[pbmserv-dev] Bug in the show command - addendum

[Ragnar Wikman IB <rwikman@ra.abo.fi>]

Hi again folks!

Just found out the bug is not in the 'all' part of the 'all show'
command, rather in the 'show' part...

When I give (with multiple)

<game type where ragnar has at least one game active> show

then I get just one game (in doublechess not even the first tournament
AND the first normal game, as I did with 'all show') per game type!

Cheers, Ragnar the puzzled showman

Subject: [pbmserv-dev] Bugs in the nagger + show commands?

Hi folks!

Being one of the slowest players on the server, I rely heavily on the
nagger, but recently I have lost several games due to forfeit because
not being nagged about them (nor did I even receive info that I had lost
the games due to forfeit once it had happened)

Thus I made some tests, and it seems not only the nagger, but the show
command as well, are badly broken?! The 'all show ragnar' only seems to
list my FIRST game in a category (on one occasion, my first normal game
AND my first tournament game) and a similar pattern seems to occur for the
nags (NOT identical, last Friday I received nags for 2 breakthrough games,
but the 'all show' lists just the first one of them) ?!

If this is not a universal problem (it seems not, since some of my opponents
say the 'all show' works correctly for them) a possible place to start the
troubleshooting MIGHT be that I had a game restored (ordinary chess game,
IIRC) after a premature forfeit some months ago, and I don't think the problems
appeared before that?

Cheers, Ragnar
