Re: Promo and others

Good work, mate, but I'd like to change around the message content a tad (I'm a bit busy at the moment, so pay me no mind), and as you can see here (ignore the textual content, it's just a placeholder) I re-did the colour and indent settings to fit more pleasingly into the template. Did you say you redid the scan update template thingy of Alka's? Bravo! Do you have a link to it? I don't see it in your sandbox. Sorry for the brusqueness, I'm a bit pressed for time.

No problems here, just wanted to get it up and running. I am not the world's best copywriter. You can see the changed example to the Suburb Scan Template on our NW Talk page or in my Sandbox3. The source for the template on the WIKI is located here--Dr Mycroft Chris 11:06, 14 June 2009 (BST)


Template:NWnews

I've took the liberty to fix it. Setting align="left" causes the template box to hover to the left and the text to wrap around it. By removing alignment code altogether, the template stays to the left but the text doesn't wrap.

Just one question though, was the decision to change the template yours? Or was it a team effort?

The reason I'm asking this is because, while the template looks nice and professional, I kind of miss the good old A.L.I.C.E. -- Kittithaj 18:17, 17 June 2009 (BST)

As you are doubtless aware, NecroWatch is at best a loose confederation of like-minded citizens. We recieved a "complaint" about the ALICE template being too obtrusive. We started a discussion between it's creator and us. He gave us carte blanc to re-do as we saw fit. However, we also took this opportunity to change the design as this new template promotes NecroWatch, which is the whole reason we started the template idea to begin with. The ALICE template is sooo cool, but only promotes us tangentially. I must admit, I took action quickly once we had a general consensus and no one voiced a dissenting opinion, so voila! Nothing is carved in stone, all things can change. But it is nice to just get it done, too. BTW, thanks for the adjusting the code. That's a bit of a weak spot for me.--Dr Mycroft Chris 21:08, 17 June 2009 (BST)
Well, to tell the truth, I'm not a Wiki code master either. I tried to change its position to align=center as a temporary (and "obtrusive") solution. But I misspelled it to "cemter" and the preview worked fine. So I just removed the alignment altogether. Talk about a lucky mistake.
Anyway, the A.L.I.C.E. template is now forever preserved on the discussion page so people can relive their fond memories of it. -- Kittithaj 16:31, 19 June 2009 (BST)
Ha! ROFLMAO! What a wonderful mistake...Thanks, again.--Dr Mycroft Chris 23:49, 19 June 2009 (BST)

Ok, I meant map scans, you are doing DNA scans, good!--Dr Mycroft Chris 02:19, 19 June 2009 (BST)
Whats Map scans??? --Dr Red Shadows 02:21, 19 June 2009 (BST)
When you are inside a NecroTech facility, you'll notice a button that reads, "Access NecroNet." When you press it, you'll see a map appear that gives you a readout of zombie numbers in the area. THAT is what gets posted to the WIKI, for example see The Rothwell Building.--Dr Mycroft Chris 02:24, 19 June 2009 (BST)

I don't have that! And MAN I FUCKED UP!!!! DAMN!!! Lol. I am left outside.!!!!!! I need to wait 30 minutes. And this is a good place to scan B/C there are a lot of zed mobs. --Dr Red Shadows 02:26, 19 June 2009 (BST)

Sorry to hear that, but education is expensive...Which 'burb are you in? S. Blythville? is that correct?--Dr Mycroft Chris 02:29, 19 June 2009 (BST)

Yeah. --Dr Red Shadows 02:31, 19 June 2009 (BST)

Odds are that you may wake up dead...do you know where the nearest Revive Point is?--Dr Mycroft Chris 02:33, 19 June 2009 (BST)
If it's powered, The Pippard Building is a good spot--Dr Mycroft Chris 02:35, 19 June 2009 (BST)

The Zeds are on a killing spree. I went by there and it was EHB. My safehouse is VSB. My other one zombies brook in when I was gone for 2 second. --Dr Red Shadows 02:38, 19 June 2009 (BST)

I died. I will see tomorrow if I got revived. --Dr Red Shadows 00:21, 20 June 2009 (BST)

Which RP did you go to?--Dr Mycroft Chris 05:58, 20 June 2009 (BST)

Someplace. But I got revived. YAY!! --Dr Red Shadows 15:37, 20 June 2009 (BST)

Might as well answer you here to save AP

Yeah, we're in the area. Word is we'll be getting a lot of reinforcements too. --Haliman - Talk 01:04, 18 June 2009 (BST)

Glad to make your acquaintance Sir! I'm aiming for scans from the other 2 NTs in Quarlesbank soon, but gotta go get gas & gennies first. Seems like a bunch of disorganized ferals roaming around that 'burb. Thanks for the heads up--Dr Mycroft Chris 01:33, 18 June 2009 (BST)--Dr Mycroft Chris 01:33, 18 June 2009 (BST)

Penny heights NT's

Was craddy reclaimed, or did you just drop a fueled genny inside? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:11, 18 June 2009 (BST)

Just a drop to get the scan, 3 zeds inside (Ghost Recon Ribbon). BTW, how you doin'? My alt is resting in the Humphrys Bldg a few clicks away loaded with ammo if needed, 3jabbers and a toolbox--Dr Mycroft Chris 21:35, 18 June 2009 (BST)

Recent News Template

Hey there Dr Mycroft. I just wanted to let you know that I'm reverting your recent edit to the template recent news.

The way the template is supposed to work is you type
 {{recent news}} 
onto a location page and the template will set up a news archive link. You don't actually add any information to the template itself, but rather to the location page. I hope that makes sense? Anyways if you have any questions on how to use the template or if you have any suggestions on how to improve the directions for its use please feel free to contact me via my talk page.


Laters! --GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 17:11, 23 June 2009 (BST)

Oh, you know what, I just went to the Vincent PD page to re-add your info there and I realized that it was a problem with the template itself, and not something you did. Sorry for the confusion. I'll sort it out. --GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 17:20, 23 June 2009 (BST)
