Is there an easier way to create an accolade wherein I choose the films from a personal list other than to add them one at a time? (Hope that made sense)

Okay, let me try to explain What I mean. For example when I've made accolades before, I've narrowed it to the films of a given actor (or it could be a word in a title). That's fairly easy.

I am wanting to make an accolade of some of my favorite films. Since they don't neccessarily have anything in common other than I like them, I can't see a logical way to choose them except to make the accolade with one film, then go back to edit and add another film.

I don't think there is a shortcut in this case. You just have to keep changing what's in the 'search' box.

That's kind of what I figured, ah well. Thanks ChocolateLady!

You are welcome. It would be nice if we could add films by typing in their genres. That would have made my Western Comedy accolade much easier to do.

Really! Especially since there are now 922 films listed under that genre on the site now!

I'm pretty sure that studies have shown that a steady diet of Documentaries are hazardous to your health....

I've found it's not so tricky and can be quite quick if you know what you're adding. With the search box open in front of the accolade screen you can keep on adding as fast as you can type in the title and pick it. There used to be the flagging method on the old accolade construction. I don't tend to flag any films at all any more now that you can't access your flagged films in the accolade wizard. Maybe that could be implemented though? One for Benj perhaps.

925 now and I have started to update the accolade, sorry Randall

I will come over and give you a few apologetic votes

Yes, I would find this a big help too.

Oh, Josh, you've ruined me. From one away to 80 away! [I'm just kidding...a documentary accolade is well worthy of chasing.]

But I have to abandon my quest for the Dilemma now...I'm on the way to another multi-month accolade, and will just have to pick up the pieces after that.

But I was once just one film away, dammit!

P.S.: You owe me some votes, mate!

P.P.S.: And you might want to re-order your "Accolades Completed" list...

I may have missed something, what exactley do you mean?

Am I being thick? (probably)
If you mean this the lists were created by Salopian but I have been and corrected the error.

And for the rest of you I will attempt to work out how to add you to the lists in the near future.
