Name
As in the star, the raccoon genus, or the release group? -- Prod 23:51, 10 October 2006 (CDT)
 * lol, the raccoon genus. If I can't use Procyon, I sometimes use Lotor, or Plotor. ^_^  Procyon 07:58, 11 October 2006 (CDT)

You're just waiting to +b me on IRC the moment I sign in! -- 19:24, 2 September 2007 (CDT)

Thanks Scott!!
You know, this leaves us with a lot more money left over from the monthly Google check. I say we put some of that toward getting us some more traffic! ^_^ echelontalk 03:11, 4 September 2007 (CDT)

SimCity 2000
It appears the Release dates section needs converted to the proper templates, I figured you would enjoy a minor project such as this, so you're more than welcome to jump in head first! :) -- 23:12, 5 September 2007 (CDT)

RE: CP Archiving
LOL sorry didn't realize that had changed I'll not do that any more. -Argash 16:42, 7 September 2007 (CDT)

Art of Fighting
Proc, this one's within your remit for cleanup. :-) -- 18:16, 8 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Sorry to add to this, but I would think Move Lists/SNK/AOF should use your templates as well. The author seems to know what he's doing, so perhaps a little guidance is all he needs.  -- Prod (Talk) 08:57, 9 September 2007 (CDT)
 * No, I understand what he did, and he actually did a nice job. AOF is kind of weird because it has these partial energy meter moves.  It was sort of a failed experiment that wasn't continued in any other SNK game, so it should be fairly unique to AOF. Procyon (Talk) 11:11, 9 September 2007 (CDT)
 * First of all Hi and thanks for the Compliments :) I will really try to help you guys out with the NeoGeo stuff, but I'm writing my Diploma right now (I don't know if that's the correct english word .. it's a very big paper you have to write before you can finish University) and I already took one day off to work on the AOF Movelist .... So I'll really try to work on some stuff when I find the time, but don't get your hopes up too much ...oh, and since this is my first Wikipage: if you have any suggestions or criticism or spelling-errors, just let me know....Bmuig 12:57, 9 September 2007 (CDT)Bmuig(Talk)

Volguard
Hey Proc, why is Volguard II in with Volguard? Was it not released, or something? -- 01:14, 12 September 2007 (CDT)
 * They should at least have separate main pages; the rest of the content is up to you (I've got no idea :-P). -- 11:13, 12 September 2007 (CDT)

Art of Fighting 2
I just uploaded my stuff for Art of Fighting 2, hope everything is OK. I noticed that you changed the category from the Art of Fighting Movepage to A0SArtOfFighting ... I did the same for AOF2, but I don't know what the AOS means :) please explain..

Yes, thesis is the word I was looking for ... I'm a student of Computer Science at the Technical University of Ilmenau ... it's OK, if you don't know where that is :), it's in the middle of Germany...

I think I'll start with the pages for the characters in the next days before I start working on AOF3, so there'll probably be some more questions soon...Bmuig 13:59, 13 September 2007 (CDT)Bmuig(Talk)

ZeldaWiki partnership
Sorry to bring this up, but I really let it get away from me. Remember when we were planning on implementing exchange links on our Zelda guides to ZeldaWiki, etc? Well, they just got back to me on that since I let them down. I'd like to chat with you sometime tomorrow about how we can implement these links in your (and other) Zelda guides, as well as whatever opinions you may have. Thanks. echelontalk 02:14, 14 September 2007 (CDT)

Future games
Just wanted to let you know that I'm working on it ... (I put the AOF3 stuff on hold, it was a rather big pain in the back anyway :. A allready finished Fatal Fury: King of Fighters and I just startet World Heroes. So you can expect some progress during one of the next days...--Bmuig 17:15, 15 September 2007 (CDT)(Talk)


 * Well, first of all: thank you very much for doing the character pages, things are really starting to look good :) .. But there are some things that came up:

..--Bmuig 17:15, 15 September 2007 (CDT)(Talk)
 * 1) I noticed that all my pages are still at completion Stage 0, shouldn't they be at stage 1 if they have the basic move List? I read about the stages at the comunity page but I still couldn't figure out the exact way to change them
 * 2) This is just a thought: all the moves on the character pages are copy & paste right now, right? Won't that get us into trouble in the future when somebody changes some mistake at the normal page of the game and then we have two different versions of the moves? Isn't there some way to link from the page of the game to the Character page, so that have only on Version and all changes done to that version change all the linked Versons, too? (As I said it's only a thought ... I really don't know if the Wiki-Framework is capable of such things ... but since it works in Templates there should be some way...)
 * 3) This is more on a private level :) : I saw on your page that you were (and hopefully still are) working in the games industry. As I told you before, I working on my thesis right now. The thesis is about implementing a test environment for AI-Agents of turn-based strategy games (which I have done allready and which is working very fine) and the implementation of two different AI-Agents for that environment (priority based, which I'm working on right now and which is a big pain and Finite-State-Machine based, which I haven't even started yet). So thing is, that I'd like to do a chapter about the "state of the industry", how that whole AI stuff is handeled in development totay and which Systems are used mostly ... So I'm looking for somebody from a games company to answer some (very basic, nothing really specific) Questions about how they handle AI...Maybe you happen to know something about AI Development or know somebody that I could write an Email to? (Oh, in don't feel bad if not .. I used to work at a Games-Company here in Germany, so I allready got some answers, just figured: the more the better) ... As I said before, this is completely not StrategyWiki related, but I just had to ask :)

JoJo's stuff
Thanks for helping out, man. Yeah, I didn't really know what you were talking about at first, but I dig you now. Also sorry for responding slow, I'm kinda new at this whole thing. So if you wanna get Jotaro and Joseph's pages transferred, I'll write the rest of them in that same format. --Tape 13:55, 16 September 2007 (CDT)
