Errors adding bras

Hey guys, I want to apologize if you tried to add a bra and saw an error page :-/

We've been making some changes in order to support more creative cup sizing, and apparently I missed some scenarios :-/

If you run into another error, the bra might not get added, but I will know about it and fix it. So please try adding it again in a few hours, or maybe tomorrow? :-(

  • I am curious about the more creative cup sizing! I can't imagine what you might mean.

  • Mostly to support Panache new joke sizing mentioned here:
    http://bra.pe/Ao1/

    And also to start allowing bras that are labeled as US: "DDD/F" which is not DDD nor F but a "cup size that has a slash on it" and the site should be able to classify that under the right cup, because the next model by the same brand will be labeled as simply "F" and then other model on the same brand as "DDD" and we need to know they are all the same.

    So the rules to tell what is a cup size need to change, as a cup is not just a sequence of one letter repeated, but it can now have slashes, numbers (Sugarshape and Panache's "10D/M") and many letters, or even spaces! (I haven't gotten to that yet, but Playtex will have cups "nearly B") so when to know that "i am invalid" is actually invalid cup, and "nearly B" is and "almost B" isn't.

    And then that we can compare these sizes between brands (with a huge list of caveats), because what one calls F other call FF and others call H regardless of what country they lie saying they go by.

    At the end, really, really, since day 0 in Bratabase, go by measurements, whatever random text is on the labels is a joke (and then brands changing silently designs is another joke, we're doomed).
