00:21.47mithroThumper_: it could just be that I didn't know how to find the non-empty servers
00:21.58mithroI was kind of in a hurry (lots of games to capture) so I didn't look very hard

05:46.20brlcadthough there are periodically package maintainers that drop by, ask some build questions for the build system they're working on, then disappear to integrate bzflag

22:07.57menotumesomeone fixed that link on the wiki ?
22:10.55JeffMthat one link that we have out of the entire wiki, I dunno man
22:10.56JeffM;)
22:11.48menotumesupposed to be a link to bzflagcheat site
22:11.52menotumei can't find it
22:12.03JeffMwhere do you see this?
22:12.14JeffMthere was one on the old wiki
22:12.15menotumethe person said "on the bottom of main page, by external links"
22:12.19menotumeohhhhh
22:12.32menotumehe said this one was there as of 5 mins ago
22:12.55JeffMwe don't have an external links section
22:13.34menotumei know :)
22:13.51menotumewhere's the old wiki ?
22:13.58JeffMand who would "this person" be?
22:13.59JeffMit's gone
22:14.00menotumehe said the link text was 'another fan site'
22:14.11menotumea_hobo
22:14.11JeffMwe moved all the data to the new one ages ago
22:14.14menotumehe's matching atm
22:14.33menotumewell, i don't see it
22:14.53JeffMI do
22:14.57JeffMit's not on our wiki
22:14.58menotumethere's an 'external links' section on Getting_Help
22:15.01JeffMit's on wikipedia
22:15.01menotumeohh
22:15.04menotumeeeeek
22:15.05JeffM;)
22:15.45menotumewell, fix it! :P
22:16.03JeffMI did
22:16.13Winnybah
22:16.15Winnybeat me
22:16.20JeffMsince it dosn't quite fit the "fansite" thing
22:16.29JeffMbut then they could get it kept there
22:16.34JeffMas I'm sure that is there hope
22:16.44JeffMsince it could be said to be about bzflag
22:16.49ruskieconsidering the elitism of wikipedia...
22:16.58JeffMit's not a notable site ;)
22:17.09menotumeyou fixed it? i see it :)
22:17.33JeffMrefresh your cache
22:17.50Winnymenotume, he was also bugging us about F5ing the 2nd match
22:18.02menotumei knew that :P
22:18.26Winnygoodie
22:18.28Winny:p
22:18.39JeffMit's suposed to describe the software
22:18.59menotumesomeone needed to write *something*
22:19.03JeffMcross wiki links would be fine for it
22:19.07JeffMit has stuff that is something
22:19.20JeffMthe map crap is just fluf trying to fill out the article
22:19.24JeffMand there is no need for that
22:19.26menotumeexactly
22:19.52F687smaybe at least trim the map section down...
22:20.04JeffMtrim == remove
22:20.22F687swell, at least leave in the point that people can create custom maps
22:20.24JeffMsimply state that one of it's features is user made maps, and cite the wiki maping section
22:20.32JeffMthat's it
22:20.32F687sthe "full list of map objects" is not necessary
22:20.41JeffMlots of it isn't
22:20.49JeffMlike that "bzflag supports 3 types of messages"
22:21.19F687sheh
22:21.54*** join/#bzflag whodaman- (n=whodaman@pdpc/supporter/student/whodaman-)
22:22.08menotumeya, it convolutes the page
22:22.31JeffMit should be redone along the lines of other software pages
22:23.25JeffMit can have a gameplay section, and playerbase section, and a community section
22:23.30JeffMand just refrence other things
22:23.31F687syeah, there's a lot that could be removed...
22:23.53JeffMit looks more like an ad then an article

23:13.52jftsangbut since when was "got" a present infinitive?
