Can you believe it’s been two weeks since the last Scatter Storming? That’s messed up, man. Anyway, as I posted some minor updates yesterday, I realized that there are quite a few more I’d like to relay to you guys. And since I’m at work, it all fits. I tried to find a YouTube clip of a Warcraft III Orc saying “work work”, but it wasn’t easy so I gave up.
REPEAT! The Upcoming Page –
Yeah, I talked about this yesterday, but if I’m going to be giving the full update, it’ll be weird leaving something out. Like I said, we’ve updated the Upcoming Page complete with a few surprises, but I wanted to remind you all that you’re welcome to suggest your own theme weeks. Are there things you want to see Riddles and I devote our week to? Specific games or game-related topics you’d be interested to see us smear our way too opinionated thoughts all over? Let us know.
HIATUS’D! Fate of the News Roundup –
Thank you for the positive feedback regarding the Roundup! However, Riddles and I have still decided to put the feature on a little bit of a hiatus. Not to say it’s gone away forever, but we’re trying to restructure a few things, and so we’re not sure what kind of place the Roundup will have. For now, you can still expect to see Riddles’ Hey! Look! Listen! twice a week for your Riddlethos flavoured news. And it’s now branded with a beautiful new logo. I like logos, and you might end up seeing more of them…
ARCHIVED! Okay, these slugs aren’t that creative this time… –
Yup, the Archives Page has been updated as well. It now organizes itself in chronological order instead of alphabetical as well as giving a date indicating when that week started. Just pay no attention to the inexplicable existence of and attached date to the “Uncategorized” category. We’re just as confused as you are.
SHEEN! Other little touchups -
Like I mentioned, we’ve added a logo to the Hey! Look! Listen! segment, and there are talks of more on the way. In addition to that, you may have noticed that the top tabs follow you to whatever page you go to. A small cosmetic change, sure, but it makes me happy!
SPAMM’D! Sorry! -
I apologize to everyone who subscribes to our comment feed as we seem to have some very bizarre spammers. Sure, it’s all strangely complimentary, but spam is spam. We’re working on getting rid of the problem.
Thanks to Charlie, who is responsible for many of the updates mentioned above. Questions, suggestions, and reactions are welcomed and can – as always – go in the comments below or be e-mailed directly to feedback@riddlethos.com
Thanks, losers, that’s it!

Holy crap, there’s a universal comments feed. That’s SO MUCH easier than subscribing for every article as it comes out, thanks for the link :D.
Whoa, I can see what you mean by weird spam. They sure to love Ico, apparently.
“I tried to find a YouTube clip of a Warcraft III Orc saying “work work”, but it wasn’t easy so I gave up.”
-Now that’s a philosophy I could live by.
-How about “Oliver finally gets to be the man” week?
@Darth – You didn’t know about the comments feed?
I should make that more public!
@SN – Bah- ha ha ha. Oh don’t worry, host themed weeks are not out of the question.
I didn’t know about it either, very useful.
Sorry guys!
I’ll see what I can do about a sidebar link.
That’s ok, we forgive you.
This time.
Something might be up with the feed, though. So far, it’s only got the comments from up to yesterday, nothing that’s been posted today (at least according to google reader). Also, google reader seems to pick it up fine, but if I try to view it in any browser they all complain about errors. I think the index.html file maybe should be index.xml instead or something. Granted, my RSS knowledge is limited at best, so I’d say it’s much more likely something’s wrong on my end than anything else.
Of course, as soon as I post that, all the new entries show up in my rss reader. I guess that’s a big “never mind, I’m just impatient.”
I was experiencing the same thing. There seemed to be about an hour or so delay in my comments appearing, still very useful though.
I’ve actually noticed it being slow as well recently. Even before I made the post about it. Hopefully it’s just temporary, because it used to be super-speedy.
haha, SN and I are sucking all the power out of it. For everybody that subscribes, it gets slower and slower!
Bah-ha ha ha. That’s why I mentioned it was slower even before I made the post.
Hmmm, looking closer at this I think I’m comfortable blaming google reader itself. It looks like it’s only checking the feed once every several hours, so that’s why I wasn’t seeing things very quickly. I’ll have try to find an override for that somewhere.
