It seems like FeedBurner is caching the link before the thread was created for this post. The next time FeedBurner updates, the link should be fixed. I'll look into this issue.

Which feed are you subscribed to? I see the links on http://feeds.feedburner.com..., but not any of the others yet.

This will be an option in the future. I will change it so it goes to the blog by default.

It is dynamic, but the number of comments for the feed is not live (FeedBurner caches the results and updates it at a set interval).

You can only edit posts that no one has replied to yet.

Re: Team Fortress 2 open beta on September 17th – just buy the Orange Box?

Priced alone, TF2 is $30 and Episode 2 is $20. The price does feel like a slap in the face to anyone who already owns HL2 and/or Episode 1. Valve's answer to this is to allow you to give games you already own as gifts.

Yeah my account name is based on my e-mail address too, which is lame since I don't even have the e-mail address anymore.

Re: You can add non-Steam games to the steam game launcher!

It did seem like the game was about to launch before midnight hit in PST, but no one could load the game.

On another note, I just finished playing and it's pretty fun. I think it's a a good idea how they keep real time player stats from Steam Community. When I played CS:S, I used to play in one server which kept my stats, but now the stats go with me.

I had no idea what this meant at first, but it appears if the vote buttons don't appear then the width of the header is narrow.

EDIT: Actually that's not true. This is my own post and I don't see the vote buttons, but it's not narrow. I only see one post with a narrow header, and it's none that you guys can see.

You and your six achievements. You need to stop playing, I only have one :(

Re: What Do You Think About the New Look?

I'm digging the new design, though the index is a bit cluttered with the image at the top of each entry which is something your old layout handled well.

Regarding what Charn mentioned about the page not rendering correctly when you click Comments -- I'm seeing the same thing in Opera and Firefox. I've tracked it down to the DOMtab script hiding elements of an anchored link. Another example: http://geekwhat.com/2007/10... will hide the entire page.

Hi joshwa,

Whoa, that's way awesome! Have you played Bust a Move (it's called Bust a Groove in America)? I loved that game back in the day. I've got to try this.

Hi DDL, I'm sending you an email right now. The option you want to use is "replace all entries with no comments." -- this will allow you to keep your existing comments.

Re: Let users specify container div for plain js integration

Jason — Wed, 31 Oct 2007 07:23:39 -0000

Hi jhherren,

Thanks for taking the time to look around -- this will be documented soon. I've added a variable "disqus_container_id" which you can use to override the default id of "disqus_thread". Hope that helps.

Re: Javascript embedded code with specific urls?

Jason — Wed, 31 Oct 2007 17:27:29 -0000

Hi Ewan,

You can set the "disqus_url" variable to the permalink of the tumblr page. For example:
<script type="text/javascript"> var disqus_url = '<permalink>'; var disqus_title = '<title>'; // optional </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://disqus.com/forums/<your forum url>/embed.js"></script>
