Hello, after looking at some old posts and clicking a few links, I decided that we should form a history of armor games.

Would the greatest, oldest, and most worthy step forward to help in the quest of knowledge? The bounty will be plentiful.

We would need some editors, of course.


Do not makes me anything of anything. Just give me a task, and I'll have it done. I do not work well alone.

Assuming it goes through.

It's a fixer-upper, if you will. We can add to it.

Yeah, I was about to say that if we stick with that one we would definetely need to start over.
If we make a new wiki or continue with the old one, we should make a thread on which things to put in the wiki, and there, people would post potential articles.
Of course, we would need to decide a template, rules, guidelines, etc.

Stick with simple. I've done 4 or 5 of these types of things with people, and they get overly complex and we have to abandon the idea.

A new one would be best. Besides, taking over a Wiki without the author's permission is sorta . . . off key.

Well, maybe not start it over, but definetely put on a new coat of paint, if you know what I mean.
I took a quick look at the web map, it is in dire need of repair.

The Armor Wiki that was in Carlies profile was made by DirkPitt and myself and Carlie actually helped in some of the contents of that site. You can look at it here:

[url]http://armorwiki.wetpaint.com/[/url]

Though the main issue with it was that it restricted us from adding certain content to it, and it had way too much unneeded content in it, and overall just had a lot of issues so we stopped working on it after awhile(DirkPitt kind of disappeared though after awhile) Still I have never seen that one.

TSL3 and crimson, if we actually do this and make a new wiki, should there be anyone else to be in charge?
Of course, if either of you do not want to be in charge of it, that's just fine. There are plenty of other people that would be willing and meet the requirements.

uhh....IDK thats an interesting question. I think right now it should be more of a question of whether we should create one or not based on how much content we plan on adding to it.

No one person should ever be allowed charge. Only a group can fulfill the needs adequately.

Although IF you need one person I'll do it. Although I'm unorganized, I have no life and my homework is normally done while I'm online, and as such, I can operate from 4:45-12:00pm central US time.

Overall Community Wiki. Everything.

Might take a long time, but hey, Rome wasn't built in a day.

OK, to crimson, I understand your thoughts, our plans have been barely conceived yet.
And to TSL3, I agree. I think we should form a council, balancing out the power with each person. If we do do this, then we might want to either put one person in charge of organizing the events, or devise a system to have each person organize randomly...
Please, share your thoughts on this.
P.S. I don't care if you're unorganized, I'll probably be good enough for the both of us. I assume--from what you have said--that if I can give you a task, you will be able to complete it. If we do it this way, then it will be fairly easy. As for crimsonblade, how do you work? What are your strategies?
