Search results point to www.indiegamescon.com and return a 404

Hi,

while searching for stuff using the search function i actually do find something but i cant click on the link to get there.

for example typing in "Marble Blast Ultra" will give me a result site with a plan "Marble Blast Ultra... Finally Complete" on the very top. however the link below says: www.indiegamescon.com/blogs/5263/9636 .
This plan is of course not on the indiegamescon website so it will give me a 404 error when i click on it.

this seems to be the case for all items that are stored on www.garagegames.com. stuff on tdn.garagegames.com seems not to be affected.

They have been working with Google to fix it. It has been all over the boards in the last week or so--but of course, you can't search for it.

If you replace indiegamescon with garagegames, you'll get to the right place until it gets sorted out.

Still seems to be a problem though not as severe

Result:

indiegamescon.com/mg/snapshot/view.php?qid=951

Removing indiegamescon and substituting garagegames:

garagegames.com/mg/snapshot/view.php?qid=951

Looks like you're right, we'll take a look. As you said, most links are fixed.
