There was a really badly written query (by me) for the
Top Submitters by Submission Count report which was timing out. A quick rewrite got it returning in 2 seconds rather than the 2-minutes which was causing a timeout. Never use subqueries kids... always join. :-)

Looks like some of my code fell out of date around the Google Maps on the Serial Submission page. That should be fixed now and rolling again. If you were not able to put in a geo location for your submissions in the past few months, you *can* go back and add it by editing your submission (members only, not anonymous submissions)....it will get you one more SerialBot 'quality point' too. Sorry for the interruption, thanks to
Basil L. for letting me know about it!

IPDB Data Updates Page to see, but this recent sync updated about 900 games and included many new games released in the last year.
