YDC72 Announcement

[CarnoustieCats]

As I say I have added mine to the ones already there rather than have them floating about on their own - as long as the Taiblet is easily found to bid on I am happy ...

I just think it makes sense to have the standard match what works best, and I happen to know that Babs has computer probs at the moment and it could be a few days before she can get back here to lay the law dow... er, cast her vote, so now's the time for discussion so she can pontificate upon her return.

I agree - and anything you suggest is fine with me...

I saw ydc=12; ydc 72=10; and ydc*72=170 (many ? not ydc)
Trying to get some listing done before the holiday

We can't have this on page 2, so bump it goes

I was too busy to YDC shop last month, but will make an effort to check what's for sale this time so please list lots of nice things!

I am working on it

When I do my search I get 18 records http://uk.ebid.net/perl/main.cgi?go=...&go.x=0&go.y=0

Yours are right under Moony's box of tat, and the space doesn't appear to make any difference.

One of life's little mysteries it seems!

Bingo! It's your search that's the problem. So many people get confused about what form the YDC number should take, with or without a space that it's recommended that you search for "YDC*" - the star (*) means "and any other characters here", so all versions are picked up. People still got confused and put the star in the title in several cases. Babs has tried to reinforce the standard is without a space, to get as many getting it right as poss (which is why I picked up on what you'd said) but it's an uphill battle.

But the ideal is: no space in the code; and a star in the search.

Give us an example as to how YDC72 USA should look.
