From ff9605923d9fd20f29d2bd19060962401b7756ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Imre Eilertsen Date: Sat, 27 Apr 2024 11:38:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Initial partial handling of #1024 I've got some silly projects on my hands, including painting my still-operational Wii U console green, ever-baffling bewilderment about how surround receiver banana plugs work, and adding an entry for Norwegian to Wikipedia's "Rolling R" page. So doublechecking Wii Sports Club is circa 7th-ish priority, but will be done. --- GameConsoleAdblockList.txt | 13 ++++--------- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/GameConsoleAdblockList.txt b/GameConsoleAdblockList.txt index 46c460192..aa44588b8 100644 --- a/GameConsoleAdblockList.txt +++ b/GameConsoleAdblockList.txt @@ -1,9 +1,10 @@ -[Adblock Plus 3.6] +[Adblock Plus 3.12] !
