How do you tidy up/check/annotate your guides?

I don't do much technically. I have a Python script that lets me be lazy typing commands initially. Then it converts .w .s ..x miscellaneous thing To >W >S >>X MISCELLANEOUS THING It doesn't seem like much of a time saver but it's nice. I also use >> for optional commands and > for necessary ones. O...

Re: Writing in information for (my own) series?

I got it, thanks, Garry! I thought I'd looked through all the options, but I hadn't. There was an option in my control panel I 1) hadn't seen and 2) assumed that sort of thing was set by default, but it wasn't. It's weird how not getting expected notifications derailed my writing for a bit. But now ...

Re: Writing in information for (my own) series?

Thanks to both of you for the responses and tweaking the pages here! It's good to know the process isn't too difficult. This is a tangent, but does anyone else have a problem with notifications maybe getting spam-screened by GMail? I half forgot I posted here and didn't get a mail notification. As f...

Re: Linking to outside walkthroughs?

Thanks everyone! These seem like really common sense responses.

I guess I can do small stuff like tweet my latest contributions or maybe even have a monthly roll-up at IFDB or intfiction.org.

And yeah I've seen my stuff on other sites too. You can't really stop it i guess.

Writing in information for (my own) series?

Hello again, I have some games of mine that are on CASA (which is a thrill!) and I had a question of how to note that they were part of a series. I noticed other people had done the work other places e.g. with Problems Compound. I tried looking at Zork and seeing about sending an update, which didn'...

Linking to outside walkthroughs?

I'm looking through game data for games I can add information for, and I'm wondering 1. how helpful it would be to provide links to outside walkthroughs such as David Welbourn's which are hard to do better than 2. how we should best add the HTML links as information e.g. "Show update" and add someth...

Re: Walkthroughs for IFComp games?

That would have been me. I'm afraid I lost the import script when my old laptop died. Sorry! I would need to rewrite them, and honestly, free time for that is currently not on the horizon. Incidently, hi Andrew! This is Hannes :) Hello! Good to see you here. Yeah, it stinks to lose (or forget how t...

Re: Walkthroughs for IFComp games?

I noticed there were a lot of IFComp 2010 games filled in but not 2012. Is there any guideline for converting them? The addition of IFComp games to the site was semi-automated, I don't know if the person responsible for the scripts can currently spare the time to run the scripts to bring IFComp ent...

Walkthroughs for IFComp games?

I'm wondering what the mods here feel about hosting walkthroughs for IFComp games. In some cases, walkthroughs are provided as public domain, but in other cases, the games are rather tough (possibly for the wrong reasons) so it might be useful. I noticed there were a lot of IFComp 2010 games filled ...

Ironically, the message from this forum saying I had a PM was kicked to my webmail spam, so I didn't see it til--it was already taken care of. Good work there.

I got it, I hope.

If you're still around. Basically, the solution I bet you have is for the Apple. The PC has things in different places I think. I had to look into the .MOQ files and do some guess work. You had to say something, but what? Something that would render the queen and rook irrelevant...it's not as silly ...
