GuideNES: The First Step for Lurkers and Newbies!

[Abaddon]

I'll have the blanked RfmK map up in an hour Joesf.

I can be guide to those who others don't want to guide... I have so much more patience.

Would it be plausible for you two to allow interested players to do an occaisonal update to gain Moderating experience? I know I would appreciate it. You would, of course, have to approve it first, but I am sure you could find some system for allowing it.

And, as I have made the mistake yet again, 'you two' refers strictly to Abaddon and Josef.

As far as I am aware, we havn't had anyone in that situation.. New people are a blank slate ~ I just have a list of people who are willing to be mentors

Sure, Europe will remain divided for a fair while (certainly england/scand etc) and we could split things up so you did an update of that area in order to give it a go...

Hmm, so a YES, but will have to work out exactly how!?

@Abaddon; Oi, where's my map?

 

[Abaddon]

Meh, spent the day in bed with a dirty hoe (her words) and we're now going to tea.. i'll post the map i've ALMOST blanked

=???

To add more relevance to this post, I suggest simply magic-wanding everything that's white, water-blue, and black, inverting the selection, and 100% tolerance-filling the then-selected area with white.

That is, if you have any more-than-basic picture-editing software (e.g. Photoshop, GIMP, Paint.NET) to edit with.

EDIT: My suggestion sucks. /itried I only posted to get that joke off my chest.

GAH!

Gibraltar's Gone!

 

[Stuck in Pi]

And who stands? Russia!

 

[Abaddon]

rest assured, your nations will rise from the ruins of those that went before them

 

[JosefStalinator]

I guess we are teaching the newbs that they need patience when dealing with mods too . Well, Abaddon did most of the work I assigned him (lazy manwhore ), expect update sometime tonight. And don't be surprised if your "nations" turn out a tad different than you imagined...

 

[merciary]

Nah, us from RFMK are very used to having to wait for updates. What you are going to have to break us of is our habit of cracking jokes about it

 

[Stuck in Pi]

indeed. Or we'll begin making commentaries about past wars, and just add complaints 5-6 times a day.

 

[thomas.berubeg]

NO... not all of us... though i can think of a few...

Sign me up for that, I'd like some practice too.

 

[MjM]

Mmmm I do find this slightly patronising. I'm sure us from Forum Games don't need a tutor, just someone to help out occasionally and give suggestions.

Isn't that what a tutor is? Someone who helps out and gives suggestions?

Anyways, I'll be happy to be anyones patron, tutor, helper, instructory, guide, etc.

 

[Pinman]

How about you use this one?

I grabbed it from a friend of mine at RFMK. It is the blank map.

 

[sp1023]

Me too. Since I am not really in this NES, I would like to try my hand at an update, and see if the players like it. Please?

 

[JosefStalinator]

Off to a fairly inconsistent start... but Joe didn't finish tonight . It's ok, alot of work got done, it's the damned NPC's that are killing me. If abaddon ever gets online *cough* he can help me there, and help put on some of the finishing touches when I get there. Until then, expect update tomorrow.

EDIT: I need Abaddon to take care of things, and have passed some work onto him while I sleep. This will speed up the updating process if he isn't a lazy bastard .
