I'm Bob. I'm a senior at Mizzou studying Computer Science. I think that's about all there is to know since I don't really do much else than drink Dr. Pepper, edit this site and read Fark.com.

Theories Formatting

I spent a few good (but sick) hours cleaning up formatting for the various Theories pages. So, if you could, follow the following format (stated in Help:Theories):

• State some citation from canon (either aired episodes or graphic novels released). After stating an example from this source (not an interpretation of the event), cite the occurrence. (eg. (Genesis) ). If there are no examples, simply put "None."
• Use the templates {{plus}}, {{minus}}, and {{note}} (on a new line or with <br> in front of the tag) in notes to expand on the theory. If the point you're making doesn't help or hurt the theory, note it with the note tag. If you're refuting a previous point, such as the following, go to a new line and indent.

|-
| [[Peter]] will no longer get the scar. || None. ||
{{plus}}It's possible that Peter received the scar in the timeline in which Claire was not saved.

:{{minus}}This would create a causality [[paradox]] for [[Future Hiro]]. 
|-

This will yield a nicely indented, easy-to-follow argument:

Theory	Citation	Notes
Waffles are delicious.	Hiro states they are delicious. (Distractions)	- Hiro's an idiot. + No, you're an idiot. Hiro's a genius. • Masi Oka is a genius, and he portrays Hiro.

Hope that helps for those looking to add theories. I get nit-picky about it since a) I used to compete nationally in debate and like structured arguments, and b) I spent a lot of time cleaning up the formatting.

Timeline

Again, a lot of effort into making the timeline work. So, just a few tips.

• 1) Document justification if the date is not obvious. Just comment the justification. Example:

==October 4, 2006==
* [[Future Hiro]] visits [[Peter]] to deliver [[the message]].
<!-- In Five Years Gone, the note on the string web shows this date -->

• 2) If the larger unit of time does not contain more than one event, use the most specific unit for the larger denomination.

eg. If the only event in 1985 is my birthday, do not do the following:

==1985==


===February, 1985===
Bob was born.

Instead, do the following:

==February 13, 1985==
I popped out.

• 3) Until the date standardization is done on the site, use the standard of Month DD, YYYY for listing an event.
• 4) On Template:Infobox event, ensure that the date is done in the following format:

[[Timeline:October 2006#October 4, 2006|October 4, 2006]]

• 5) On the Possible Futures timeline, should the situation occur, note that the future is a different future than the previously known future. For example, when Sylar was originally the bomb, once Peter became it, it should be noted that Peter became the bomb. This should generally coincide with the Dark Future article for some reference.

To-Do

If you would like to help out, it would be greatly appreciated.

• Fix up Timeline:October 2006 so the dates Hiro and Mohinder gave in FYG match up
• Add common shows to Cast pages (we kinda stopped doing that as of late with new actors)
• Shave off the stubble
• Add thumbnails in each episode synopsis (two to three each)

More to come!

Trivia

• Big fan of New Orleans sports (Saints and Hornets baby!)
• Moved because of Hurricane Katrina
• Probably the laziest physically-in-shape person that I know
  • This includes my diet which normally consists of McDonalds 2-3 times a day and plenty of Dr. Pepper, but can still run a 9:15 1.5 mile without going regularly to the gym.
• I don't sleep. My eyelids are permanently open from seeing Bea Arthur naked.
• My userpage mysteriously deletes sections when I try to edit it. Hana needs to leave my wireless mouse/keyboard alone.
