Can we self-organize a wiki/guide

AdrenalineMimeover 11 years ago

There's no wiki, the learn tab has nothing, and there's a lot of info that we consider just common knowledge but isn't actually written anywhere for new players. Assuming Lucid doesn't reactivate the wiki* we need to actualize something ourselves.

Also it can't be as dry as the rules page, it has to be something new players actually want to read. The new player doesn't have to understand everything immediately, we just need a resource that we can direct a new person to if they don't know something. (The more I type the more I realize we just need another wiki.)

Sample list of stuff i've found that new players don't know about: suiciding, kicking, vegging, ranked vs unranked. etc. (others players know about this better than I do)

*i'll try and email him for the wiki back

I remember lucid once asking someone to make a tutorial. I think someone made something reasonably good...like a youtube video. But I dont actually know

I liked the wiki. I would always go there if I wasn't sure of how a certain mechanic worked. I didn't even realize it was gone until I tried to find it today. I say bring it back.

i suggest we migrate to the dangan mafia wikia
http://danganmafia.wikia.com/wiki/Dangan_Mafia_Wiki

That's not true, I've met a lot of people that say they used the wiki. I myself remember using it to make sure of certain mechanics.

Most of the people that visit the forums don't need it anymore, but there's other newer players that do,or at least could make use of it, IMO

RALLY THE TROOPS. IT'S WIKI TIME.

the wiki was only used for testing mechanics back in the day so why bother

deleteddeletedover 11 years ago

Didn't Teksura just purge it in the end

Also it can't be as dry as the rules page, it has to be something new players actually want to read..

deleteddeletedover 11 years ago

Because it was outdated and no one used it

Was it ever made clear why the wiki was eliminated in the first place? I hope all the work is at least saved somewhere.
