I just had to copypaste your game wikicode to understand everything. The only thing I would improve are auto colors for common roles/actions. Other than that, it seems very complete and simple to use. Maybe we should create an example page with this format for creating game articles? You know, just copypaste then fill the info from the game. The only templates that aren't quite obvious are plink (as many people don't seem to know how to link to a specific post in the forum) and "thread" in gamebox. | |||

'blockme' template
when you use the {{blockme}} template, can you put it on the User page, rather than the User_talk page?.. the talk page should be reserved for users commenting on why that User should or shouldn't be blocked... thanks for your help w/ the spammers...

- Yay for feedback. First of all it's nice to have a template that saves some pain for creating tables. Here I come:
Good Stuff
- The gamebox speaks by itself, except maybe for "sort", "modtext" and "outcome2", I had to visit the template page to see what they were about
- tplayer is great. I mean, there's no rocket science behind it. Name, Role, Status is simple and very descriptive.
- The rest of the tables are easy to use, with auto links and table headers
Not-so-good stuff
- The colors (tprole and tnchoice). I mean, I'm sure many colors are useful for games with many roles/factions, but I think the basic roles should have auto color (like blue for Townies, Green for cops, etc) and actions (Red for NK, SK, green for Vig, etc) adding colors was the only "difficult" editing, because I had to figure out which variable was associated with X
- I found that tscene needs "rowspan+1", is it an code error or software error?
Suggestions
I just had to copypaste your game wikicode to understand everything. The only thing I would improve are auto colors for common roles/actions. Other than that, it seems very complete and simple to use. Maybe we should create an example page with this format for creating game articles? You know, just copypaste then fill the info from the game. The only templates that aren't quite obvious are plink (as many people don't seem to know how to link to a specific post in the forum) and "thread" in gamebox.
For a first try, is awesome! Keep up the good work! Andycyca||me||What? 18:03, 5 November 2007 (MST)
Wiki admin?
I see you're on here, flagging and reverting spammers a lot... would you feel comfortable with the Admin powers to block/rollback them? I'm confident that you've been around long enough at this point, and it would save others a ton of work. :) -- Mr. Flay 21:32, 20 September 2008 (MDT)
