Heh, that's a good idea.  Problem is, there're no automated systems out there for stuff that appears on MediaWiki front pages (checked a while back).  So it'd have to be manually updated every day/week/month.

Is this something you'd like to be in charge of?  If so, I can set it up on the front page with the first quote, and you can change it every time it needs to be changed with something of your choice (or other people can help you out).  I think every day is a bit too much, so weekly or monthly might be a better idea.

For the Dark Age website, I did have the idea of displaying random quotes from the games a while back, but apparently forgot about it.  Thanks for reminding me!  (Heh...)

Yeah, I guess I could be in charge of that. But other people should of course be allowed to have quote up there so maybe we could have a Quote of the Week page, were you can put up a quote you want to be on the front page. It'll be a first come first serve thing I guess. I guess anybody could update, but I have a feeling I'd be the only one bothering too.

EDIT: Oh, by the way check this out. I also have this posted on Duilin's page on DALPedia.

Hey, would you look at that. A whole day without a single post on DAL. What happen?


P.S. Cool drawing there... But isn't the empty space on the right extra?

Check out my new siggy and avatar. Bet you'll never find out where I got these pretties.

Apologies.  I was too burned out to post yesterday.  Blasted employment.

Yes!!

I feel inspired to draw battle scenes now.  (Heh...)


I will have the quote thing up this weekend or so.

Glad you like it Xor-Guy. Oh and I thought he could use his own page.

Hmm, not really sure if he needs a totally separate page for that form, but there is a lot of info, so it's probably okay.


Featured quote is up!

There is also a link to a sort of quote archive page.  Please add suggestions for the featured quote to this page.  Then when it's time to update,  pick one from the suggested list, delete it from there and move it to the top, add the date for which it became the feature, and then replace the quote on the front page with it.

Enjoy!

Hurrah! March break. I'll be using my new npc, de Sade, for its duration. Also, cookies to the one who knows who de Sade was (unless your name is "Dark Spartan" or "Dude Man").

EDIT: Hee hee. Looks like someone's having fun with the new quote feature. I stopped by to submit a quote suggestion for Steorra, and while I was editing it, three new suggestions appeared.

Must have been Xor-Guy. I just put my Rink quote. I think it's quite funny.

Man, DM, I just noticed how huge of a spammer you are - 5k posts! :O

EDIT: Wait. Looks like I'm spamming myself right now.

Somebody ban me.

P.S. I couldn't figure out how you guys posted you char, so I did it my way... Sorry...

Blarghul-flarggen... Idk, I would have put an awsome quote down here, but a demon baby ate most of \'em, and the rest, everybody else has. So there...

Blarghul-flarggen, fool.

An assassin, eh...

Normally overused, but, I must say, slightly underused in DAL. Now just wait till Xorlak approves your dude, and you're good to go. Let me be the first to welcome you Smile

In other news...

Has anyone checked the top 10 longest posts page? I still own #1, haha, but the thrice-cursed noobe Dark Spartan has 8 other spots... Haraldur's probably having nightmares, his huge post is now a mere #8 on the list. The rest are Dark Spartan's.

"Noobe"? For shame, using such inaccurate verbiage...

Your giant post will not reign for much longer!

I'm kind of getting annoyed with the amounts of book posts. It seems like everyone is trying to out do everyone else. But hey, it's not my place to say how long posts should be...

And I'm NOT just jealous because all of my posts have been bumped off.

Actualy, I'll have to agree with DM on this. This is turning into some sort of competition! It's not like me or DM or anyone else whos got enough stubborness can't write a long-arse story about some people which is 20 pages long and then post it. Better yet, make it 100 if one is desperate.

Competition? What?

Maybe the ideas are too long for a short post. The reason I have the top post is because I wrote a moderately-sized post for each of my active characters in one go, and DS likes to put in a lot of dialogue into his posts. I love reading them, and if you guys don't, then good for you - but don't start to get weird ideas about some "competition": exactly who is competing?
