This one closes on April 1st, but it's not an April fool.

Over the coming weeks we are upgrading our search engine. It's having a triple destructurisation operation and invisible lurking terms enhancements.

The prize will go to the person who finds the MOST VALID PROBLEMS across our WHOLE PRODUCT RANGE in the SEARCH FACILITY.

If you think you should be able to search on "Horror Movies", but nothing comes up, then add it to your list.

If you think people will mis-spell gran turismo, then add that too - but test it first.

Use short lists if possible but multiple posts will count together. i.e. all your posts on this subject will add up and count towards the prize.

Closes 9 am on April 1st, 2001.

I recommend you read the details of our searching process which you can click to from a link at Site Map. Basically we use the start of a word, so a search on "thunder" will find "thunderball". If several words are combined it must find all.

And why not start a similar thread to this one, asking for searches that don't work, in the Special Reserve Site Bugs forum?

I know this competition is now closed, but I have another suggestion for you.

Would it be possible to have a database or something that all failed searches are automatically entered into?

Any common failed searches that come up could then be highlighted, and you could think about making a few changes so that these searches bring people to what they expect to find.
