Default Re: The Hand Converter Thread.

Okay.

Known issues:
4. Multiple history conversions.
This has been discussed before, but I haven't looked into it much. This should be doable, but it's still a low priority.

Ed's original perl script, and my first converter in vbs both were designed for multiple postings. I broke away from that to add in more features to the hand conversion but it's not particularly hard to implement for any one site.

The problem I have, and the main reason I lost interest in the project is that I found using a converter really hurt the development of my game. Writing out hands forced me to think about how they were played and gave me a basis for doing at the table replay in future sessions.

With that being said, a 100 hands style post can be very helpfull to a new player, since it gives reviewers a decent size window to spot problems. It's not perfect but the larger the review set certainly the better the advice can be.
