RE:Sorting by tags is possible...
More specifically, I meant I want the ability to do the following:
0) Start with the full map database 1) Filter: All maps containing tag "UMS" (not the string search for "UMS", which looks at filenames, not tags) 2) Then be able to sort these filtered results by Name, Count, Rating, etc.
Comment: You shouldn't need to make an automated system to determine whether a map is UMS or not. Map tags are better, because:
1) They have the advantage of generalizing to cover many more categories as well as overlapping categories

You shouldn't need to make an automated system to determine whether a map is UMS or not. Map tags are better, because:
1) They have the advantage of generalizing to cover many more categories as well as overlapping categories
and
2) They have worked well in other map databases.
