Good job with the high level farming. For some reason, I'd usually mess up doing "combina..." by hand. *sigh* if only rounds weren't limited to 30, then we coulda had a general formula for all possible cases as rounds approached infinity (and made a good deal more of meat, eh?). Anyways, your work is appreciated :)--Dehstil (t|c) 16:40, 23 June 2006 (CDT)
Thanks, it gives me something to do. Ah, summer... Donations to cheese_is_good are of course welcome (please? Heh heh).Johnthescavenger 17:07, 23 June 2006 (CDT)
- I just typed "The Shore" into the search box and hit "go"; it brought me to the correct page, so I deleted your unnescesary redirect. Always try this test before creating redirects. ;) --Dehstil (t|c) 00:51, 5 September 2006 (CDT)
- But it doesn't work if you type it into the address bar, which I do. Perhaps it's a bad habit/stupid idea/both, but yeah. Is it bad to have usually-unnecessary redirects? They don't do any harm (no one would type in "The Shore" looking for "The Goblin King", or anything), and I doubt if they take up any significant amount of space, so... whatever.--Johnthescavenger 13:44, 5 September 2006 (CDT)
- If every page had 3 versions of capitalization redirects, it would take a bit less then 3 times as much work for the server to look up a page (not really, but eh). Its not really that bad since we're not lagging out for anything like that, but it we need to create those redirects simply for ease of http address guessing then we'd need to balloon the number of pages thusly for every page. :\ Consensus should probably occur before any more redirects are made though.--Dehstil (t|c) 18:26, 9 September 2006 (CDT)
- Oh, sorry. Ooooops. I'll stop doing that, then. And maybe go through the ones I've already made and delete the unnecessities (I like making weird forms of words)...--Johnthescavenger 21:58, 9 September 2006 (CDT)
