Three minor self-indulgent requests


Website Feedback

Sovereign Court Contributor

I have three minor requests, all for the greater glorification of myself. Well, actually, I think the 1st one is just generally helpful.

1) Can we have the PFS character alias names show up in a different colour? Right now they appear in the same blue as people's primary alias (at least for me they do) and it makes it harder to spot when someone i already know is speaking as their character rather than it being someone that I don't know. I vote for green.

2) Next time you adding new avatar icons, can you add the guy from PFS #4, page 10? I call 'dibs!'

3) A long time ago, in another age, I had a contributor tag for writing for Dragon and Dungeon. I know those days are over, but I have now written a published PFS adventure. Can I get a shiny new contributor tag, or perhaps a 'PFS Contributor' tag? Pretty please?

I second number 1. Number 2 I can't vouch for, because I haven't seen PFS 4 yet, but when it comes out, I might ninja said image if it's of anything that could be construed as a rakasta because that's how I roll.

And give Craig his special tag, dangit! even if he is a Taldan fop

You have me wrong, sir. I am no fop. The fops pay me to keep them alive.

I need to have editorial update the list of contributors... it's been a while. But I will tell you that if you want a contributor tag, you have to allow us to switch your avatar name to your "as-published" name instead of your nickname. So, nickname or tag—the choice shall be yours.

(Oh, and I didn't answer the first questions because they're really for Gary.)

Congratulations Scribe. Which adventure is your handywork?

That makes sense. I'll take the tag over my nickname... just distract me while you pull the band-aid off fast. Ouch!

On the list. Will be fixed tomorrow or Wednesday.

PS: Probably not green.

I think Craig should get a special "Rambling Scribe" tag in addition to the "Contributor" tag.

Just 'cause.

Me and my cousin had an argument one night that lasted about 6 hours that was based on the question of whether or not the colour red is faster then the colour blue (40k ork awesomness aside). we both pulled some wonky physics, math and chemistry out of nowhere, did a bunch of research online, and finally boiled ti down to a)depends if you're in a vaccuum, b)depends if light is a particle or a wave and c)depends if a cat with a piece of toast butter side up taped to its back would land on its side (I'm serious. it came up.). we eventually stopped due to running out of coffee. great conversation.

Worst case scenario, I'll just sign off all of my posts with my nickname.

As always, Gary is one step ahead of me. And the particular colour isn't actually important to me, as long as it is easy on the eyes and clearly distinct form the alias colour and the primary account colour.

That's why when light hits a prism, it splits into all the different colours, starting with red. Red gets out first, because red is faster.

I agree. I actually thought the same thing the other night while laying in bed (don't ask what goes through my head as I attempt to go to sleep). Good to see someone else thought so too. =)
