Hey Chucky, I was checking the voting results and my parody "Bong Song" is NOWHERE on th polls. I'm not complaining but where did it go?

i think i might have something to do with ¨the strong song¨ by jared that was up yesterday having 240 votes i think there was a file mix up

for some reason, Jared's parody got assigned the same URL as yours.. I'll fix it soon hopefully

There appears to be several new parodies that were assigned the same file names as old parodies, there's a serious issue here, that shouldn't have occured. No idea why..

ARGH!!!!!!!!

I can be soo, soo stupid when I write stuff sometimes.. Old parodies, parodies added before I began tracking the submission date, are getting overwritten by a bad assumption I made when I added the ability to remove parodies from the site. It's slightly complicated how I made this bad assumption, but the gist of it, is that I've potentially got a few dozen old parodies that are right now overwritten by newer parodies.

Unfortunately, I have to leave for the evening.. I'm going to need to spend a few hours in the morning figuring out which parodies inherited old filenames (a quick script should help me there), and then figure out new file names for the new parodies, and try and move some of the voting files over.

This also explains why I was seeing old voting files on parodies when I thought that problem no longer was going to happen.

Okay, I was just wondering.
Hey, maybe someday-month-year we could retire certain parodies.

I just think that it would be kewl to retire songs into a Hall of Fame or something.

Retire from viewing? Or just from voting?

voting, I think that's what he means
