Yeah, Blast is such a generic and bland name. Most important part of programming is totally the naming stage.

Why don't you rename it Blast Furnace?
I named it after that, but just Blast is easier to type and won't abbreviate. Also I didn't want to have the name contain any D's or F's (too many DF utilities start with DF). But since I haven't released it yet, I'm still open for naming suggestions.

I think Magma's reasons are valid, too.

In my opinion Furnace sounds better than Blast, if you only want to have one word.

I'm gonna throw my vote in for Blast Furnace.

Or Smelter. (the point is to throw in, use, and combine a lot of different mods easily, right?)

Foremost it's a toolkit to write and combine combinable mods, but it can also be used to create standalone mods more easily.

As for the name, I'm currently swaying between Blast, Smelter and Cauldron, but those are all kinda medium awesome, so if anyone comes up with something better pertaining to mixing, I'll probably take that.

I kinda fail to see the connection between the purpose of this utility and the profession of jewelery. Enlighten me?

There is a little thing that people ALWAYS get wrong when designing a website.
Although your solution is more logical from a caching perspective, it's not wrong to do it in the way people expect it to work.
From the user perspective the primary difference between my method and the method that developers normally use is that my method produces  a most recent page that may contain less than a full page of items.

How big a deal is that? if seeing a small list of recent items is bad for the user, I can fairly easily add a second full page if the most recent page was less than half full.

Jewelers encrust gems in little pieces of bent up metal.
[Tool name here] encrusts mods in little pieces of DF.

The same reason Ruby (the language) has Gems (libraries).
