Automation

Well, I have begun moving towards automated game importing from various sites with Playpile. I've generalized it enough that I only need to write a small amount of code to parse whatever kind of file they use to represent the data on their games.

It won't be too hard to add a couple thousand games at this point. I think I may distinguish between games that are added in an automated way versus manually. I should probably keep games added automatically separate from ones added manually, because I doubt game sites would like it if their content is used to promote games at other sites. This is just until I can integrate those games into the main listing and ditch the description and image supplied by the game site.
