That's because I run a large number of filters on every game to ensure that there are no mistakes in it. Only a little over half of the games are currently on my ftp site, and I doubt I will post the updates even within the next few months. I will be doing a big update to the EPD part of the site after our IBM mainframe arrives at the end of this month. I currently keep the EPD database in SQL server on the machine I am typing this message from. However, now that I have about 30 gigs of data, this machine simply won't do. So I am going to store the information on DB2 on the IBM big iron.
