Two important bits of news today.
First off, the search bug has been fixed (a server update was the cause of all those problems). I'm sorry it has taken this long, but thanks to my friend Toke for assisting.

Secondly, and even more worthy of celebration - we've crossed the 10,000 mark. Yes, CASA now officially contains info on more than 10,000 text adventures. Which is a number far beyond anything I'd ever imagined - and six months shy of our 25th anniversary, even (which we'll talk about in due course). That's games enough to cover the needs of even the most industrious players.

Site bug: I'm sorry that the year's first update is about a bug, but there it is. There's an error in the search function which causes search strings with multiple words (e.g. Zork II) to fail.
Workaround: put a + between the search words - Zork+II will function.
It's not ideal, but it works. I'll get the search function fixed a.s.a.p.
