  • Do not add dump to DoM unless you are going to add it properly+fully and have got as much info off the dumper as you reasonably can.
  • Serials should be separated with a comma and no space
  • HTTP response headers should be attached to the file as a unique attachment.
  • anonomous dumper names like !anon-YYYY-MM-DD-######## can be used to uniquely identify an anonymous dumper, where YYYY-MM-DD is the GMT date the id was generated and ######## is a randomly generated lowercase alphanumeric 8-character string. The same id should be used across multiple dumps by the same anonymous person.
  • If the ROM was dumped as trimmed (dumping tool guesses or checks when the "real" data ends), but then restored from the header field, you can add: [Dumped as trimmed, restored from header] to the comment1 field
  • If the dump date is from the http response header(s) date field, put [Date from HTTP headers] in the comment2 field.
  • If the file sizes are from the http response header(s) length field, put [Sizes from HTTP headers] in the comment2 field.
