Mar 27, 2026: found it!

A little bit more than two months ago, I noted there was a bug in my release ID generation process, and I just verified exactly what it is.

All of that to say, I confirmed my suspicions and the solution I had in mind then, is still the same solution I have in mind now. I wasn't waiting for this confirmation to take that path, I just haven't been motivated to do so as of yet.

I could easily fix it right now. I will not easily fix it right now. Release 142 is only whispers of a myth, entirely a legend.

Found it!

Before we get into the meat of it, I also slightly adjusted the column widths on tcdb trades so that the Partner name did not wrap on the full desktop app.

One way or another, we will finish this box of football cards from derek this weekend - starting with 2007 SP Authentic.

Some quick hitters:

• Always happy to see donald driver show up to the party.
• Is walter jones my favorite lineman of all time? He's in the running.
• I hate the patriots. I hate the vikings. Somehow, randy moss beats those odds
• tom brady is a turd.

83 cards into the keeper pile and 288 cards into the trade pile.

As for the meat of it, cipher ripped through the code base, and moved the TCDb Trades data it runs off of, from being embedded into these chronicles into a database backend. Because we already had a roadmap based upon the previous work done to volleyball tournaments, it was quite quick.

We go from......

<ReleaseSection
  alterEgo="cardattack"
  tcdbTradeId="997119"
  tcdbTradePartner="JBarbs80"
  sent="19"
  received="20"
>

......to......

<ReleaseSection alterEgo="cardattack" tcdbTradeId="997119">

I used to sometimes forget to fill out all of the data because I had to hand type it. Now, well, I can still forget to do stuff, it's just much easier not too now. Plus, forward facing flexibility added.

Iterate.
