Hi, I'm Matt (aka Scubamatt because I am, in fact, a scuba diver). I'm 40+, married, and a veteran of the US Army. I live in Florida, study martial arts, commute by bicycle to work, and play all kinds of games online and off. I'm a recent convert to the Urban Dead game (introduced to it by my son), and enjoying it a great deal.

I've never been interested in the Wiki enough to actually contribute to it, but I really *really* like the Urban Dead game and some of the things I have seen regarding it.
I am learning to make wikipages through trial and error (mostly error, but I haven't been arraigned yet).


So...I am learning to make wikipages, hopefully without causing anyone who views my work to fling themselves under a bus to stop the pain in their eyes.
I saw one user page that really appeals to me (someone named Rooster, who is one of the Admins I think) but I've no idea at all how to make that vertical tab system he has. I will investigate this later, during the weekend, when I have a proper frosty beverage in hand.
 
 
== Current projects for me: ==


My next project is to make a couple of sub pages for my characters in UD (I have 3 or 4, all very new like me).
*figure out how to upload images to the wiki, so I can have a picture for each of my characters


Then I'm going to figure out how to make the nifty little templates I see all over the place - maybe copy and paste the really cool ones, if that's allowed.
*make a decent character page for each of my characters (I have one up for Cujo the Police Dog)

*create a journal/blog type page so I can keep notes on my play as a zombie animal (I want to write a little guide for playing a feral animal in UD)

I am learning to make wikipages through trial and error (mostly error, but I haven't been arraigned yet).

I saw one user page that really appeals to me (someone named Rooster, who is one of the Admins I think) but I've no idea at all how to make that vertical tab system he has. I will investigate this later, during the weekend, when I have a proper frosty beverage in hand.


Current projects for me:

  • figure out how to upload images to the wiki, so I can have a picture for each of my characters
  • make a decent character page for each of my characters (I have one up for Cujo the Police Dog)
  • figure out how to link to those pages from this page
  • figure out how to get my group (The Menagerie) added to the list of groups in Urban Dead. I have a group page for it created.
  • create a journal/blog type page so I can keep notes on my play as a zombie animal (I want to write a little guide for playing a feral animal in UD)
  • figure out how to actually create a template (I have solved the mystery of how to copy/cut/paste existing ones, thanks to Belisarius!)
