pop report and set registry not linked well

jradke4

anyone else notice that the pop report and the set registry are not linked well. by that i mean that you are not getting the number of cards graded higher any more. unless its just my favre master set.

I think it's all the sets..I'm sure it hassomething to do with coding the new half grades...

My new half grades show as N/A on the Registry, but are showing up on the POP report.

Yeah, it is all the sets. I hope they will correct this soon.

There are a multitude of coding or database errors right now. As of last week - with the new look n feel site - the population report didnt have all of the subs from the first 5 weeks of the year (approximately) - I know this cause I had two subs that no longer had the total numbers appear in the pop report and I had the pop report printed out earlier in the year when it was correct. Dont know if this was corrected because my membership ran out this past saturday and I dont plan on re-upping again until I know I am going to for sure submit my next batch of cards. My guess is that the new look and feel site (and its code) was (is?) pointing to an old snapshot of the database where all the submission results are stored (such as was pointing to a database that had results up to december 30th rather than Feb 01).

Then there are sporadic times when ya cannot access registry pages or specific ones, which means they are probably fixing things on the fly during normal work hours rather than pushing the fixes in at night or in the wee hours of the morning. This happened yesterday. (Just another guess as to why this issue occurred).

Then the third one I have noticed is that in registrys - in the column which usually states how many cards have a better grade then your own - they now ALL read zero - which means there is now a coding error somewhere that is not picking up the number of cards that are graded better than yours for each specific card and then putting this calculated number into this column.

There may be other issues that I myself have not spotted.

All are programming defects or glitches in the system that unfortunately happen in a software system. Leads me to believe that not only was the front-end of the site upgraded-enhanced but also the (backend) code that communicates with the database (the thing that houses all of the PSA results) probably also has went through some modifications (which obviously all of the modifications did not get validated fully through testing).

- And yeah - I am a computer/internet programmer - I live this kind of stuff day in and day out. [But I of course dont have production defects/issues/errors !!! Of course not !!]

my two cents - sorry for being a programming nerd

Huh???

J/K, Welcome aboard and thanks for that tutorial.

Hopefully PSA has everything backed up.
