Some sites put 'fuzzy magic bits' in the URL that will reduce your Lightpost to bits of shattered metal and shards of glass. Stupid way to make a website, but Pathmakers need to beware. Yahoo Local does this.
Post here if you find a site that eats Lightposts, or if you find some way around a problem website. |

There should probably be a simple URL filter that will remove certain parts of certain sites' URLs before they're checked for goodies. How much control players would have over the filter is another issue, but they should have some, e.g. to be able to submit new patterns. |

So when I use tinyurl, I can get a mission to a particular page that was otherwise unreachable but the popup box associated with the mission (e.g. with the previous and next links) doesn't make the journey. Is there more to working with tinyurls that you could share? Thanks in advance. Pica |
