Tags for fixing...

Maybe we should decided on some standard how to tag fixed cracks to make them easier to find in a search & to get some consistancy in the database.
I think I've seen the following variations this far:

1) [pal/ntsc]
2) [Pal/Ntsc]
3) [PAL/NTSC]
4) [ntsc/pal]
5) [Ntsc/Pal]
6) [NTSC/PAL]
7) [Fix]
8) [FX]

I personally use & prefer #1

Just saw another one: [pal&ntsc]

Maybe we should all have different ways of tagging the releases to make it really messy & ugly, I'll use {P4l+N75<}

Complications....
"fix" USA term, meaning euro game was ntsc-fixed
"pal-fix", meaning USA game was pal-fixed

geeze was so easy then, no wonder i wouldn't align myself during the Amiga daze.

Hmmm I find it more neat to do it like in the old days.
F = fix

(if it was bug-fixed or pal-fixed or something needing ellaboration, that should be done in the comments field anyway).

While we're at it:

D = Docs
E = Editor Included
F = Fix
H = Hi-score Saver installed
I = IDE64 fixed
R = REU support
T = Translation
100% = When no other cracked version works, if your fixing someone else's crack or fixing an error in your own release
101% = If the first fix still has flaws, this can continue. I recall even seeing 102% and 103% versions before it was finally done right.

Gamename- = Gamename Preview

Over the years things have changed a little, # has been docs but it is also picture file in the directory. M has symbolised mega version but also means trainers that can be used ingame.

I prefer the above system, which has been used for years now, as it looks simple and neat.
