Soddball Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Ideally, when someone downloads a scenario, I'd like them to receive a reminder in their email box to get them to review it, say a month after they downloaded it. Some of my scenarios at the depot had 2,000 downloads and only 1 or 2 reviews. Perhaps they sucked, but I'll never know because they weren't reviewed. I think just a reminder would be enough to get some people to review. Maybe the email could include a form which they can fill in and email straight back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alsatian Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Make it so. If you ever need data entry slaves, include me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Originally posted by Alsatian: Make it so. If you ever need data entry slaves, include me. Thanks, appreciate it! If anybody knows or wants to learn WebDNA, let me know and I'll put you to work. I started working on the "Scenario Card" process, where a scenario's details can be easily exported from TPG and then imported into TSD. Oh yes, also as I posted at TPG, I'm open for any submissions of graphics or page template design for the site. Draw it up in Photoshop, PSP, MS Paint or whatever graphics program that you use and send it to me at: cmbb@garykrockover.com If I get enough (any?) submissions, I'll put those plus whatever I come up with on my site for viewing and then we can all take a vote on it. Otherwise, you only get whatever I come up with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWB Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Sounds great. One suggestion which I think has been very effective over at B&T: Add a category/tagging system. And allow searches on that. For example, Joe visits B&T. He wants to play something TCP with Bob which has mechanized forces. So he searches for battles that have two tags: TCP and Mechanized forces. If properly structured this can be a very handy and extensibile system. GJK, drop me an email for full technobabble . . . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already have the "Mechanized Forces" available for scenario searches on TPG (under Allies forces type and Axis forces type), so that will be available at TSD (among many other variables). The TCP thing I have tied in via a search for "Best played as (Axis vs AI, Allies vs AI, two player)". So I think that I have that covered already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJK Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 It's ready when it's ready, and not a moment before™ But I think that I can safely say that it will be ready before CMx2 is released. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 And when is CMx2 released, uhm I mean, ready™? Huh? Can't tell that, wise guy?!? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Is it done NOW, GJK you bastard? You dumb, over-muscled, car-wrecking, blintz-eating steroidheaded bastard? If you want to host my wonderful scenarios, you'll have to beg me, first. :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Russian Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Really, Dorosh actually made a scenario in 3 years? :eek: I wonder how I missed it? It must have been small... I'll do what I can to help as always GJK. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul AU Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 What "easytarget" said. Also I agree that "1. Allow sorting the scenarios by "best played as" should be top of the search tree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
