where the punctuation messes with it realising that you completed the title.

No worries if this is a project you don't want to be tied to forever, but I will say that I play daily and enjoy it a lot.

oh, you are right

i've typed in all the words in the title and it's still saying i have the following left to type:


Array [ "", "" ]

so, yes, a genuine bug (and i should've checked that). i do wonder if the other bug report from above is apple converting an input ' to the curly version, because i couldn't reproduce. but this isn't that.

october's theme has helped with any ennui i may've had given that i have more ideas than i have days. but, yeah, that's 130 i've done now...

bug fixed - the opening and ending quotes confused it. the fix is to not add empty words to the title words list.

three weeks pass...

rats, i thought i'd done up to the end of the month but there's a hole on the 28th -31st.

i've added one for today and 1101 - 1103, will try fill the gap appropriately later. (all october was horror stories of some stripe or other, including an entire week of vampire stories)

one month passes...

calamity. did a bunch of new games the other day and didn't push them so it's been broken the last week.

and i checked the 'previous games' page and there was a bug - using "+" to concat two numbers added them instead (which i didn't see when i wrote it because of the way i padded single digit mm and dd numbers which converted them to strings)

four months pass...

All the recent games come up "Something has gone wrong..."

INDEPENDENTS DAY BY STEVEN SPILBERG (President Keyes), Friday, 12 May 2023 13:55 (eleven months ago) link

yeah, i ran out of books / enthusiasm. there are about 10 month's-worth, so anything from 0601 to 1231 and 0101 to 03xx will work.

(0404 is the latest)

ok, tidied that up now - if it can't find a game for 'today' then it'll link to the new archive page that lists all available games so you can choose.

if anyone has ideas for books to add then let me know. (the full list of 306 (spoilers!) is at https://acdean.github.io/bookish/titles.txt)
