Leaderboard currently shows 798 players (not under 700) and 20 out of the 68 players online are (0)s or (1)s which is just about 30%.

Consider making an article on Strategywiki. It's a walkthrough wiki, basically a GameFAQs in Wiki format. I'm an admin there and as such it's my job to help with coding and whatnot.

www.strategywiki.org.

Examples of my work:
strategywiki.org/wiki/BSM (see Table of Contents for everything; my pride and joy =P)
strategywiki.org/wiki/Wolfenstein:_Enemy_Territory
strategywiki.org/wiki/AC4 (work in progress)

Guides must be in English but games can be in any language, so if you guys don't wanna work on a FA article and want to work on something else, go ahead.

That's not a bad idea, especially since we can get actual good information out on the strategywiki.

In before "why don't YOU make an article on Strategywiki?" and associated nasty responses about how much time everyone spends running stuff here and how dare you newbie come in here and telling us what to do.

It's a good idea, now if only there was somebody to do it. No offense intended of course. Maybe Cadet I can be ported there, it's already in wiki formatting.

If anyone is tempted to try to rip this guy a new one, don't. I, and some of th eguys on IRC, had a chat for a good while with this guy about alleg. He mentioned Stategywiki and I told him he should post about it and provided him with a link to this thread. I think it's a great idea

That's why there was an inb4.

Plus it has the support of several pilots who've been around for a bit.

Really though it's not like he came in and said "ur doin it wrong, I can code circles aroudn you!!!11!1!1!!!" He came in and said, "Hey, I like this game, and a lot of games have benefited from having a post on the strategy wiki. You guys don't have one, and I just wanted to poke you guys and let you know about it!"

Sure. Port it over. Knock yourself out. Have fun.

Oh, and don't forget the 300+ images.

http://www.freeallegiance.org/FAW/index.ph...ial%3AImageList

And of course there's the dozen or so templates that are used on nearly every page. But there's no easy way to search for them so you gets no link love.

And that's only the pages for Cadet I. Let alone Cadet II, ACS, and all the ship, station, weapon, etc information on the Academy. And for what? To get another site that needs to be kept up to date as cores, code, and strategies change? No, if you want to put something on StategyWiki it would only logistically make sense if it were even more minimalistic than Cadet I.
