It's going to be hard to get minute resolution without caching issues. The weather templates lag the day-rollover by about an hour, and I was only able to get that resolution by having hidden time magic words in the individual templates to have "more of the page" change with each hour. The only thing I can think of is to maybe have some hidden text as well in your template (use the same color as the background and make the fonts small) that updates with the counter so that enough things change with the hour? The page looks solid but I can't think of any good worarounds to the caching problems with the minute
counter. If I do, I'll be sure to let you know. -[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 00:23, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Revision as of 00:23, 23 December 2010

Thanks for the help, and also, a few questions

Thanks for the welcome. I appreciated it.

I also have a few questions for you, if you don't mind.

1. Is it smart to put your character's name into your user page? 2. Is Urban Dead active anymore, or is it slowly dying out? 3. Any news from Kevan about his status?

Thanks again.

I likes it. Might misappropriate it for later. We're coming to get you, Barbara 01:43, 16 August 2010 (BST)

Wow, didn't realize it had almost been a year. I never thunk to look at the page history. Am still a fucking wiki-n00b after all this time. Nicely done v4pz x --    : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : 18:55, 18 August 2010 (BST)

Specific Help?

What you need? Page design is amazingly good by the way. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:26, 25 August 2010 (BST)

Specific things I'd like help with are the short story composition. I need some judges and maybe some direction on regulations. I've browsed the past completions and am thinking of going with a similar outline to the one you hosted not long ago. I could also use some art help. I want to have some banner-like images for the tops of the event pages. There will be an Oktoberfest event. Halloween event and a Red October PK event. Red October will be sort of an anachronistic rendition of the October Revolution and subsequent Soviet Civil War where reds and whites hunt one another. I would like to see a siege at the end as well. I'll keep working on the design and get more concrete event plans up soon.~Vsig.png 21:46, 25 August 2010 (BST)
I dont mind being a guest judge. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 18:54, 26 August 2010 (BST)
Sure, just ask on my talkpage whenever you need. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 19:03, 26 August 2010 (BST)

Right

Looking at Red October it seems the perfect event for us. HOWEVER! Read this Malton Manhunt/Axe Hack's Manhunt 3 and its talk page, and I'd look at rewriting the rules so thery're slightly clearer. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 19:02, 7 September 2010 (BST)

Sandboxes

You spelt 'Sandbox wrong in every one of those pages you just made. Want me to fix them quickly?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 22:25, 13 September 2010 (BST)

Ugh, yeah please. I spelled the first one incorrectly and then just changed the number at the end. Thanks. ~Vsig.png 22:27, 13 September 2010 (BST)
Done.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 07:45, 14 September 2010 (BST)

Bellow

Stand outside in Dartside now please. I'm infected with 4HP in a populated building. When you tell me you're outside, I can die, rise and bellow, we'll see what the message is so we can fix the article. Thanks. We're coming to get you, Barbara 23:57, 14 September 2010 (BST)

Gaa haz banana a!rmrh

Roughly "You have cock breath". It's one of the more foul phrase I could concoct in zamgrh. Think you'll be interested in Death Rattle Battle? Or Red OCtober for that matter. I saw that you've left comments but haven't placed on a team. Would like to see you there. --~Vsig.png 07:21, 23 September 2010 (BST)

Brang zah banana nah-ahn gaa barg-zgaarh. I find that it's best to not get to creative with zamgrh, and to stick to the well excepted word wherever practical. I might attend the Rap Battle, but it looks like it'll be rather out of my way. Keep it North of Ridley for highest likelihood of attendance. As for your hunt for my participation in Red October, you'll find I've already signed up. Note the namespace that a certain giant, levitating orb from space has his userpage in. --VVV RPGMBCWS 08:14, 23 September 2010 (BST)
Ah ha! I think the internal conversation you were having with yourself fucked with me. I'll start planning the specifics of the rap battle shortly. N of Ridley seems to make sense. My original thought was Barrahville. I'm open to suggestions, though especially since you seem to be the only one that has shown any interest whatsoever so far. --~Vsig.png 16:01, 23 September 2010 (BST)

Re:A/PD

It actually only means voting once - groups passing the Cat:HG vote do not need to pass the vote for suburb listing. Going the other way would, but unless they happen distantly apart, it's counterproductive for the group. We're coming to get you, Barbara 21:10, 21 October 2010 (BST)

Missed that exemption cluase at the bottom. --~Vsig.png 21:17, 21 October 2010 (BST)
Are you striking your vote or just your reason? If it is your vote, we should modify the format slightly so it doesn't break the count.-MHSstaff 21:38, 21 October 2010 (BST)
I'm abstaining for now. I will vote once I've chewed on it a bit more. --~Vsig.png 21:57, 21 October 2010 (BST)

UD Profile Expander

I've been tooling with UDInventory a bit this evening--download a fresh copy and see if it works for you now. There was a bit of a mix-up as to how I was finding the correct place in the HTML to insert the "Expand profiles" link, and I think I've got it cleaned up. Regardless of your other add-ons, it should find its place. -   HaliphaxTCS 00:39, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Erp.. I meant to say UD Profile Expander. -   HaliphaxTCS 00:42, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Your vote...

...Was unsigned. Also, there's actually more then two bug reports. I just can't be bother to search for them all. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 19:05, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Shit! So...uh so can I sign it now or did I just throw away my vote? ~Vsig.png 19:08, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
Sign and delete the unsigned stuff, or just vote again. Either way works, really. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 19:12, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
Ok didn't know how that only one vote per person clause would work. ~Vsig.png 19:13, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Multiple accounts

Are allowed. Sock votes aren't. See also: almost every Philosophe Knight and/or zerg hunter. We're coming to get you, Barbara 02:24, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Ah ok. Makes sense. I was sorta kinda taking this as canon. I've been...delving a bit into policy and whatnot lately. Still have a lot to learn. Thanks. ~Vsig.png 03:55, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
It's generally a case of retrospectively punishing misused alts, not outlawing them entirely. It's very rare that one is actually used maliciously any more. We're coming to get you, Barbara 04:04, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

I'm just gonna...

...leave this here since you tend to have a habit of not using the talk page. ;)

Talk is for schmucks. I demand action. But in all seriousness, I'll do that from now on. ~Vsig.png 06:54, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
Just don't bold it next time, is all that's needed. We're coming to get you, Barbara 00:03, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Sure. Actually since my talk page was vandalized does that make me directly involved in the case? Not sure if that entitles me to a vote or anything (not that its really needed). ~Vsig.png 01:04, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Yes you're an involved party, but no you can't vote because of it. We're coming to get you, Barbara 01:18, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

Welcome Template

The section in your welcome template where you manually type in the name of the user can be circumvented by you just adding {{PAGENAME}} in to the original template in place of the variable. For example, if I posted it on your page, it would come up as Vapor. Just to ease up on typing it if you're going to.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 15:46, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
