Time to get this party started... (again...)
-
@bilal If it's "just going to be based on the game", then I would definitely add the "Wired for War" part. How many games are there with "Machines" in it? Also, just as a general way of classifying the game, because "Machines" on itsself is kinda... broad and covers many (unrelated) topics...
My 2 cents.
Also HOLY SHIT JUDAS WHAT UP DAWG! Awesome to have you back ^^
-
@StonerHate
Because the game is called Machines, not Wired for War. If the wiki is called "Wired For War" wiki, that implies that it's about the website, and includes content for machines (Which would be a perfect name in my opinion if that is the intent for the wiki). I'm talking about semantics to ensure clarity of what the subject is, not just what would sound nice.P.S.: What do you mean add the wired for war part? I meant "Wired For War Wiki" vs "Machines Wiki."
-
@bilal Know what, I'll throw my own suggestion here.
Machines: Wired for War and Machines: Wired for War Ultimate Wiki
The best source of knowledge 'bout silicon machines!
-
Wired for War sounds better in my opinion. Plus it's what this site is called.
I'm for Wired for War ;D
-
Like I said, majority vote is cool, and it seems most people would prefer wfw anyway. Plus I was probably being too persnickety about something simple. I would love to have it up though because there is some information I would prefer to store there rather than in google docs etc.
-
@bilal I meant, take "Machines: Wired for War" as a whole. Not just "Machines". Not just "Wired For War".
"Machines: Wired for War". The entire thing. After all, the "Wired for War" IS a part of the name. No? Also, every other game-Wiki, in my experience, always has the entire name in their Wiki-name =)
-
@StonerHate No, wired for war is not part of the name AFAIK.
-
@bilal Oh, well. Damn. Seems like you're right. All this time, I thought it was ^^ Then I can understand your point. But still. "Machines: Wired for War" sounds fine by me.
Actually, it doesn't really matter all that much, in hindsight =P
-
@StonerHate
Haha, yeah agreed. -
Alright guys I'll get a wiki running soon. Trying to find something more minimalist than MediaWiki... Open to suggestions.
-
I looked through most of the wikis listed on this wikipedia page. Most of them looked really dated. Good luck finding something better than MediaWiki.
-
This might cause some confusion: http://wiredforwar.pwsinger.com/
I personally prefer "MACHINES: WIRED FOR WAR". -

Well, seems like I'm not the only one who types in "Wired for War" and gets this book on a plate.
I guess the game is still a lot older than this book. But, well... -
Sorry Sorry Sorry! Oh crap... and here I go again... Life is just way to demanding...lol
Anyhow, judging by the lack of recent postings Im not the only one with a mad schedule...
On my behalf tho, since my last post I have been hospitalized for a weirdass blood infection and had to recover from it, after that had to work my ass off to get up to speed with work again... Also me and the Mrs have been through a rough patch sort a...So whats up?

So whats up?
Lots of concepts and discussions on how OpenMachines could look like. Besides, a few things uploaded, @bilal being busy, @Pisarz posting a lot of stuff and... uh, @Encrypted, that is me, posting a lot of stuff.
Oh, and killer bunnies didn't return yet. We are somehow able to keep them at bay.
Somehow.
BEHOLD THE POWER OF BETA-KAROTEN!yay.gorilla

@TheOriginalFoxx
Welcome back! Sorry to hear about your issues.Anyway, as @Encrypted said I'm pretty busy right now, but hopefully will be doing more machines 'stuff' soon.
I also recently bought a copy of machines:
:)
Also would like to have the wiki up, but we're going through a Hayden Hiatus atm (HH for short? haha). I guess I'll shoot him an email.
-
Lol allright.
Look wut I found!
In Semi mint condition too!
-
@TheOriginalFoxx
"Requires 3D Accelerator"Now I get why it's so old.
It was one of the first games that used 3D technology, anyway!yay.gorilla
-
Heheheh yup old skool heh
-
Woah. I thought this place was gone forever.
