Can't believe I just saw this. Great job! I've been in some deep withdrawal ever since the forums switched.

Thanks for the great work. The only thing that I would ask you look into is:

It looks like it is truncating the posts to 200 characters or less, so to see the full posts I have to go to the thread (I read these with Google Reader on my cell phone and it doesn't like loading the full forums.) Any way that you can set it to show more characters?

It's a dev digest, not a whole post consolidator. I wouldn't want to see more text, clutter it up and make it less useful.

Did you turn this off when the dev and comm digests came back? Cos I was excited to have something I could view in my browser even if I wasn't at the City forums.

No, I don't intend to shut it down any time soon. Please report in this thread if something breaks.

Edit: Ok, looks like I've been banned (or rather, the particular GAE server has been)

Sorry. The administrator has banned your IP address.
I'm going to contact the team and see if something can be worked out.

The program may have been creating a very noticeable amount of traffic and/or server load. Remember that the search feature on this forum is limited because of how much CPU time it takes up.

It is something I have considered. It might not matter, but my view is that it is better to have one place fetching all posts than many people all hitting the search function directly.

Also, keep in mind that the new official digest is generated dynamically as well, and appears to be based on the search function.

well that sucks hope they give you accsess again.

Not exactly sure what happened, but it's working again. Give it 15-20 minutes to catch up on old posts.

Yay! Thanks.

While I'm glad that the official trackers are online now, I'm more happy that this one is working again, if for no other reason than it gives a partial preview of the post in question.

I keep coming back to this tracker for the same reason. That and one-stop shopping for both digests.

I mentioned that to Niv over the weekend and she has since fixed that.

This version also has a XML feed that isn't broken. The official feed thinks EVERY dev post is new, so every couple of hours you have a hundred new items in your feed reader.

Also on Steam

Seems the language filter is still broken.

Any thoughts Devian? Or any clue as to when it may be resolved?

Thanks by the way, I love your Digest.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Whooops - fixed. I haven't had time to assign a language to the newly created open beta forums, hence posts therein defaulted to being classified as English.

Please continue to report any issue here. The way the digest is set up, there are two things I'll have to keep up with manually:

1. Languages for new forums
2. Adding new Red Names to the list

Just would like to report that Google Reader just offered your site as a suggestion for my feeds. Your work isn't going unnoticed!

Great job.
