Hi! I check this page daily, so feel free to ask me about anything, put in a request for a section, or anything else using the "+" tab on the tab strip.

Hi
Oh, thanks for telling me, I really have no idea what I'm doing, I just look at a pages format, keep it like that, and add information.

The name in itself is a little discouraging. This won't completely kill the server or murder it in some other resource-intensive way, will it? Will we have the power to moderate its usage?--Dan 21:37, 30 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Well, it's been enabled. Enjoy.--Dan 19:52, 1 May 2007 (CDT)
 * :( It doesn't work, I thought the ":R" in the Meta page meant add a title here but it actually took 1,000 and made it 1000, this means we can't do the count unless there's a way to make the PAGESINNS go into cats. P.S how do you get cplimit to work in the query.php, every time I try it with a cat, it comes out blank e.g here.Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 10:14, 2 May 2007 (CDT)

What do you want me to do with this, do you want me to reformat it because it's a jpg and I don't think that you can add transparency to those?--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 13:46, 16 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I'll do it, I have a program that can format it as .png and add transparency. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 19:04, 16 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Done, I'll start on the rest of the pages in the transparency category now. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 21:49, 16 May 2007 (CDT)

Cedricong900
Can I tweak the block to stop account creation, it's only for 1 day and I want to check something out.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 10:18, 17 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I was giving the account the benefit of the doubt by not blocking account creation, IP address, etc. Because I really don't know 100% that Cedricong900 is the same person as Cedricong, I left it open for that person to create a non-Cedricong named account (as you can see on User talk:Cedricong900). If, in that one day, the person was truly legitimate and just picked a bad name and coincidentally started adding stuff to MapleStory (which I don't think was entirely vandalism, just didn't follow formatting and guidelines) and tried to create another account that got autoblocked, that would discourage a potential good editor. If you truly wish to experiment, create another account yourself, block it w/ account creation blocked (highly suggest you don't block the IP though :P), and test it out (you can always unblock later--even if your IP is blocked, too (I think, don't quote me on that), it won't block Rocky, so it should be fine). If another account with Cedricong in it is created by the time Echelon gets CheckUser running, I'll (or someone else will) be able to verify for sure if they are in fact the same person. (sorry for the incredibly long response). --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 15:08, 17 May 2007 (CDT)

What did I do?
You (somewhat rudely) asked me to look at the Strategy Wiki Guidelines. But what did I do? The only thing I can think of is adding my name to a guide, when you're not supposed to. Can you please tell me what I did wrong? Confused, Myth 21:40, 17 May 2007 (CDT)

Thanks
Thank you for the helpful advice. And you're forgiven. I really didn't know what I was doing, and I didn't want to make mistakes. And frankly, the Strategy Wiki introduction article really isn't that helpful; I didn't know until you told me how to indent, start a numbered list, or start a new paragraph. Also, if you corrected my walkthrough for Kollin and my items list, it's much appreciated. I thought I'd have to delete my Kollin Walkthrough because it wasn't in th right format. Thanks again, Myth 22:07, 17 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Content usually never gets deleted unless it is a copyright violation or obvious vandalism (and then it is usually reverted, not deleted). Also, the meat of the introductory article is in the subpages, not the first page. If you check out Guide/Table of Contents, you can see what it all has to offer. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 22:11, 17 May 2007 (CDT)

submit content?
I have a question. Is it okay if I submit content to any of you so you can post it correctly for me? That's what someone mentioned me to do on my talk page, and I was just wondering if that would be something you could do easily and relatively quickly. Thanks,Myth 11:29, 18 May 2007 (CDT)

Completed a walkthrough
Hello, Ryan! I am happy to anounce that I have completed the Kollin walkthrough, and I would like you to look it over. It would be much appreciated. Sincerely,Myth 12:08, 19 May 2007 (CDT)

Buttons
Thanks for the advice and any help'd be appreciated. Thanks--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 13:57, 19 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I found the images online, so I'll jump to that. Also, you should seriously get GiMP, it rocks (I use it :P) --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 13:59, 19 May 2007 (CDT)
 * No need really, I've got Fireworks (It's good but feature overload at the moment).

P.S Cedricong's IP had already been blocked at 18:21 on the 10th of May (see log) so he may come back. If I remember the block was only for a day on his IP and it doesn't give it away, it was #119 in the block log (I think). If you want to test out blocking then block me (Sysops can unblock themselves, see here).Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 14:58, 19 May 2007 (CDT)


 * I've bolded the A button it a bit, is it OK?Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 15:02, 19 May 2007 (CDT)

The button looks fine, but I wasn't testing out blocking, I was trying to block his IP address (I thought that you didn't, but I guess you did). I really hope Ech gets CheckUser up, because I have a feeling Cedricong is using a dynamic IP (one that changes within a certain range every time it connects to the internet), so I'd love to do an IP range block, just have to know the IPs first. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 15:04, 19 May 2007 (CDT)

N64 buttons
Hi Ryan. Just for the time being, I propose that we recycle the SNES Dpad button (and the four Dpad directions), the SNES L and R shoulder burrons, and the Wii Nunchuck analog stick. That would leave only the Z button, which I could possible create by modifying the Wii-mote B button. I think the more consistent we are with the look of the controls, the better, so why not borrow from ourselves whenever we can. What do you think? Procyon (Talk) 20:06, 19 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Sounds good, but check out my image of the Z button to see if it looks good (if it doesn't, sure, use the modified Wii B) (And the Wii nunchuk analog stick was borrowed from the gamecube analog stick, btw :P) --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 21:14, 19 May 2007 (CDT)
 * The indentation of the "Z" needs to be made more apparent, but my skills stop directly before that line. I found the Z to be the most visible at about 400% zoom, if that helps. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 21:34, 19 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Hi Ryan. I did the best that I could, but lacking a usable photograph of how the light bounces off the surface of the Z button, I had to eyeball it and fake it on my own, and I'm no graphic artist...  Feel free to play around with it.  Procyon (Talk) 16:17, 22 May 2007 (CDT)

Deletion of second note
Why is my second note about the list of items in Spectrobes/Kollin deleted? Can you tell me why it was deleted? You said you didn't delete things unless they were obvious vandalism. And that was totally not vandalism on my part. Sincerely, Myth 20:48, 19 May 2007 (CDT)
 * It really wasn't a good spot to include a link to the items list right there, as it doesn't pertain very much to the walkthrough (plus the items list is a bit lacking at the moment). Also, people can easily pop open the ToC nestled in the All Game Nav and go to it via that route (provided, of course, they figure out that the ToC is in the All Game Nav). If you really feel that the link should be there, add it back. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 21:14, 19 May 2007 (CDT)

review of Genshi?
Hi, Ryan! I am currently working on the Genshi strategy guide, and though it is a bit incomplete I would appreciate it very much. Sincerely, Myth 21:40, 19 May 2007 (CDT)

Finished, not complete
I would like to clear up the point I made earlier about the completion of the Spectrobes/Kollin article. I really shouldn't have said complete, but it is most certainly finished. The boss strategy is finished, the walkthrough is finished, and as far as sidequests, if you've played Spectrobes, it is very straight forward. You rarely have to visit the same area of a planet twice, as a matter of fact. And as far as screenshots, I would greatly appreciate it if someone would tell me how you do that. Sincerely, Myth 19:17, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

Thanks for the tip on screenshots!
Thank you very much for the instructions on how to format screenshots! It is very helpful and I hope to be able to get some screenshots on the Spectrobes/Kollin page, as well as any other Spectrobes page I'm working on!! Thanks again, Myth 23:35, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

No offense, but please stick to "your" guides (as in ones you've written). I'm running a spell check and a few other "cleanup" things at the same time. -- Prod (Talk) 16:10, 27 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Sorry, didn't seem that you were working on MapleStory at the time (and the only reason I don't contribute to MS is because everything that I would write has already been written). --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 16:12, 27 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Heh, it's gotten to the point that I do more for other guides now :P. And there are quite a few spelling mistakes throughout, this gives me a chance to essentially spell check the whole of strategywiki :) (or at least common stuff). -- Prod (Talk) 16:17, 27 May 2007 (CDT)

How to play discussion
Hi Ryan. The tests in the Sandbox look really cool. But I don't want to come along and suddenly force a change on everybody. I want there to be a consensus if enough people actually agree with me. I know that, for one, Prod doesn't entirely feel the way that I do, so if I'm in the minority, then it's best not to change it, and like people have been saying, my guides are usually so small and contained that it doesn't hurt that much if they differ a bit. This all started because I wanted to bring the guides that I started more in line with the rest of the site, you know? That's funny for me to say cuz I'm usually such a non-conformist! ^_^ Boy I really need to clean up my talk page :P Procyon (Talk) 15:42, 29 May 2007 (CDT)

Mario's Picross images
Sure, I will rename the existing images and start uploading any new ones with the game's full name instead. To rename images, all I need to do is reupload under the new name and then mark the old image for deletion, right? Or is using the Rename template preferred? Thanks! --Deasean 23:12, 29 May 2007 (CDT)

Guide of the Month
Hey this is just an apology about what I said in reply to your comments about the CoD2 guide in the Guide of the Month page. I was wrong to backlash like that and I hope you accept the apology. I was being a bit unfair and geezy and it was a late night - although thats no excuse for my behaviour.

Most guides I have seen (mainly ones on Gamefaqs) don't use the neutral point of view and are mostly large chunks of text, so I kind of made the pages to look like them, not knowing that you don't do that on StrategyWiki. Sorry again. Poiuytre 04:49, 30 May 2007 (CDT)

Route 225 placement
It is very hard to decide where to place Route 225, and here's why: the Fight ARea, the Survival area, and the Resort Area, they all lead in a circle. So therefore, you can either go from the Fight area, through the Resort Area and a bunch of other Routes, or you can take Route 225 in a backwards circle. Therefore it is between the Fight Area and the Survival Area, just backwards. Any idea on how to fix it? --Myth 20:04, 6 June 2007 (CDT)


 * I just placed it in front of Route 227, as that is the only place that really makes sense. --Myth 20:08, 6 June 2007 (CDT)
 * If you say so ;) Also, you don't need to hit enter/return twice when starting an indented line, it knows to start a new one. --SkizzerzTalk - Contribs 20:10, 6 June 2007 (CDT)
 * You might want to check out the |customnext parameter (similar to it's usage on MapleStory). That way you can have two options of where to go next (there's a similar |customprev). -- Prod (Talk) 20:29, 6 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I know about the customs >.< I just don't know what the game map looks like. Pass the message onto Myth, I'm sure he'd be able to work something out with it (I'm guessing customs would lead to the Areas, but then again, I don't know the map). --SkizzerzTalk - Contribs 20:33, 6 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I know you know :P (and I think you know I know you know...and if you didn't know, you now know). Anywayz, you answered here, so I followed suit :).  I'll tell him to look here. -- Prod (Talk) 20:36, 6 June 2007 (CDT)
 * The footer nav isn't so much the problem. It's the placement in the Table of Contents. I told you I put after Route 227, but that would lead you to believe that you have to go through Route 225 also before you can head to Mount Stark, which isn't true. But Route 227 does lead into Route 225. >__< What to do????!!!! --Myth 11:38, 7 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Sorry for butting in but why don't you link to route 255, and the other areas from a disambig page, linked to from all 4 or 3 names in the TOC, explain why you did that on the page. Just my thoughts.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 11:57, 7 June 2007 (CDT)
 * OK, honestly, this is getting a little silly. Pokemon D/P is not the only game that has multiple branches in a walkthrough, there's nothing requiring this walkthrough to be linear.  Myth, you are free to place Route 225 in the most logical place that you can think of.  If two or more sections should come after it, that's fine, say so in the text of the walkthrough.  Your Footer_Nav should point to the next page as it occurs in the TOC, but if the user doesn't want to go where the Footer_Nav leads, they are free to expand the Nav and click on any link in the TOC that they would like.  Better yet, when you mention what areas you can proceed to from a certain point in the walkthrough, just link to them, so the reader can click on the one that interests him.  Just look at how I handled the last paragraph in Pokémon Red and Blue/Silph Company. Procyon (Talk) 12:12, 7 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I looked at what you did there, and I took the idea and put it into Route 225. So, the subject is FINALLY CLOSED! Hooray! Myth 14:27, 7 June 2007 (CDT)

Notice About My Recent Upload
I have uploaded that template for special use in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! in the items section I just submitted to indicate items can be thrown forward or backward. I have done this to decrease the time it takes to finish it. If you dissagree about my image, point me to another one that will work for it just as well. Superpowered Mario 15:33, 7 June 2007 (CDT)

MTG SW Cards
I saw your example on Echelon's page, I'm really excited... I want one! What are your plans for this? --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 17:10, 11 June 2007 (CDT)


 * Cost: 2 colorless, 4 of whatever color the StrategyWiki card's color is (white?)
 * Color: Same as StrategyWiki card
 * Image: When an appropriate one is found, use it. I'd like to see what others could find ahaha.
 * Ability: Tap, reviews Chrono Trigger information. Pay 2 colorless, tap, adds a major contribution.  Power and toughness is equal to the number of edits divided by 2000, rounded down, and plus one.
 * Flavor Text: (Is this the part in the middle or the commentary at the bottom?) Part in the middle: Creature - Wiki Editor
 * Power/Toughness: 1*/1*

Make sure it's all editable later, I gotta wait for a good quote for the bottom commentary =)

Re: Pokémon R/S/E Gym Leaders

Magic Cards
look here for some WP cards, Wheel war, collab, we need cleanup definitely and I think Ech should be entitled to a shiny limited edition card.--14:22, 12 June 2007 (CDT)
 * That's actually where I got the idea from after I was "awarded" Jimbo's card on the Magic: The Gathering Wikia. As for the cards, though, collab will need an image, wheel war could use some alternate art (I'm not one for copying wholesale), and I don't see one for cleanup, so that'll need an image as well. As for the shiny card, I'm still working on the animation :P. --SkizzerzTalk - Contribs 15:04, 12 June 2007 (CDT)

 * I've started uploading test cards here (or will start soon). As for the info, please explain what you are referring to. I put together those steps in a haphazard order, and I'll need to know what item, not what number, you are talking about. Also, I try to make the cost match the color (as you'll see in the examples). --SkizzerzTalk - Contribs 16:06, 12 June 2007 (CDT)

 * Sorry if this isn't what you want but Here are the 2:


 * 1) Renames all images which gives all the players' creatures a morale boost of (You choose stats) for 7 turns, any image cards with enchantments for the player will have a 1.5x stat boost
 * 2) Rocky goes on a deletion rampage which removes one 2 enchantment cards from play.
 * 3) Rocky gets out his Vandal Whacking Stick™, remove 2 Power from one Creature on the Play field

 * I had to modify the ability a bit, so it now reads:

As long as you control an Image, Creatures you control get +1/+1. At end of turn, each player destroys all Images they control but do not own. W, T: Gain control of target Image. B, T: Destroy two target Enchantments.
 * Is that OK? Also, I decided to make a Cedricong Card too. (Oh, and the Vandal Whacking Stick gets its own card, thanks for the name). -- 12:51, 13 June 2007 (CDT)

 * Yea, that talk page thing is kinda weird, and I was somewhat against it initially (looks bad, more work, etc.) However, it apparently reduced server load noticeably. Personally I'm a bit wary of this hidden sigs thing.  In my edit box here, your signature is two full lines, and I'm on a 1440px wide screen. -- Prod (Talk) 20:53, 12 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Originally, I had it so that in my prefs, it just had the template call (with no subst:). However, the stupid MediaWiki engine always puts a subst: on it. After thinking about it, I'm going to have it subst in another page that contains the call to the sig on it (kind of confusing, but then it is only 25 characters long, which isn't bad at all). And it was 7 on my edit box >.<-- 20:57, 12 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Looks good now, when you said subst I was thinking... uh that doesn't help but you're not substing it now are ye? :-) --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 23:01, 12 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Well, yes and no. My prefs substitutes User:Ryan Schmidt/sig2 into the page, and sig2 contains the call to User:Ryan Schmidt/sig. -- 11:33, 13 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Great way for me to vandalise it, you should protect it (or for non admins move it to .css, it is the same as fully protecting it only admins and you can edit it).--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 11:48, 13 June 2007 (CDT)

Pokemon items and skills
Actually, what I was proposing for those pages (or maybe just thinking to myself) was to make a local page list, just like we did for the Pokédex, of all the items and the skills in the game, but link them to the particular Bulbapedia pages. So in items, you might have: etc., and for skills, we'd have something similar like: See what I mean? Procyon (Talk) 12:59, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Max Potion
 * Max Repel
 * Moon Stone
 * ThunderShock
 * Thunderbolt
 * Toxic
 * Yeah, that DOES make more sense. Artwork probably wouldn't hurt either (the TCG has a few good images, from what I recall). -- 13:24, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Wow, personally, I think bolstering our lists with artwork from the TCG is a fantastic idea. That would look so cool.  I wish Bulbapedia would be so daring.  (Then again, I wish that Bulbapedia's URL was bulbapedia.strategywiki.org... maybe one day.)  As for one centralized list, I also think that is a good idea, since all we are doing is offsite linking.  Every Pokemon guide can point to the same giant lists like they point to the same Pokedex.  I don't see why not.  Procyon (Talk) 13:32, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

Re: Diamond and Pearl
Okay, I might be sounding really stupid right now, but I don't remember asking you for anything like screenshots, and for which version. I'm not sure what you mean. It might be that I haven't been on SW for a couple days, and forgot a question I asked. Regardless, could you please specify what you meant? Sorry for being clueless. Myth 22:23, 19 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Oh. Thank you very much for the help. I guess I wasn't being dumb. But I was wondering what you meant by screenshots. Screenshots for what section? And I was also wondering why you couldn't get screenshots for later in the game. -Thanks again, Myth 23:40, 19 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Gotcha. I'll look over the early parts of the guide and see what would help. Thanks again. Myth 13:19, 20 June 2007 (CDT)
 * One thing that would definitely help is a complete picture of each Gym, if that's possible:I. That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Thanks again ^_^ Myth 17:46, 20 June 2007 (CDT)

About Archiving
I was wondering, to avoid the complications fo archiving, could I do something I saw as a suggestion on Wikipedia? It said some users create a sub-talk-page to archive their talk stuff, and I was wondering if I could do the same. Myth 13:42, 20 June 2007 (CDT)


 * I went ahead and did it. It seems to work pretty well. I just copied it to another page, and linked the archive page on my talk page. Myth 17:42, 20 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Yeah, that's what I do. Feel free to make that you want. They won't get deleted (I have 20). -- 19:17, 20 June 2007 (CDT)
