(the capitalization is messed up at the moment because we wrote** new code last night for the backend and haven't gotten around to fixing it yet.)

* the $ is a current bug in the code to be fixed.

** well, Toby wrote while I watched him and helpfully pointed out the places where he left off semicolons and things like that.

Woo-hoo!

I have worked out more issues with the fantasy title creator and moved the pattern number to the end of the line so the code to capitalize the first word of the title works. I think that marks the end of the behind-the-scenes stuff, and it's now all looking for unsuccessful patterns and words and removing them.

I've removed a couple already--the smushed-together words have been separated, and I took out "Dark" the noun, even though I've seen it used in titles that way, because it usually read as an adjective. I've got "Darkness" in there also, which works just about as well and anyone foolish enough to use this for a real title generator can remove the "-ness" if they wish. XD I've also taken out the most vague time periods (moment, period, etc) because they weren't working in anything I saw.

Getting better!

Removed a few of the more wtf items, added some more patterns, and I think the hit ratio of the title generator is getting better!
