#388 Extra Basic Land IDs not showing

[Cyntalan]

On loading all versions of basic lands into the database, the card number associated to those extra lands no longer appear to be showing up as of Theros.

On further inspection, it appears that the XML file has dropped both the <num> and <artist> values for all of the basic lands in Magic 2015 and Theros at the very least, aside from the original card listed. This would be an issue to fix here if the database is built and maintained by the MA team. Otherwise, it is an issue to pass on to whoever does the maintenance.</artist></num>

I have to look at it. Database is pulled from Gatherer, but there is no API
so I just scraping web site which they change all the time.
You can try to load this info, by multi selecting cards, right click
Load Extra Fields... and select missing fields.

... And make sure you have new version, because there was a fix
related to web site format

Definitely on the newest version (always have it check for updates at startup). On looking at it further, I have found that it is definitely some quirk in the scraping of the website, where it occasionally misses items. When I looked at the full MagicDB, there were a lot of items missing their number and artist. On the upside, I did find that if I touch the items one at a time, allowing them to check the web for the card data, it appears to refresh and pull the data finally, so it may be something timing out on the mass updater, or some other hiccup therein?

I have this running on two different computers in two different locations with two different OSes (one running Win 7 x64, the other running Win XP x86), both having the same issue. I spent the time on one computer refreshing the individual items, and they are different between the two (one computer had a big chunk of Modern Masters missing its data for example, while the other is missing a big chunk of the Premium Deck Series', and not just lands), which led me to wonder if it were a bigger issue.

What version? Sw update was broken on one of the version, so it won't
update any further, you have to reinstall

1.3.1.14 on one, for sure.

EDIT: And 1.3.1.14 for both.
