Your chance to comment on HTML indicez

[GooRoo]

Below are examplez of the HTML versionz of the current indicez to Gruntz Custom Levelz.

By Release Date ... 2010, for example
By Difficulty ... Very Easy, for example
Alphabetical Order
Designer
Graphicz set ... Gruntz In Space, for example

As much as possible, the 'Map' column will contain a ThumbNail of the actual map, and the 'Statz' column will contain a ThumbNail of the actual Statz Page image. I think the 'heading' for the "By Graphicz Set" will be a Rock/Giant Rock/Hole (all three!) as appropriate for the area. (Done.)

Is this a threat ... or a promise? (Right I now I am merely threatening to do this ... unless I receive some severe objectionz, I will make it a promise!)

This entire Board would consist of a single thread: an HTML link to a list of all of the Gruntz Custom Level Designerz, in three categoriez:

• Questz - Solo Designerz
  
• Questz - Collaborationz between two (or more) Designerz
  
• Battlez - Designerz of Multi-Player Gruntz worldz
  

Obviously, there are some people who will appear on more than one such index list; they have designed Gruntz Questz on their own, collaborated with someone else on other Questz ... and designed Battlez! (Each index has linkz to the other two indicez.)

I still have to add in the majority of "Rocky Roadz" and "Gruntziclez" Custom Levelz into the Alphabetical Order index ... but will probably have that done within the next hour or so. Then all that remainz is to finish the 'Medium' difficulty componentz. I will probably take "the easy way" out on that, and just copy the entire Alphabetical list, and delete everything that isn't 'Medium'. But since I would have to delete the 'How Hard' column, it may be easier to just finish up 'the hard way' ... by copying from the completed "by Graphicz Area" into the partial listz that already exist. At any rate, all of the indicez should be complete by Wednesday ... barring some catastrophe.

We had a bit of a wind storm here last night, and I selected discretion over valor, and shut down when the lightz began flickering. We lost power for a few minutez, but I elected to wait until this morning to finish up the Alphabetical Order list. It is done now. All that remainz to be done is to complete the 'Medium' listz ... and then more proof-reading.

[GooRoo]

Almost done! I just need to proof-read the 'Medium' componentz, and fix some missing ThumbNail referencez that I saw as I was going through the updating today. But I am going to take a short break from the indicez, and create a game-time map for a Custom Level that is the only 'blemish' in one component ... even though it is a 51X51 tile map (almost the worst possible size for screen grabz at my 800X600 pixel screen resolution). Then it will be time to go through the Forum threadz and update those announcement postz for the onez where I have added a game-time map, etc.

December 3^rd, 2010 is the seventh anniversary of this Forum, and my way of celebrating will be to delete everything except one thread in the Indicez Board, leaving just the one with linkz to the various indicez currently in use here:

• Alphabetical Order
  
• by Designer
  
• by Difficulty
  
• by Graphicz Area
  
• by Release Date
  

Since no one has posted with any objectionz (or suggestionz), I will take this action to clean up part of the Forum by eliminating several Sub-Boardz. Since it is counter-productive to try to keep threadz within a Board in alphabetical sequence (re-ordering makez every thread 'new'), this is my meanz of alphabetizing the indicez without skewing the "New Topics" process.

I will also delete this thread, and any other thread relating to the change.
