Re: PBEM Game: Yarnspinners 2
The Yarnspinners2 wiki is now at it's official site:
yarnspinners.improbable.org
We're still looking for a name, and a nicer logo, but please start playing around with it and post requests, problems, or questions.
There may still be some peculiarities with the caching (we're working on it). If your edits don't show up on the main pages, try clicking on the "Refresh Page" link at the top. Also, image uploads probably don't work yet, although we'll have that working soon.
The structure will probably be that the official TurnX pages are editable only by admins (puffyn and I). These pages are just shells which include the text from individual yarns, which are currently editable by everyone (no log-in required). People should respect the sanctity of each other's yarns and not modify them. Yarns can link to other subpages, describing characters, etc. I think we will allow these to be edited by anyone also. Thus, if you wish to make a page about a character in your empire, don't be surprised if someone else edits that page to include less flattering things about him or her. Similarly for a dispute province (imagine if India and Pakistan could both edit an article about the Kashmir). The version-tracking in the wiki software will allow you to recover old versions if you wish.
The individual yarns will likewise be conglomerated into individual race pages, where the respective owners may wish to add other flavor, descriptions, or whatnot.
As a concrete example- editing the file MarignonTurn0 will cause the same new text to appear on both Marignon and Turn0 (it may be necessary to refresh page to see the changes).
Okay- have fun.
