Nice work, Trevor! A much cleaner and more complete page. What would the piecepack community do without you? :)

What do you think about adding ppwicker to the server and automating it?

Thanks! I thought about automating it further but probably not worth the time to do it. The easiest path would be a `crontab` which would spam the RSS feed at regular interval... I did make a note in the shared Google Docs on how you (or another admin) could run it if you ever feel the need to so. Basically open R and make a single function call... Nice thing about this is I don't have to figure out which games need to be added to the list if I do forget to update for a little while -- it will add all of the missing games' data next time I run it!

@Ottia , as noted at the top the Games page it is periodically generated by a computer program from each game's metadata from their individual wiki page (the admins found manually keeping it up to date too much of a pain). To make this change stick someone would need to update the required equipment in each individual game page's metadata otherwise it'll get reverted the next time we re-generate this page. Although I usually write "one standard piecepack" myself many games need "one piecepack" but it doesn't necessarily need to be the "standard" suits...

The best thing then is to re-generate the page, if I have the time I will then start changing the metadata at least in the games I am reviewing.
