With searches limited to 25 hits now, it has become more significant to me when search results have responses that don't actually have what I searched for in them and are therefore blank in the results page.

Today is the first time I got 25 hits that were empty when I searched for "Feynman" though.  Something is odd with the search algorythm...

P.S.  The results for that search might change with the generation of this topic and the one I am about to make in the "Other Media" section.

Edit:  Some changes for clarity

Not likely to change by much, I'd guess. I had put a Feynman quote quote in the Bar only a week ago.

This is getting bad.  I just did a search for "Doylist" and narrowed it down to 30 days and just the spoilers section and still got 25 hits without the word doylist in them.

What's the google method if searching within a website since the native one is becoming rather unproductive?

Darn that doesn't return the post I am looking for.  Someone recently used the terms Watsonian vs Doylist and I really like the terminology (and said so in thread) and I want to credit them for the term in my new doylist theory.  But I can't remember who it was.
