[edit] List of Chrono Trigger Endings

It's very cool to see the guy who wrote the classic list I used way back in the day and referenced recently while compiling some game information myself. If you're still a Chrono Trigger fan, I'd appreciate your feedback on a guide I've been working on: http://strategywiki.net/wiki/Chrono_Trigger

I've broken the walkthrough into chapters based on the name of the Save Game File since its an easy reference point, and also because there's a one to one mapping between chapters and endings in all but two cases (the ending where Crono talks occurs in the same chapter as another ending, and two endings can fall on the chapter: "The Masamune" depending upon whether you have Frog in your party or not)

That mapping makes it easy to reference what ending is possible if you beat the game at any point during the walkthrough, and it makes it clear on the "endings" list what the possible intervals for each ending are. I've also tried to map out the one other tricky sequence in the game, The Trial, which is slightly glitched based upon my observation: http://strategywiki.net/wiki/Chrono_Trigger/Walkthrough/Chapter_4

Anyway, you've helped me out (indirectly) in the past, if you can provide any advice or edits to the wiki guide, it'd be much appreciated. Thanks!--BigCow 20:17, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Glad to hear from somebody who enjoyed my FAQ. When the PS version came out, I couldn't find my original HTML file - only the text file in gamefaqs. I then used google and found several copies of my original file with other peoples' names on it, so I guess others enjoyed it was well. ;^)

I looked at your wikistrategy entry and made a few tweaks, but don't have much time to spend on it right now. I'll look closer later. wrp103 (Bill Pringle) 23:46, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding Radiata Stories

Just wanted to let you know that when I deleted the spam links, I never meant to imply that yours was, too! I checked the link out and was greatly impressed, and wanted to keep it in there, I just didn't know the protocol. I know I've tried selectively deleting links like that in the pas, only to get hounded by the guys whose links came out on the short end of that stick, so on this instance I took an all or nothing approach. But glad to see it's back up. Keep up the good work. --Bkessler23 18:43, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

I didn't think you were implying it was a spam link, although me adding it back in could be called that. ;^) I had considered deleting those same links, so I was glad to see that you had done it. wrp103 (Bill Pringle) 18:58, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dialogue at CoJCoLDS

Thanks for reverting that; for some reason (dyslexia? didn't know I had it), I misread that as something like "A dialogue of Mormons" or something else that appeared inane. Tijuana Brass^¡Épa! 23:23, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

No problem. I was glad to see that it was online, and got a chance to re-read my favorite article: "The Meeting" wrp103 (Bill Pringle) 03:30, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] POV tag

I'd appreciate your thoughts here. --uriah923^(talk) 22:39, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gorillas

Hi, please see the discussions page. i'm trying to reach a compromise here. IMHO, it is not acceptable to have the US and not UK conversions. Either both or neither - i don't actually care which. We are getting into a situation where this constant editting and reversion is silly. can't we come to an agreement?

Cheers Fred --Yaf201 12:51, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Bill,

Thanks for joining the mediation. I think by adding yourself as an interested party you need to sign under the "agree" bit. As I understand it that agreement is to take part in the mediation not signifying that we have agreed an outcome.

[edit] Dispute at anti-Mormon

In order to gain a consensus concerning the issue at anti-Mormon, would you please comment here? --uriah923^(talk) 04:23, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] November 2006 Mormon Collaboration

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been selected as the November Mormon collaboration of the month. I look forward to working with you on it. --uriah923^(talk) 21:48, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Admin

Bill, forgive me for taking so long; I actually thought I had responded immediately, but I must have been dreaming.

First, I am not an admin. I have had different people talk to me about it in the past, but it has never been something I felt like pursuing. I enjoy being an editor and I completely enjoy the vast majority of the editors on Wikipedia. However, I focus more on interaction, wordsmithing, and correcting blantant errors than anything. These are activities that I can perform well without being an admin.

I would encourage you to talk to User:Visorstuff. He has been an admin for a long time, though his activity has been curtailed the last few months because of other demands. Another would be User:COgden, though I am not positive he is an admin. There are a number of others that I would refer you to, just let me know. I strongly encourage you to use a sponsor if at all possible. Many editors become admins by nominating themselves and I have supported their nominations, but with being sponsored you gain mentoring which can be invaluable when it gets "sticky".

In closing, I would support your nomination and would do so without reservation. However, put some more thought into why you desire this position. Simply seeking to gain the ability to block another editor falls short of proper motivation, IMHO. Review the responsibilities of being an admin to confirm that you want to fulfil those duties. Balance your monitoring of vandalism with welcoming newbies; welcoming others has been something that I have enjoyed doing. It would also be helpful to review editors that have failed in their nomination as well as those who have succeeded. You will see a definite distinction between the two groups. If you can't get to Visorstuff email me and I will make sure you get in contact. --Storm Rider ^(talk) 09:06, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Drnoitall.hello

Why did you remove my things? Please tell me so in future I won't make the same mistake. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Drnoitall.hello (talk • contribs) 12:21, 2 April 2007 (UTC).

I see. Thank you for that. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Drnoitall.hello (talk • contribs) 04:11, 3 April 2007 (UTC).
