Magic Album - Database Errors, Missed Cards and Pictures

[chreschi]

Well, my spare time / vacation is up, so I won't have time to do this at the moment. Still, an answer would be appreciated (if anything, close the ticket, pls).

It can take a while but I can add database entries for these cards if you haven't already Goblin Hero.

I just have a couple of questions first:

1 - Should MPR OVS be grouped as a special set or will they be part of their respective sets? I can maybe use the comments field to tell them apart (see here).

2 - This one is possibly too nitpicky but what's the best syntax for inputting multi-paragraph text in the Text and Text(Oracle) fields of the database? i.e. how does MA distinguish between single sentences and paragraphs.

Cheers,

Added MPR OVS in its proper ticket.

Let me know if the format is okay and I will start doing the Box-topper cards.

Please, use the attached template. You can write multiline text in Excel too. Just press Alt+Enter when you edit the cell.

Thanks for the template!
I almost finished adding the cards.

I just have a few questions before I can give you the data:

1 - For the 8ED box toppers (standard and promos) the backs are all different and represent the card's original set. So I am using the set's name for the back.
However, for the 9ED ones, the backs have the card's name and are numbered (more info here).
What should I put as their name?

2 - The 8ED promos come from different places: conventions and championships. So I put them as Convention, Grand Prix and Champs promos.
Is that okay or should I put them together with the other 8ED ovs cards?

3 - What are the CopyrIDs for "™ & © 1993-2003 Wizards of the Coast, Inc." and "™ & © 1993-2005 Wizards of the Coast, Inc."?

1. Whatever you want. I'll think about it and fix if needed.
2. Another thing to think of. May be it's better to create a special set for all box toppers?
3. 8 and 10.

Here's the complete box topper info for 8th and 9th editions. Each is in a different sheet.

For the regular ones, I gave the SetID of their edition. The promos have different IDs.
I think it makes sense for the promos to be given their special set, but that's just my two cents on the issue

I named the backs of the 9th edition as "Back X", where X is their special collector's number (also in the CollNum field). Not very appealing I know...maybe you'll come up with a better name.

Let me know if anything is missing/wrong.
