Forum Search Tips Close

Basics

  1. Search syntax is similar to Google searches.
  2. Words shorter than 4 characters are ignored.
  3. Searches are NOT case-sensitive.
  4. Automatic 'and' queries: The search will only return pages that include all of your search terms.
  5. Only the body of the post is searched by default. Use the Advanced search to also search by subject.
  6. Word variation/stemming is currently not supported. For example, if you search for acting or acted, the search will not return results for act.

Phrase Searches

Sometimes you'll only want results that include an exact phrase. In this case, simply put quotation marks around your search terms. E.g. "cool video games"

Negative Terms

If your search term has more than one meaning (bass, for example, could refer to fishing or music) you can focus your search by putting a minus sign ("-") in front of words related to the meaning you want to avoid. For example, here's how you'd find pages about bass-heavy lakes, but not bass-heavy music: bass -music

    Hey Tammy :)

    In Alanna: The First Adventure, George mentions that Gary won a bet that involved kissing Lady Roxanne (along the lines of "I'd kiss a sweeter armful, myself" or something) - what exactly was wrong with Lady Roxanne? Was she horribly ugly or rude or something? Did she end up marrying anyone? And was she Neal's mother's younger or older sister?

    Thanks!

    Kat,

    Was she horribly ugly or rude or something? Did she end up marrying anyone? And was she Neal's mother's younger or older sister?

    She was bony and plain.  The sharp cheekbones, wide mouth, and pointy chin that make Neal's face so interesting doesn't work so well on someone with thin lips and sallow skin.  However, she did have a substantial dowry as the oldest daughter, and made herself a decent marriage in 441 with--brace yourself--Lord Martin of Meron.  And yes, they have five children, two sons and three daughters, but no, I don't know their names!Wink (yet)

    Sorry I'm being so dim, Mrs. Pierce, but where do you put updates about the lives of the people in Tortall?

    Thanks so much,
    Kate ♥
