I was working on moving cards, and somehow the end of the CL with all the special cards are now inserts. Probably should have been that way to start. So what's going on??

Not sure, but I do think a great wishlist item would be a log of changes to things in the website.  I am not complaining at all, I just think it might be a cool enhancement.  I track my collection on a spreadsheet and try to keep things in line with the database, but if it changes and I don't know, then I could get botched up (it hasn't happened yet, so no biggie).  I do think a change log on pricing would help.  I notice when the value of my collection changes, but I am not sure what cards in it changed.  I think that would be cool, even though I don't rely on the pricing, it would be great to know something changed.

Again, not complaining, just an idea!

Change log for this set is located here:

With that said one of the things I've voiced before is somehow making something more prominent on the main page when a change happens. Much like the New Galleries, Recently Collected or Recently Added (which is for scans right?). I track on a spreadsheet also and there have been numerous times things have changed or been moved and I didn't know until there was a trade proposal or I went to add something in.

Wait, we have a New Feature proposal site now....

I never knew this existed.  Lol, it seems like everytime I think of something, it was here, I just needed to look.

Great info!

I still can't find where any changes verifications were made. BUT the set CL has clearly changed from Sat to Sun . Maybe somebody, anybody can shed some light on this "mystery".

I did send an IR, for somebody to take a look.

OK, now that I read the IR, I understand what the confusion is about.

I'm going to restate it here, just to be sure I'm understanding the issue.

The confusion stems from the fact that the cards that are listed as "Individual Inserts/Promos" are seen when you are "scrolling" (i.e., clicking the Next> button on each card) through a set and reach what is the last card in the base checklist, then next cards seen are the individually listed inserts and/or promos.

Individual Inserts and Promos have no other "Set" to belong to except the base set. They aren't in the "gold" set or the "Super Duper Premium Parallel" or any of those sets. (Yes, I'm making up silly names.) The point is, individual inserts and promos need to belong to a set. Every card needs to belong to a "set" somewhere. If the card is an insert, but there is no insert set for it to belong to, then it needs to belong to the base set (even if it's an "insert").

This is why they are seen when scrolling, because they get appended to the end of the "set" for cataloging purposes. Additionally, when doing Name and Team validations, because they have no other set, the individual Inserts and Promos get validated with the base set. 

Hey Dan, Wasn't sure to reply or PM? Figured somebody else might be interested.

1. Yes, I know, the set up to 800 + everything else, inserts etc were there on Sat. I'm sure because I was going to try and Move SANTA per your directions. I had to stop.

2. I returned on Sun. and found the CL only listed to 800[O & D]. All the inserts and promos etc are now listed in Inserts and Related Sets Only BUT not in the CL.

Much easier for you to look, and see what I'm referring to. No confusion on my part, I understand exactly what you are saying. But the inserts and promos are now Related Sets, NOT in the Base.

So I wanted to know what happened? The set definitely changed from Sat. to Sun. ~Bob~

That I don't know. I didn't do anything in there myself, and I didn't see anything in the change log. I have added a link to this thread in the IR and marked it as Admin Needed. Maybe Admin has an explanation for you.

Thanks for the heads up but if all the cards like loud Denny and Steve young are moved shouldn’t the Barry sanders Hawaii be moved as it was a promo as well

Bob, were you in Add/Update?  When you're doing an Add/Update the single inserts/promos are added to the end of the base checklist. Similar to what Dan said about scrolling through the set card-by-card.  The single inserts/promos are added on to the base set for viewing.  And in this case for collection updating.
