Random trivia
G4 just called me and they want me to send them a bunch of random trivia that will air on Saturday between episodes. If you have any good ideas in the next half hour or so, let me know. Thanks, Miami! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:04, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
- Looks like you got that covered. I was afk when you left the message here, but I can help out with more trivia for next week. Should I add more just in case?--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:07, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
- That's cool--I was just checking over RCs when I got the call, and I saw that you were either online or had just been online, so I thought I'd give it a shot to recruit you....I'm not sure if it's going to be an every week thing, or just during the marathon. If you have anything off the top of your head, go ahead and add it, but do it in a new section so I know which pieces have been sent and which haven't. But don't go to any trouble researching or anything like that until I'm sure I'll need it again. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 23:15, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
Original Easter Egg
Just out of curiosity, how did you get a copy of the original Easter Egg? I've been asking around quite a bit about it, and nobody has it! Well done on grabbing it right away, if that's what you did. You're about the only person I've come across that has it. Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 22:53, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
- Mostly it was luck. I just happened to have not clicked on the new one yet when I saw someone post that the image had changed. Thus, I was able to grab it from my cache by changing into "work offline" mode and saving it, since I was up this morning when the novel was released.--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:12, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
- I saved a copy because it was odd and I figured they might fix it. -Lөvөl 15:00, 31 October 2007 (EDT)

- Thanks, Level. Looks like when switching from one skin to another, I reset my preferences by mistake.--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:30, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
my sig
you recomended that I needed to alter my sig here. I dont know how. might you do that for me at this page? thanks!--SacValleyDweller (talk) 18:21, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- too small--SacValleyDweller (talk) 19:23, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- Perfecto, now!--SacValleyDweller (talk) 19:34, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- You now need to set your signature in your preferences to insert {{User:SacValleyDweller/sig}} instead of the content of the entire template, as you are doing now.--MiamiVolts (talk) 19:37, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- Actually, I assume he's subst:ing it, which from a server viewpoint is preferrable.--Hardvice (talk) 19:48, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- If it was a shorter template, I'd agree, but it's a large one just to print-out a name and that gets very spammy on talk pages.--MiamiVolts (talk) 19:55, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- I just hate to think of a talk page doing three hundred unnecessary transclusions.--Hardvice (talk) 19:59, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- Actually, if there's 300 transclusions on a talk page, it's in serious need of archiving--that's not going to happen. Anyways, I'm not in favor of these backgrounded user sigs, but I'd rather have them in a subpage template since an outright ban isn't going to happen.--MiamiVolts (talk) 20:23, 4 November 2007 (EST)
