Strong Bad's Mount RidesPlace! USA

Scanna: /* Attractions */ sp - nothing imortant, really

[[Image:themepark.png|thumb|"More rides than you or your grandmother can handle."]]
'''Strong Bad's Mount RidesPlace! USA''' is an [[Made-Up Places|imaginary theme park]] that [[Strong Bad]] fabricated in the email [[theme park]]. Although the park's motto is "More Rides Than You Or Your Grandmother Can Handle", the fine print requests that grandmothers not actually be brought to the park. Mount Ridesplace appears to be located [[behind the fence]] in [[Strong Badia]] and features many rides as well as the antics of the [[#Mascots|Mount RidesPlace! USA Mascots]]. Because this theme-park-to-be is very expensive, Strong Bad needs to "start robbing WAY more hot actresses" than he is currently stealing from in order to make his dream a reality.

==Attractions==

The following are all the known attractions in Mount RidesPlace.

*'''Bowels of Trogdor''' — The flagship roller coaster. It keeps spinning you around in circles until you either [[Puking|throw up]] or catch [[fire]] somehow. [[The King of Town]] was shown riding this. Unfortunately for those such as The Cheat, you have to be "as tall as [[Trogdor]]'s [[beefy arm]]" to ride.
*'''The Strong Sad Gets Decked Repeatedly Stunt SPOOK-tacular''' — In this show, [[Strong Sad]] stands on a stage dressed as a witch while [[Strong Mad]] tackles him repeatedly without mercy.
*'''Throw Game''' — In [[Bubs]]' throw game, you have to get the blue rings ''in'' the bottles, not looped around them, as is at the very least, a possible feat. If you win, you get a [[Shark-Tooth Bubs|Bubs doll with a horn]]. [[Pom Pom]] has had the displeasure of playing this game, only to find out the impossible rules.
*'''[[Sweet Cuppin' Cakes]] Land''' — [[The Cheat]] is directed here because he's not tall enough to ride the "Bowels of Trogdor". Sweet Cuppin' Cakes Land may or may not be a separate theme park. According to the commentary for the email [[theme park]] , Sweet Cuppin' Cakes Land was going to have spinning [[Eh! Steve!]] as a ride.

*'''Stoppy the Sign''', played by [[Coach Z]], is the [[Stop Sign]] mascot. Although the costume chafes him, he doesn't mind a good chafe.
*'''Poppy the Tire''' is a mascot representing the [[Tire]]. The suit chafes [[Homestar Runner]] like crazy.
*'''[[General Tso's Chicken]]''' appears in mascot form in Strong Bad's Mount RidesPlace USA. Also known as "[[Ryan Sterritt|Ryan S.]]", this character is portrayed by [[Homsar]]. He doesn't even notice the chafe, and claims that "it's time for tasteball."

==Riverquest Safariventure==
[[Image:riverquest.PNG|200px|thumb|It's a falling rock!]]

Until he gets his full funding, Strong Bad makes ends meet with the "Strong Badian Riverquest Safariventure". The Cheat is another tour-guide on the Safariventure. Some of the "dangers" found on the ride include a falling rock and a headhunter (played by the wooden cutout of a [[Bear holding a Shark]]). [[Homestar Runner]] says it is the [[Best/Worst X bucks I ever spent|"worst $3,000 I ever spent"]].
He seems to have given up on this enterprise, however, as the "boat" was later sold at his [[garage sale]] for $1.04. He eventually put the ride back into business, as seen in [[specially marked]].

== Hyphenate? ==
Should it be called "Grape-Nuts Robot" instead of "Grape Nuts Robot"? The hyphen is visible on the front and top of the robot. --[[User:71.244.175.158|71.244.175.158]] 14:49, 30 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:You're right, 71. According to [http://www.kraft.com/100/innovations/grapenuts.html this], there's definitely a hyphen. Good catch. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 15:03, 30 Aug 2005 (UTC)

== Ceral? ==

On the third line of the ingredients list, it says "more ceral". Is that our typo, or TBC's? Could someone who knows how to decompile flash check it? If it's TBC's mistake, we should insert a "[sic]" or a note explaining that we've faithfully copied it.--[[User:Bobo the King|Bobo the King]] 04:36, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
:It's either TBC's mistake or TBC's purposeful mispelling, as zooming into the flash file says "ceral". {{User:Dr._Clash/sig}} 04:42, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Scanna: /* Better Commando Name */ - backslapping abounds

== Deletion? ==

Could someone explain where the scope of this page is in any way different from the scope of [[Blatant Lies]]? It just doesn't seem like there are two running gags happening here. {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 02:57, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
: It's more specific than "Blatant lies". --{{User:Jay/sig}} 02:59, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
:: Right, but Ryan S. is more specific than Mount Ridesplace Mascots, yet doesn't warrant its own page on the wiki. {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 03:07, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
::: Sheesh, can he develop the page a little before you slap a tbd on it? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 03:14, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
::: I disagree that we can't talk in the abstract about the benefits of having a discussion on the scope. I mean, I would much rather allow this discussion to happen ''before'' someone invests their time into developing this and finding every instance of it. I actually find absolutely no issue in an abstract discussion, and frankly would prefer discussing the ''Merits'' of a page instead of the ''Content'' of a page. Content can always be expanded on, but there Merits of this scope exist the same today as they would a year from now. The merits won't change over time. {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 03:26, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
::::Without all the content, the merits of the topic are generally not clear. At any rate, it's common courtesy not to just tag articles by established users without giving them a chance to make a case for their article. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:33, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
::::This seems like a running gag to me... I was noticing a trend of this sort of thing, myself. Incidentally, how about the fake "error messages" that say "This is real" on them? (I think in [[50 emails]], [[The System is Down]], and "Not the 100th E-mail!!" (can't remember the exact name, so I didn't put a link), but I could be mistaken...) -{{User:YK/sig}}
:::::Ha. Looks like Jay had the idea at the same time I did. =P -{{User:YK/sig}} 03:35, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
Okay. Now that the page have a little more content, I don't ''really'' don't understand what this page is about. It lacks from several problems:
#The name suggests that that we are discussing real objects, but this article is about made-up objects. And also, so of the "objects" are really abstract, like a girlfriend. Tell any women that she is an object, let's see where that gets you.
#The scope of this article is poorly defined. I went over the examples and over [[blatant lies]], and while I see what the creator meant to do in this article, most of these items aren't related. Like Coach Z inviting "all kinds of real people over to [his] house for a coupla real people parties." and Homestar making a "This is real" message. One is a lie told out of shame, the other is note.
#I had a three, but I think I merged that point with #1 or #2... either way this page needs either a major cleanup, a better definition, and name change and some trimming. And all that if it doesn't just get merged with [[blatant lies]], like I think it should be as it is now. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 05:20, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
:I agree with some of this, particularly that the current name isn't exactly spot-on. Maybe something more like [["Real" Things]]? -[[User:DAGRON|DAGRON]] 06:02, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
::I'm not opposed to a name change. Anyway, the gag here is that the characters ''refer'' as the thing they're lying about as being "real" or "true" or "actual" - not just that they ''treat'' it that way. Thus, both examples noted (Coach Z invites "'''real''' people" to his "'''real''' people parties" and Homestar produces a "This is '''real'''" error message) fit perfectly. Was that unclear? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 06:07, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
:::Then let's use "real" in the title. '''Really 'Real' Items''' perhaps? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 08:55, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
:::But I think there is a major difference between the two cases. Homestar was trying to cover up the fact the he made a flagrant error, and Coach Z was just plain-old creepy. The only connection is the world "real", but the examples are inherently different. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 11:39, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
:::: This page isn't documenting the INTENT of the lie - only that they're lying and awkwardly inserting the word "real" (/"actual"/"true") as part of the lie. The only connection between them may be the "real", but as it happens, that's what the page is about in the first place. BTW, I looked over the page and, contrary to my own expectations, "Real" is used far more than "Actual", so perhaps a page name with "Real" in it would be better. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:26, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
:::: For reference, this page is meant to be like [[Not X]] - notice, there, that the "Not MS Paint" and "Strong Bad Emails: 1, Not Strong Bad Emails: 0" and "the first thing I do is NOT drop a piano on Marzipan's head" gags have little to nothing in common outside of the awkward usage of "Not". But since the page is ABOUT the awkward usage of "Not", including all three examples is justified. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:30, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

== Better Commando Name ==

Contrary to my initial impulse, "Actual" is fairly rare in this running gag, so a title with "Real" in it would probably be better. But there is some confusion over the scope of the article, so even with that in mind, a better commando name may be in order. Thoughts? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 22:45, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
:Maybe 'Real' Objects? Highlights the questionable-at-best nature of these allegations. [[User:Scanna|Scanna]] 05:50, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
::It's more about the fact that these aren't all objects... {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 05:52, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
:::True. 'Real' Things? [[User:Scanna|Scanna]] 06:47, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
::::Here's an unwieldy long suggestion I could think of: '''Made-up objects referred to as real'''... That's all I got. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 07:52, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::Well, it's accurate at least....[[User:Scanna|Scanna]] 08:05, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::I reiterate a past suggestion: '''Really 'Real' Items'''. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 09:09, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::::Ooo, I like that. We need to pick one quickly, though; this is still an orphaned page, and really needs some linky lovin', which is pointless until we get a decent name [[User:Scanna|Scanna]] 23:37, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::::"Really 'Real' Items" seem like an ironic title. It doesn't say that the items are not real when taken at face value. I don't think that irony is the best way to handle an article's title. Another point: Don't be afraid to choose long article names. If nothing better comes along, then it's okay to have a long title. Just recently an article was moved with [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=move&user=&page=Derailed+Emails such a title]. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 07:43, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::Okay, I'll give it another few days, but unless any new suggestions are feilded, I'm gonig to be bold and change this to one of the previous two suggestions. [[User:Scanna|Scanna]] 01:49, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::'''Real World Objects'''? We have Real-World References and people understand what that means. Maybe they'd understand Real World ''Objects''! {{User:DevonM/sig}} 01:56, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
<resetting indents> I don't know if it matters at this point, but what about '''Obviously Fake People and Objects'''? -{{User:Brightstar Shiner/sig}} 01:59, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
:How about '''This is real''' ? {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 14:23, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
::How bou... I say anything with quotes around ''''Real'''' like that. That way it is saying that the objects are not actually real. Kinda like what Scanna put. --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 15:08, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
:::I like Qoimac's one, actually. I don't see a huge problem with the ironic title. Like TYD says, the quotes make the meaning apparent enough, imo. -[[User:DAGRON|DAGRON]]
::::I don't think DevonM's or Brightstar's would work. It needs to be either specific (see E.L.'s) or notably ironic (see Qermaq's or possibly Optimistic's); remember that the gag is about the insistence that the object is real, not just being a fake object. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:27, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::I'm convinced that '''This is real''' is the best title. It includes the word ''real'', it doesn't require quotation marks to prove that we're talking about things that aren't real, it's been used for more than one instance of the gag and all the other instances can easily go along with it with a brief explanation in the intro paragraph. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 16:41, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::But it's not very descriptive as an article title. -[[User:DAGRON|DAGRON]] 17:10, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::::I was rather surprised to find that this article wasn't about objects in the physical world, like, say, objects in Puppet Stuff - an article on things that characters claimed to be real but weren't was surprising to me. Something like "Real objects" or "Real things" would have the same problem. Similarly, something like "Really 'Real' Items" would sound like a page of items that had been called "real" and, indeed, are real, not ones that turned out not to be. How about, hrm, '''Allegedly 'Real' Things'''? I don't like that terribly much, but it's all I can come up with now. -- [[User:Mithent|Mithent]] 17:31, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::::I think the article title needs to be able to summarize what the article is about all by itself. So, '''This is real''' doesn't work for me, and '''Obviously Fake People and Objects''' and '''Real World Objects''' don't quite capture the essence of the article. Something like '''Really "Real" Items''' does a bit of a better job — the title claims that these are real objects, but the quotation marks indicate that they're not actually real. But I think that the clearest suggestion so far is E.L. Cool's: '''Made-up objects referred to as real''' — it's long, but I can deal with that. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 17:36, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::Edit: Mithent's suggestion wasn't there when I started posting the above thoughts, but I actually like that suggestion. I don't even think we need the quotation marks: '''Allegedly Real Things''' captures the essential fact they aren't real. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 17:38, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::Yeah, finally another decent suggestion. I like '''Allegedly Real Things''' (and without the qutoation marks is better). And if not Allegedly, maybe Supposedly. Either one, really. They both fit. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 17:48, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::::I'd be satisfied with "Allegedly Real Things." -[[User:DAGRON|DAGRON]] 17:56, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::::Yeah, "Allegedly Real Things" fits wonderfully. Nice work, The Mithent! --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:19, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Frankly, '''Allegedly Real Things''' is E.L. Cool's idea minus 4 (or 3) words. It works for me. -{{User:Brightstar Shiner/sig}} 19:46, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::::::It is, pretty much.. but it's a wiki, it's collaborative :) I like it better without the quotes, yes. -- [[User:Mithent|Mithent]] 20:04, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Ooh, yeah. I like that one. Allegedly Real Things. Yep. You nailed it. --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 20:22, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::::::::Careful with the compliments, Darty. You don't want his head to get too big, lest it crack through the ceiling like that one Air Heads commercial! -{{User:Brightstar Shiner/sig}} 20:51, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

==Some Cleanup Things==
Just a few thing this page desperately needs:
*A Picture. Could someone with the technical know-how kindly upload and insert something relevant. Maybe the index card with the bands logo?
*Genre. However inaccurate the sounds accompanying the index card is, but since we have nothing else, could someone identify what genre they would be...I went with metal based on my limited knowledge of musical styles.
*Expansion of Prose. Something I'll probably get to tomorrow, but it's been a long day and anyone else who wants to take a crack at it is encouraged.

==Merge with [[Minor Video Games]]==

Since the creation of [[Minor Video Games]] and a subsequent decision to keep that page, [[Head Chopper 2]] was merged into that article, and the other video games from [[slumber party]] were added to it as well. Blistergeist is almost as minor as the rest of them, except that "Blistergeist Mode" appears in the playable [[Clapping Party]]. Nevertheless, this is of rather slight significance, and I advocate '''redirecting this article to [[Minor Video Games#Blistergeist]]'''. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 02:36, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
:I dunno, I'm not a big fan of the tendency these days to merge things that have been around for a while into Minor X articles. I really feel articles like that should only be for things that are too minor and insignificant to possibly have their own article (Head Chopper and the other slumber party video games being examples of this). The article we have here stands alone fine, in my opinion (largely due to the Blistergeist mode on Clapping Party), and thus I'm going to oppose redirecting it. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:24, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
::My view is exactly the opposite. When all the info we have on something can fit neatly in a table with other things like it, I'm all for '''merging''' them. There's no special need to have a huge number of short (and oftentimes boring) articles. It doesn't make things more "encyclopedic", IMO, just cluttered. But then, I've always been partial to lists, myself. -{{User:YK/sig}} 04:46, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
:::Nice Chrono Trigger sig :)

:::Heimstern, I agree that merging small articles on notable topics is a bad idea, but I think the problem with this article is that it doesn't have enough to stand on its own legs. The only thing that separates it from the rest of the slumber party video games is the appearance in Clapping Party, and that is 100% documented on [[Clapping Party]], where it belongs.

:::Minor X articles are good when each element on them
::::(1) has small importance and
::::(2) is best understood in the context of the rest of the elements.

:::In this case, Blistergeist ''only'' has significance when either
::::(1) lumped together with the rest of the M-rated video games or
::::(2) discussed as an unlockable mode in Clapping Party.
:::Since it doesn't have any importance by itself, I contend that it shouldn't be on a page by itself. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 07:19, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
::::It's stood on its own legs since 9 November; I don't see that anything has changed so that this is no longer the case. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 07:28, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
:::::Well, [[Minor Video Games]] has just recently been created. Until now, there hasn't really been a good alternative (we'd considered [[Slumber Party Games]] but ended up agreeing that wasn't appropriate). {{User:Trey56/sig}} 07:34, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
::::::That's exactly where I disagree with the methodology. I don't agree with the idea that we have an article that's OK on its own one day, but as soon as there's an article to merge it into, it should be merged; rather, it should be seen as either notable in and of itself or not so, regardless of what other articles exist. This is a bit off of the question of why this article should remain, but there's my thoughts on why merging should be done sparingly. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 15:41, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

:Yeah, we really need more than four people to weigh in before acting on this. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 02:30, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

I'd make the case that the info is already present in the Minor Video Games article and move for deletion. I really don't see what we'd gain by merging - indeed, this is already a case of duplicated info.[[User:Scanna|Scanna]] 05:56, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Just to clear things up: you just added spaces to my translations before exclamation points and question marks.

I live in America, my two resources who helped me both learned French in Quebec. Is there something different between France french and Canadian french? {{User:Techgeekmbg/sig}} 06:44, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

:Hey there — there are a lot of difference between Canadian French and French as spoken in France, but I don't know if this is one of them. I do know that this is something that [[User:Meuhcoin|Meuhcoin]], a native speaker living in France [[User talk:Trey56/Archive 1#French subtitles|thought was important]]. It'd probably be best to keep doing that for consistency with all the ones he's transcribed. By the way, I didn't know this either before he corrected me — they didn't teach it in my French classes either. If you feel like it, it's probably worth contacting [[User:Meuhcoin|Meuhcoin]] about, if you can get ahold of him. Hope that helps! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 06:49, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

== E-Doughnut ==

Remember when you told me the song from Happy Dethemberween was gonna be the Quote of the Week. You said "I bet you one e-doughnut it's gonna be the Quote of the Week." BONK! You owe me 1 e-doughnut.--[[User:Onestop|ONESTOP]] 21:43, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

:But we haven't gotten a new Quote of the Week yet! I realize we might not get one this week, but if the next one they publish is not the Happy Dethemberween song, I will hold true to my promised e-doughnut :D {{User:Trey56/sig}} 22:08, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

== Userbox instructions ==
Hey Trey, sorry to bother you again, but is there a page with instructions on making userboxes, or whatever those "This user is a slice of pie" things are? Thanks in advance, -{{User:GardenBoy/sig}} 22:13, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
:Yup: check out [[HRWiki:Userbox]]. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 22:15, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
::How do I keep missing these things? Also, I just read your welcome text and ''my'' birthday is April 15th too! How weird is that? Thanks again. -{{User:GardenBoy/sig}} 22:21, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
:::Ha — happy Tax Day! By the way, I thought of one last suggestion to make your sig perfectly adherent to the size regulations ([[#Help a Newbie?|see above]]). Laters! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 22:27, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

== Signature (Lux Acerbus) ==
Hey, seein' as how you're a sysop, I'm hoping you can figure out what's wrong with my sig. First of all, the nowrap command or whatever it is that keeps my sig from breaking up into two lines seems to be making it push it outside the border of discussion pages [http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p70/LuxAcerbus/HRWiki.jpg like so]. In addition, the timestamp keeps showing up in one of those weird little blue boxes with the dotted line around it instead of the usual plain text fashion. I don't know what the crap I did, but if you have any suggestions, I'd much appreciate it. Thanks! {{User:Lux Acerbus/sig}} 03:52, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

:I {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=User:Lux_Acerbus/sig&diff=533436&oldid=532574 fixed}} the second of the two issues you mentioned (there was a missing <nowiki></nowiki> tag at the end of it). I'll look into the first issue (the border violation problem) and see if I can figure anything out. (Though maybe fixing the one issue fixed that one as well). {{User:Trey56/sig}} 04:23, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

::Okay, I figured it out. The reason that's happening is the "--" you put before your signatures. If you put the -- inside the no-wrap tag, like this:
<pre><nowiki>--...</nowiki></pre>
::then you won't see your signature bleed over the edge like that. I'm not sure if you want it to be part of your signature or not, but at any rate, that's where the problem is. But unless it really bothers you, I wouldn't worry about it: it's not a policy violation or anything. Hope that helps! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 04:54, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

You still need to give me an e-doughnut. You have '''3''' days from January 15.--[[User:Onestop|ONESTOP]][[Image:bowler derby.PNG|20px]] 23:37, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

== Oop? ==

You removed my vote? I thought non-users could vote. I'm a user on the fanstuff. Why can't I use that account? It'd be nice if I could. I don't really want to get an account here, 'cause I'm not gunna be editing stuff much here. Still Ben, Ben. ([[User:70.54.13.39|70.54.13.39]] 17:45, 22 January 2008 (UTC))

:Nope, unfortunately only logged-in users may vote. From [[HRWiki:STUFF#instructions]], in the "Notes about voting" section:
<blockquote>
You must be logged in when you vote. Votes cast by anonymous users do not count, and your vote will be deleted, even if you have an account. If you do not have an account, take a second to [[Special:Userlogin|create one]]. It won't bite you.
</blockquote>
:So, unfortunately, if you want to vote, you'll have to create an account over here. It's okay if you don't plan to use it for anything else. Hope that helps, {{User:Trey56/sig}} 17:50, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

== Trey, my main man, my ace in the hole, I'm gonna level with you. ==

I have been tinkering around with my sig for about a weeks now, and I'm still having a small issue that the Help page isn't fixing: I would really like the images on either side of my name to link to my Talk and Contributions, respectively. Even using your sig as a model, what ends up happening is it says <nowiki>{{image}}</nowiki> in the external link blue.[[User:Flashfight|Flashfight]]. I came to you because solving promblems seems to be something you're especially good at. I thank you in advance for your time and patience with me. {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 16:37, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

:Hey there. Yeah, this can be tricky. Fortunately, there's now a cool template that does this for you: {{tl|imagelink}}. To use it, type <code><nowiki>{{imagelink|link=PAGENAME|image=FULL_IMAGE_URL}}</nowiki></code>, replacing "PAGENAME" with the wiki page you want to link to (e.g., "User talk:Flashfight") and replacing "FULL_IMAGE_URL" with the full URL of the image you want to link to (e.g., <nowiki>http://www.hrwiki.org/images/thumb/4/4d/Flashfight_Medal_Green.PNG/12px-Flashfight_Medal_Green.PNG</nowiki>) To get the URL for the small version of the image, just right-click on it and pick "Open image in new window", or whatever the option's called.

:Hope that helps, and let me know if you have any other questions! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 17:28, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
::Ok, everything seems to be working well, the only promblem is that I can't get the URL for the thumbnail of either picture (thanks for the URL of the medal...helped a lot). I'm using FireFox if that's relevant. When I right click on the thumbnail of the Cheat Commando, but it's just taking to the Upload log page, not the thumbnail page that the URL you gave. And I think you again for your patience. {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 18:19, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
:::Hmm... some sort of "open image in a new window" option should come up if you right-click (or CTRL+click on a Mac), but in case it doesn't work out for you, here's the URL for the other image: <code><nowiki>http://www.hrwiki.org/images/thumb/b/be/Flashfight.PNG/19px-Flashfight.PNG</nowiki></code> — Hope that helps! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 19:50, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
::::Ok, it was the "open in new window" thing...I've got it, thanks 1*10^10 {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 20:36, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
:::::No problem. And it looks like the links are working — good work! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 22:54, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

== Telltale banned from the forums here ==

Heya, I was wondering if you have the power or the connections to unban the Telltale offices from the HR Wiki Forums. Not sure how that happened, but we're all looking forward to reading about our game :) The IP is 208.106.40.170. some of us have been using tunnels or alternate public IPs to get around it, but that's less than ideal. --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 21:41, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

:I've notified the people who can possibly do something about this, so hopefully it's easily fixable. I'll let you know as soon as I find out more. By the way, the game looks great, and I'm loving all the inside references in the trailer! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 21:46, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

::Woo thanks! The new stuff that we haven't quite gotten around to getting online should (hopefully) be equally entertaining. --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 21:54, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

::: Well that was quick. Looks like we're in! --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 21:55, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

::: [Edit conflict] I've unblocked the IP. I can't find any information as to why it was blocked in the first place. Cheers. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:55, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

:::Great! Let us know if you need anything else, and keep up the good work! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 21:56, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

== User talk page blanking ==
Trey, the edit on my user talk was me, I just forgot to log in. I'm simply cleaning it out, ok? But thanks for your concern, [[User:Chipwich]][[User:Chipwich|Chipwich]] 23:01, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

:Okay, no problem. Just making sure somebody wasn't going around blanking your page. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 23:24, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

== Excellence in Discussion. ==

[[Image:Flashfight Medal Blue.png|thumb|Be proud, you earned it!]]

Trey, it is my esteemed honor to award you with this, the second [[User:Flashfight#Barnstar_for_Excellence_in_Discussion| Medal for Excellence in Discussion]]! There are few people on The Wiki as committed to consensus building as you, but that is not the primary reason for your awardation. Over the year or so that I have been contributing, I have seen no one as patient or understanding with new users as yourself. Truly, it is your calm, level-headed discourse that serves as the model for civility in Talk Pages. When so many of us fall into unfortunate patterns of edit-wars and frustration, it seems that there are few who seem to conduct themselves with more tact and professionalism than you. It is an honor to award you this small token of my appreciation for keeping our little Knowledge Base a little more civil.
{{User:Flashfight/sig}}

:Wow, thanks a lot! That's nice of you :) {{User:Trey56/sig}} 15:21, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

==Thanks For the Welcome!==

It makes a nice change to turn up at a wiki and get the feeling you're in an actual community, not an nedlesscluster of faceless ones. :P Beleive me, thoguh, I'm not that experienced - I mostly footer about on the edge of things to hide my poor wiki markup ski11z. I cheated my way through the double redirects. :)
Seriously thoguh, thanks again, and i'llsee you around.
