- I wanted to let you know about something I ran into this morning. I occasionally have this happen, where the letters start to go missing, kind of like our April Fool's Day joke from earlier this year, but also not. I don't know if it's a SubetaLodge issue or if there's something up with my computer. I'm using the most recent version of Safari. Generally reloading the tab doesn't do anything, but if I completely close it and open a new one, it all seems fine.

-- that's almost certainly something on your end, I'm afraid. Can you try this: Does the text appear in the source code when you view source?

If so, then the text is getting from SubetaLodge to your browser. You might try changing the zoom/magnification factor and see if rendering the text at a different size alleviates the problem.

- Thanks! I thought it was probably something on my end. The next time it happens, I'll look at the source code and try a few things with the text options.

I'm adding morostide as it goes in, but I can't fully add the notes (I've got Morostide 2020: ) as I have no idea what is going to be from Patch vs ToT. But the notes are at least going to get them corralled together :)

Actually I figured out where ToT stopped and Patch started thanks to pauses haha. If anything turns out different I'm happy to change it but I think they're all labelled right at the moment :)

It's all done! I do it in batches of same category items to make my life easier, and it seems like for the most part they uploaded in batches the same way this time, which made it easier too :)

- I was wondering if we could/should create a page on SubetaLodge that lists achievement prizes. and I were chatting about it briefly, and she suggested that we could create tables of current and retired achievements with the prizes (items, forum titles, site layouts, HA skins). Is this something that you would be interested in having added to the site?

Tell me more of what you ladies are thinking, please There are currently 314 items that would be on the list so it could not be all on one page. How do you see it being laid out? Alphabetical? By prize? By achievement? Images? Text only? How do you imagine it being maintained? Part of the consideration for that would be determined by the layout. If it is in a regular-like-other page table then it would be rather complicated to insert lines into.

It may be the type of thing Osterizer would be able to write a script, making it super easy for being upkept but he is under a ton of stress right now and I don't want to add to it, as I know you guys don't.

I don't think it is a bad idea, I just need more details.

Look! They are changing things during an event again! Lessons never learned!! If something goes horribly wrong on our end I can contact Mr. O. If something goes disastrously wrong on our end I can take the site offline.

Ugh...just when I was thinking, well, that went pretty smoothly. No huge bugs or major lag for the start of Morostide. Hmmm, let us make big, major changes to the backend and see if can manufacture problems.


As for the achievement prize stuff I hadn't thought that far ahead :). Mostly just gather up the data and put it in tables. Alphabetical by achievement name. Separate tables for the different prize types. Stick a table at the end with retired achievements so there is a record for old titles so people looking them up know they can no longer get them.

Was briefly considering how someone would want to use this info.

  1. they are working on the Title Collector achievement and want to know which achievements confer titles (and, I suppose the easiest/fastest ways to get them).
  2. They saw a title in the forums and want to know how to get it.
  3. They just earned something odd or unusual from an achievement and want to know what else is out there to get similar stuff (skins,items,layouts).

So 2 informs us that we should be using the actual title rather than what the prize is called (e.g. Slivyne Catcher, but what is says on your HA is Username is a snake on a plane).

Other issue, a plain old table is boring as hell, but trying to work out something that is more visually appealing, easy to use and easy to update is much, much harder than just making a table.

just skimmed what you said, will go back for a thorough read later. However, if it is just a regular html table we are going to want it to be only one item/title/achievement/ per row. If we have If there is more than one per row each column has to be updated by one every time a new one is added.

Hey folks -- Georgie mentioned I was under a ton of stress lately. So as not to keep you out of the loop, I was in an automobile accident this weekend while visiting family out of state. I'm unhurt, but my car is ruined, and I'm stranded in NC until the insurance adjuster comes out and assesses the damage. While stranded here, I don't have access to my computer (I can log in from my phone, but it's a pain to do anything on there). I'm hoping to be back home by Thursday or Friday.

I'm really sorry about your car, I know how stressful it is to have to worry about replacing and everything else - though I'm very glad that you're okay. Hopefully you can get the assessor out soon so you can get back to your life. Please take care of you!

- Honestly, I haven't given much thought to what the page would look like or how it would work, and I really don't have the knowledge base to have a lot of input to begin with. What I could do is collect all of the data required for such a page, but I would have to leave what it looks like and how it works in more capable hands.

- I am very happy that you are okay. I'm sorry about the situation that you find yourself in though. I'm thinking of you. hugs
