New games' lists.
smokester:
Over time we will be introducing wiki hosted lists for our games, and before you update one of these there is an important aspect that people should be aware of. That is that if you edit a page as a guest, your IP will be displayed in the page history. The combat this all you have to do is register there and only your ID will show after that. I realise that many of the game players already have accounts so they have no need to worry.
Before anyone complains about this there are a number of reasons why we will need to do something like this sooner or later, as a dozen or more games' lists being copied and pasted repeatedly every day, makes no sense to the size and manageability of our database for one thing alone. But there are other benefits too and this should really be welcomed as it can only serve to keep as healthy and around for the long term.
If anyone is unsure how to edit and update these lists when they appear, then please ask one of the staff for some help.

I don't get this. Maybe it's the lack of brain I'm using since I just woke up and got this message.

Demonoid has tons of data added everyday and many a techie to keep the database clean - either that or it's your list updating that broke them.
