Munchkin Big Box and Tang Garden hung 30s each on a "First Page" anchor
that exists but is invisible: BGG renders every paging control twice,
and the First/Prev pair lives only in the mobile set
(<li class="visible-xs-inline">). A desktop viewport can never click it.
Paging now selects the first VISIBLE match, and returning to page 1
closes and reopens the sub-view (which always opens on page 1) instead
of reaching for a control that isn't there. A test proves no hidden
control is ever clicked — the fake picker raises if one is.

Five games uploaded; two landed version-less. Neither was the picker's
fault: paging is an AngularJS <ul class="pagination"> of anchors, not
buttons named "next", so the old guess found no control and quit after
page one — and BGG's API version names carry printing qualifiers the
picker omits ("English edition 2018-2" vs "(English edition) (2018)").
_select_version now scans the WHOLE list (verified selectors: rows are
<li>s with a thumbnail; a[title="Next Page"] advances; the parent <li>
disables at the end), collects every candidate, then decides: one exact
match wins; failing that, one match after stripping a trailing year
qualifier wins and says so; several matches are refused outright rather
than guessed, and the reason reaches upload_log.csv. Both call sites
carry the reason through.
docs/bgg-upload-flow.md records what the live site actually does —
including that every login-gate selector the doc called "verified" was
wrong, while the "unverified" dialog structure was right.

Queue from to_add/to_update minus upload_log.csv (append-per-attempt,
so runs resume); per-game failure isolation with 2-4s pacing;
--dry-run/--verify/--retry-failed/--limit; stub-fixture marker blocks
real runs, dry-run warns. Headed browser by default: live recon showed
Cloudflare Turnstile hard-blocks headless, and BGG never reaches
networkidle. Login selectors verified anonymously; version-picker
pagination and the collection-row update flow remain unverified until
real data exists. Client collection fetches gain a refresh passthrough
so --verify sees the live collection, not cache.
