*fingers crossed*
Let's hope I don't bugger it up, along the way.

In the game downloads page there used to be a link that leads to the blog post about the game, I am not able to see it now.

Yeah, that, the YouTube (when rarely used!) as well as links to music pages are all currently missing.
I might split the "bonus downloads" into a left (downloads) and right (links), and plop them in there.
Not sure, yet.
It's getting a bit chaotic in there!!!

Comments should now be working.
Tomorrow will be all about spam removal, I expect

Added a comment in the page https://agameaweek.com/?id=4904#Commentry
I was able to click the "Post Comment" without entering anything the second time.
"Post Comment" button color looks can be modified as it looks like it is in disabled state.

Thanks for testing
Comment approved.

This morning, 4 spam comments (already!) have been removed, and their keywords added to the spam filter.
If you click "Post Comment" without any content, it doesn't bother adding it to the database, but .. yeah, I've tweaked the script so it doesn't pretend that it did!!

Button tweaked to match other form elements! Lazy Jay!

Looking good.
The filters on the right produce results very fast. I simply clicked on games and popular and got NeonPlat 2 at the top. I am working on a Ubuntu laptop and luckily NeonPlat 2 had a Linux executable which I was able to play. I was blown away by the Neon style graphics, very lively animation as well. After I play in windows with sound I'll write my full review.
So from a game discovery point of view, the site changes are having a great effect.

I'll be adding a few more discovery features, too. At the minute the sidebar and mini-posts that appear under a post are both very static. I'll be changing them up in the future to make things a bit more random and unexpected!
For now, though, they just show "Recent Xxx", which isn't always interesting.

Although the following feature is entirely useless to members of SoCoder, due to the way AGameAWeek and SoCoder use the same BBCode, you got a new BBCode today!!
Woot!!

Server stress...



The blue line is SoCoder.
The red line is all of AGameAWeek. (Blog, games, Pixelart, etc.)

At the start of this year, old SoCoder was averaging 1,800 per page, and AGameAWeek was about 3 or 4 separate scripts, of which the Wordpress alone would average about 2,000 per page.
(Where 2,000 is 0.2 milliseconds, and I'm too lazy to bother figuring out how to display "significant decimal places" so just multiplied everything up!)


I'm now looking at roughly 900 and 400, respectively, which is a massive decrease in CPU load.

*toots his own horn*
