Creating custom URLs with TYPO3, RealURL and tt_news

Im still not understanding very well how the configuration of RealURL works. So far Im getting my news with this format:

http://www.mysite.com/games/detail/date/2012/01/01/game-1/

But Id like it to be able to customize the URL as I want, like:

http://www.mysite.com/games/WhateverIwanthere/

I have a page with the LIST view (id=3) and a child page with the SINGLE view (id=13)

This is my realurl_autoconf.php: http://pastebin.com/31s9uZDb

Solution
    1. Get rid date params from your tt_news links see tt_news docs and find Settings for Links section
    2. Put LIST view and SINGLE view on the same page and switch the views with TypoScript (there are snippets in the net so I don't writ it here)
    3. Use fixedPostVars of RealURL to avoid redundant 'detail' word

    With this scenario you'll be able to display:

    http://domain.tld/games/ - LIST view

    http://domain.tld/games/one-two-three/ - SINGLE view of One Two Three game
