- Format your glitch in the following manner. Poorly formatted glitches are subject to deletion.
From the game [[Name of the game]] for the [[Name of the system]].

Give as detailed of a description as possible. Try to avoid colloquialisms or first person. (Insert four spaces) Submitted by: [[Your name/screenname]] OR Taken with permission from [http://URL Title]
