Finding One's Own Game Ads

I was going to post to Wanted - Players an advertisement for a game I run, but when I was editing the post, saw a drop-down to "select one of your NN advertising games" (where NN is given as a number).

I was somewhat surprised to see the game I was about to advertise for in that list, since I thought I had not yet created an ad for it.  I dogged off creating the ad at that point, since rules for that forum state one should only post a single ad topic per game (see rule 5 in the Required Reading).

Is there a simple way to locate one's own game ads in Wanted - Players?

Use the search link at the bottom, you can search by poster.

{Facepalm}  Thanks, Hunter!  I should have spotted that.  Works as (ahem) advertised.

Finding One's Own Game Ads

I've used this site for over fifteen years, and I didn't know that search button was in the lower left until bigbadron pointed it out to me earlier this year.

Finding One's Own Game Ads

for me?.. I bump  my adds  every week ( can enevr have  enough active players!)..any way.. when I reset my computer, I  just go to 'Players wanted"..and  check the pages until I finmd my game.

By best  way ..I have a Link for each game in ma Favs.... I just click on  reportys.. edit as I need and  BONG.. new post...I also   delete older post every so often to keep the posts  at 20-25...They all say the same thing, except   in times  I edit.


 easy to find  either way though!

I make a shortcut to them when I set one up, so I never lose it.

In reply to ShadoPrism (msg # 6):

I'm doing that, too, now.  It took me forever to find my older games, though.  That search tool could have saved me an ocean of time if I'd spotted it earlier.

I build links to my game ads in their scratch pads.
