I haven't touched them in a few months, but am back working on the archived articles. I need to get some of them organized so that I feel justified in continuing to work on my own Game Ideas Unlimited series. This is mostly a communication for Aaron and company, noting specific details that need to be addressed that are beyond my current scope, or at least knowledge.
- I had mentioned previously the desire to edit author names. I think there are quite a few authors listed who have no articles and no posts, and ought to be removed (if not for the sake of the database, for the sake of those trying to find specific authors). More pressing, in some ways, there are articles whose authors are clearly identified in the text but for whom no listing exists for assigning them. These are all listed as "Lost to the Ages". I'm creating tags for them as I go, but that's not as satisfactory a solution as creating author identities.
- The article Narcissist 0.5 contains a link that is supposed to connect to a pre-release PDF of the game. It's a dead link (or at least a database error). I was going to remove the link entirely, but the bulk of the review-like article really is that Gaming Outpost has the game available. Is that hiding somewhere that we can link it, or should that piece of the article be removed?
- Game Designer's Journal: Episode 18: Three for the Price of One is missing all the pictures. There are pictures missing from most of the articles that have them, but they matter to this one. Are the pictures still archived somewhere? If I knew how to find them from the old links, I could just reinsert them when I hit them.
Thanks. If you need to reach me by e-mail, it's still referee@mjyoung.net for gaming-related mail.
