@humpaaa, so what was going wrong on your side? :^^;:

The bundles URL should be visible. Maybe another tab for bundles? I am sure new users will miss this one out.
I agree. Maybe not an extra tab, though, I don't know. I'll think about it.

NEW: Game pages now show you the number of completed trades, and a link to trades that involved you. (Just like on Barter of course ;))

What surprises me is that you say it's working on your server, since its traffic originates from the same sub-network as my own IP does...
That's exactly why I did that specific test :P Maybe domestic users and dedicated servers have different routes. Does it work now?

Regarding wishlists, I will try to remember to check if a game is removed from the wishlist once you complete a trade for it but I guess it isn't (wasn't?) working because I still have "Adventure Time: The Secret Of The Nameless Kingdom" and "The Detail Episode 2 - From The Ashes" on my wishlist despite having traded them with you. I haven't added them to my library yet, so it would only affect removing the games when completing a trade. At least not when they're found in your Steam library, or removed from your Steam wishlist, which is not done right now if I understood you correctly:

Anyway, no, I'm not planning to have library syncing with Steam influence wishlist removal.
So the only way to remove a item you own from the wishlist will be by completing a trade for it or manually removing it from the wishlist? :hmm: Those are a couple of things I don't like right now:

1. Tradable is removed when completing a trade. I mean, quantity is diminished by one, but since you can't edit the tradables right now, you can't modify the quantities. I usually don't keep track of the number of keys I own for a game, so I'd rather have the option to remove items at the completion of a trade (like Barter does) instead. As we discussed, this can be easily fixed/cheated by setting all your tradables to x99, for example (when quantities will be modifiable). However, I can see how this would work in the long term if a system to store your own Steam keys on Lestrades is added, since adding your keys here would let you know how many copies you have for it. But as I said, that's something I would expect in the long run...

2. Adding a game to your Steam library won't automatically remove it from your wishlist. I'd rather have it removed (unless it's tagged as "+extra"), otherwise you have to remember to remove games you buy/activate on Steam (not from a trade) yourself. The idea of a warning is not bad, but it's a bit redundant when the logical thing to do is to remove a game from the wishlist if the system finds out you own it (again, unless the game is tagged as "+extra").

NEW: bundle pages now indicate whether you own a game or not.

My vote is for adding it on the top, between "My Messages" and the language selection dropdown (since it's going to be an important section of the site, once it's running full speed I'm guessing it's something that will be heavily used) or just behind, where the "Home / Profile / Members" menu is.

If it's added to the top, it might be neat to also add a counter to notify you how many new bundles have been added since your last visit/check of the bundles page (just an idea, not a priority).

FIX: Well.......... Lestrade's is back online, obviously. :P

Much thanks to Alex for acting like a child and killing it without warning.
Much REAL thanks to devotee for stepping up (despite our common frustrations two months ago) and hosting Lestrades.com again, like he used to! There are still bugs to fix, but I'll get there.

NEW: Well....... Given that devotee has a better server, matching speeds are now through the roof. We're talking about 6 to 10 times faster. This is what I developed the site with. This is what excited me so much. The site feels so much faster and more responsive. I hope you all enjoy it.

(Note: this is from the point of view of someone who actually lives about 10km away from the server itself. So not only that, but my FTP access is now instantaneous and I can develop much faster.)

My real wishlist is on steam.
My wishlist here is for trading purposes.
I like to trade for games I do not own based on Want/Have Ratio, rather than other approaches.

Yeah, he's been working all evening to help me move my other sites as well.
I don't want to impose so maybe I won't settle on this server, but I'm really glad I made the move. Alex's server was really too slow, even after the upgrade.
I'm tiring, I'm off to bed. Happy trading guys ;)
I'll resume development tomorrow, if all goes well.

After barter returned, how will syncing be done now? 
For example, a added ~2000 titles to my blacklist at barter yesterday. Can i easily sync the list here, or would i need to manage both lists individually, since you separated from barter data?

Just reload the page if it doesn't work. If you kept a tab open for too long the session might have regenerated and some actions won't work without a page reload.

Yeah, I dunno why there's a session check for search. I probably should remove it. It's a remnant from the original purpose of that search box.
