Darth Lego Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 What's the word bird? Do we have an ETA yet? I believe it is May 1st, but I'm not 100% sure. Quote
Jeff Mack Posted April 20, 2013 Author Posted April 20, 2013 It will probably go past May 1st. I can only work on so many projects at once and the past week or so has been dedicated to getting this new data live. Quote

You and Ed have already done so much for this site over the past year or two. A couple years ago I never would have imagined a site this amazing and helpful. Quote

You guys have put a lot of hard work into this site over the last couple of years. I know us members really appreciate it. Quote

Ed Mack Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 We finished up the new review section today and the new contest will be released shortly, with the new data soon as well. We have both been very busy at work. Once the new UK and Australia feeds go live and the contest is announced, Jeff will finish up the Brick Classifieds. We also have another huge site improvement underway as well. Big time surprise... Quote

mikeur86 Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Hahahah thanks guys! I used to love reviewing movies and I did a couple of reviews over at blu-ray.com. But Lego's are much better to review! Though sometimes I will have my son's lego set right next to the computer looking it over intensely as my wife glares at me in the background. Quote

A side note - my wife keeps giving me weird looks too. good job man! hahaha I think the same thing myself every time new reviews are approved. It seems like for every review I write he already has done 5 lol. Great job! not only you are producing a lot of reviews, but all of them are very high quality as well, keep it up! Quote
Jeff Mack Posted May 12, 2013 Author Posted May 12, 2013 Just a quick update: Ed and I wanted to get the set reviews system updated and get the contest launched. That is done for now and has been a great success. I am currently working price guide data for the new month (April 2013), this next update will include the regions for UK, EU, and Australia. Data is crunching now and I just have a little more design work on the page. Updates to the forum are happening too, but that is not all in my hands. Over the next few days, these projects should be done which will then put me back in the drivers seat for the classifieds. It was close to done when I cut over to these, so it won't be much longer.

A lot of stuff going on behind the scenes. Quote
TheDarkness Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Really can't wait to see these changes and the international data. Thanks for everything! Quote
Seifer Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Soooo 2 months have passed without any news on the classifieds... I'm guessing that Ed and Jeff are enjoying the sea somewhere haha But seriously guys, when can we expect the classifieds? Quote

I'm guessing that Ed and Jeff are enjoying the sea somewhere haha But seriously guys, when can we expect the classifieds? Development of the classifieds was put on hold for a while when converting to the new forums and adding other things to the site. Once the forums were in place we tried having some people help out but that didn't work out so I went back to the original plan, but working in changes for paying for listings with Brickpoints. I have also been very busy with my normal 9-5. Like I told some people in the chat room the other night, programming for 10+ hours for work, then trying to put in x number of hours on this at night doesn't do much for the brain I am trying my best. I have said it before, there is a large chunk done, at this point its just a lot of polish and clean up. Quote
LowestFormOfWit Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 My goodness. Take your time. I can't beleive you even have to make an excuse over this. This site is obviously a project and passion away from normal work, as is LEGO investing for most of us. As far as I am concerned, if you're not directly contributing to the work involved in updating and maintaining this site, you need to hold your tongue about how long new features take. Sorry if that comes off harsh to anyone, but demands or impatience made from the peanut gallery really, really get under my skin. 4 Quote
