Sorry about the little mess, but I prefer the hyphen over the slash.  Anyway, here are the blanked pages:

*[[Nightcaps/Stare back]]
 +
*[[Nightcaps/Keep staring]]
 +
*[[Nightcaps/Jeffrey's leaving?]]
 +
*[[Nightcaps/What's wrong?]]
 +
*[[Nightcaps/Holding Jeffrey's hand]]

Oh and if I can ever make it easier on you by doing something differently (still getting the hang of CYOA, not to mention wiki-editing in general), don't hesitate to point out my noobery.  I obviously don't need to invite you to change anything that... well, that you would change anyway, haha.  Thanks!  [[User:NightChime|NightChime]] 03:00, 19 October 2009 (PDT)

I would like to thank you for all the editing that you do, really appreciate it. You must really like writing don’t you? If there really were a Nazi grammar group then I’m sure you would be in the SS!

Hey Platypus, I told on the first page of the Burning Leaves story that I didn't want no one except me editing the story because I already have the whole story planned but you still keep editing it, stop with editing it please.

Thanks for correcting my grammar and I'm sorry for getting angry at you, it's just that I saw that there also were new things added and since I saw that you was the only other one than me that had been editing it I thought you did that but maybe you wasn't.

== Rampage ==

I've added a link to the first page of Rampage allowing readers to skip forward a bit.  The reason for this is that the story now is getting to be a bit long and seems to have developed into two seperate parts.  There's part I (Brandon/Valerie/mother) and part II (Kaya/Samantha) with only one link connecting the two.  I just thought it would help people if they've already read the older bits.  If you don't like the idea, feel free to remove the link.  Thanks.

== Creating A Custom Template ==
+
Hey platypus. You know my story, [[13 years]]. While it may not be a CYOA, I don't know where else to put it. So even though it doesn't belong here, can I continue doing it? PLEEASSSE? With a cherry on top(lol)?--[[User:Blablob|Blablob]] 06:25, 17 October 2009 (PDT)
-
In some of the articles, I saw some custom-made templates with different names given to them. Could you perhaps teach me on how to create my own custom template? I don't want anything fancy, really. I want something like the 'Status' template you posted on the [[Main Page]], with the title, "Status" changed to "Digimon Status" instead. Do you think you could help me with that? =)
+
Okay, well about the [[13 years]] topic, I'll fix it tomorrow. I will add choices instead, so no worries.--[[User:Blablob|Blablob]] 17:00, 17 October 2009 (PDT)

*Thanks, Platypus. Your advice helped a lot.

Is there a way to tell when a story was last added to?  I want to do a bit of maintenance and move some stories into the Pit of Abandoned Stories, but unless I check every page, it's hard to tell if the story's been inactive since it was started last year, or if someone just added a page last Tuesday.

== Editing A Page Title ==
 
-
Okay, this is getting way annoying. I keep on finding myself having the need to edit some of the titles of my articles and I cannot do so as there is no such function. Thus, I have to keep on bothering you to delete my pages after I create new ones with changed titles but with the same contents to replace them. I am sure this is a little frustrating on your part, too.

I have started a [[Tutorial]].  If you want to give me a couple days, I can finish most of the pages myself (except for the video embedding.  I'm not even sure that's possible. I heard someone talk about it in a story though.), but there may be some topics I've overlooked.  If there are, would you please add them?  Would you also make sure the info I included is accurate?  Lastly, I'm not really sure where the appropriate place to put it would be. Right now it's residing in the G stories section.  Maybe you can find a good place for it. --[[User:Rawar|Rawar]] 22:46, 28 October 2009 (PDT)

Is there a way for me to edit the page titles at all? Or is it a doomed no-return path upon a page's creation? Thanks for your help again and I hope to hear from you soon.

* So, I'm guessing the 'redirect' function really doesn't work in this wiki? Because I tried putting <nowiki>#REDIRECT [[insert page title]]</nowiki> into the page I want to be deleted (using the preview, of course) and it doesn't work, so, I thought I might check with you if I'm doing something wrong here or my first assumption is correct.

== Reversion needed? ==

Looks like the main page may need to be reverted.  All the PG-13 stories found their way into the Quizzes section.  Looks like it's a job only a sysop can do.    --[[User:Rawar|Rawar]] 13:45, 30 October 2009 (PDT)

==Stories in the wrong Category?==
+
== What do you mean? ==
-
So, I've been working on Transylvanian Terror (which is in the Mature section) again, and it occurred to me that nothing in there is really R rated.  Definitely PG 13, but not R.  If you've read through a path or two, would you agree? That said, I don't feel comfortable moving it under a category entitled "Kid's stories", although the heading would indicate that PG 13 goes under there.  When I think "Kid" I think 7-9 year olds, and it's not a story for them. Would it be appropriate to either separate out PG and PG 13 or retitle the "Kids" stories?  There are several other stories in the "Mature" section that are definitely not R rated, but neither are they kid's stories. Examples are DARKNESS, World's End, and Jim's barbecue. Actually, maybe it'd be best to take the PG-13 criteria form the "Kids stories section" and give it to the "Mature" section.  What do you think?
+
When you posted me about me taking away catagories for my pages, I misunderstood you. Do you mean you want me to start putting them, or not deleting them? I'm not the one who's been getting rid of them. In fact, I wouldn't even know how. Please don't delete my pages.--[[User:Blablob|Blablob]] 13:10, 13 November 2009 (PST)

Also, has "Hunting again for Red October" been nominated for story of the week yet? If it hasn't, I totally nominate it.
+
what are you talking about? I never deleted it. Honostly! But, uh, yeah, I'll make sure I make catagories for my pages.--[[User:Blablob|Blablob]] 18:14, 13 November 2009 (PST)

After a little bit of thought, I've come to a decision. I'll be leaving the website. Er..I guess a better way to put is I won't be editing anymore. I used to do it all the time, but I just find it kind of boring now. So, yeah, see ya later, I guess.--[[User:Blablob|Blablob]] 16:15, 14 November 2009 (PST)

Since this page has become rather cluttered, I've moved old discussions to the archive page below. Feel free to leave new messages here. I'll get back to you ASAP!

[edit] Deletions Requested

In my efforts to make second person stories have choices only involving the protagonist, I have made three pages unnecessary:

Their content was rolled into the previous pages. --Torg 10:37, 15 October 2009 (PDT)

[edit] Please Contribute more!

You're probably the user that is on this site the most and are really creative, can you please contribute more to my story, "High School?"(Just not Gothic male or female please!)

Thanks--Gr1mm

EDIT: Hey, there is something I would like you to do on my High School story. the link is here: *"Um, well I thought we were going to....Well....You know....Do it...." you say nervously and embarassed. It's the ONLY thing (so far) that I would like you to do on goth. I chose you, because you're incredibly descriptive, you're good at writing all the sex and stuff, and you're pretty much one of the only trustworthy people on here. You can also edit any other page that branches off of that little page(if you know what I mean; I'm not good at explaining). I think it would be pretty cool if you used one of the props already in equipment. (it's in Bold Italic) And weird stuff could happen, like their eyeliner, or their lipstick smears and stuff. And if you want, Allison can use anything she has in her room (Use your imagination ;) ). And If it wouldn't bother you, you could do both points of view, from Jace's and Allison's point of view. It'll also show you what's already in her inventory. (Allison's point of view:*"Um, well I thought we were going to....Well....You know....Do it...." Jace asks nervously.)Please, if you get this, leave me a comment on my discussions page.

Thanks--Gr1mm

[edit] Hey Platypus

Hey platypus. You know my story, 13 years. While it may not be a CYOA, I don't know where else to put it. So even though it doesn't belong here, can I continue doing it? PLEEASSSE? With a cherry on top(lol)?--Blablob 06:25, 17 October 2009 (PDT)

Okay, well about the 13 years topic, I'll fix it tomorrow. I will add choices instead, so no worries.--Blablob 17:00, 17 October 2009 (PDT)
