Move Lists project
Thanks for your edits! You may already know about it, but we have a Move lists project which you are more than welcome to join. They could always use an extra voice in their discussions on the talk page and they are great for answering any questions you might have about our policy with Move Lists and fighting games. Cheers!-- Duke Ruckley Talk 14:08, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you for making me feel welcome. Sure if I have any questions or suggestions, I'll be sure to go to the Move lists project talk page. (BackLash 14:15, 6 December 2008 (UTC))
 * Hey BackLash. I want to echo Duke's sentiments.  I'd also like to invite you to have a look at our Street Fighter IV page.  Specifically, if you take a look at the moves page, you can see that another one of our users was experimenting with an alternative command list layout.  If you were interested in bringing that to the Street Fighter II lists, that would be great.  However, I realize that it's quite an undertaking, so I would understand if you weren't interested.  Either way, keep up the great work, and thank you for your contributions.  Procyon (Talk) 18:09, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
 * By the way, do you have any advice on how to actually perform the special moves correctly on Street Fighter? For example, the way I perform a Hadouken in Street Fighter II works for me every time, but when I try the same motion in SF1, it rarely works, if ever.  Instead, I always end up rapidly shaking the joystick between down and forward and pressing punch with the hopes of it magically happening, and that tends to work, but it leaves me wide open to attacks in the process.  Just wondering if you had any advice.  Thanks.  Procyon (Talk) 22:36, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I haven't actually played it in months, but on the arcade version I just hold the controller firmly and follow through with the motion. Dosen't work all the time, but most of the time it does. I hope that helps. (BackLash 22:50, 9 December 2008 (UTC))

Uploading images
Hey, great job on all the fighting games you're contributing to. Since you're uploading a lot of images, I just wanted to say (in case you don't already know) that you can use the multiple upload form to make it a little easier on yourself. It makes it go by a lot faster for me when I'm uploading a ton of the same types of images, 'cause I can just copy/paste the summary and categories really quickly. Thanks again for all the awesome contributions! - naj zere 22:44, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, no I didn't know, I wish I did, doing one at a time is a pain. (BackLash 23:03, 9 December 2008 (UTC)).

Down to Up-Forward motion
Hi Backlash. Now that you added a considerable number of d-df-f-uf motions to the list, I was wondering if you thought that was sufficient, or if it was worth trying to create a new single icon for that motion. My only worry is that it might be confused with if it doesn't extend high enough. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

P.S. Did you ever have a chance to consider my proposal to take the new format of the SF4 move lists and bring them to the existing lists? Procyon (Talk) 03:31, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm interested but bight now, I would just like to input the moves for the characters. Doing something like that would take a bit. I do think it's a great idea, but if I decide to do it, I won't start right away. I hope that's okay.

As fot the d-df-f-uf motion, I think one icon is needed because alot of old games use it, but if it's confusing then don't worry about it. (BackLash 18:35, 11 December 2008 (UTC))
