Report #1006
Skillset: Dramatics Skill: Ikons
 Org: Ebonguard Status: Completed Jan 2013
Furies' Decision:
We will look into solutions 1 and 3. 1 should be fine, 3 may not be viable.
Problem: There are many hundreds of ikons, and beyond that, as you gather them
you get many more duplicates. The various filters for ikons allow you to cut
that list down somewhat, but that's all it does- filter them. The more ikons
you get, the less useful this filter is. If you have 50 Medallions of the
Messiah, for example, no matter -how- you filter you will have those 50
medallions showing up (plus anything else that matches the filter settings).
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: Add in the ability to create your own ikon "lists,"
 up to 5 (at least). You can flag ikons to be in the
 specific groups by ID#. This would let you create a
 list for all of your "gestalt" ikons (if you have
 multiple gestalt formations) to be in one list, so
 you can easily locate them. You could also make a
 list for all of your unique ikons, and any new ikon
 you get you could put in this list (to help out
 collectors).
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #2: In addition, allow you to sort alphabetically,
 because sorting by # is pretty rough.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #3: Another possible idea would be to make it so that it
 has another column for "# of an ikon you own". Thus,
 it would condense all 50 medallions of the messiah
 into one line. You would trade it by ID#, and it
 would reduce one from the counter.

Supported. I would even just be happy with them being sorted alphabetically
(Sol2 without the 'in addition') so that it is at least easier to see what you
have duplicates of.

Supported.

Please, yes to the 3rd solution that would combine multiples so as to more
easily sift through what you have copies of.

I support any endeavor to improve syntax and indexing to enhance readability. By
solution 1, are you suggesting customizable "load outs"? Yes, yes, and yes to
all three solutions.
---[Shuyin on 1/26 @ 20:57 writes]:
Yeah sure, all of them

It would be even cool if there was an IKON DUPLICATES that shows a list of all
duplicate ikons. If someone wanted to only consume or trade duplicates, that
list can be used.
