I suggest a main thread-related directory with hyperlinks and short descriptions as the first post on the page. And then perhaps a few encyclopedia-style posts to round out the thread. I think that would be easier to navigate than to have everything in just one post. And I also suggest that whatever form the directory finally takes, that it not be more than one page (15 posts.)

Cobie, aren't we now on Year Six? Shouldn't that begin about the time of the Alt-ID rebellion? Or at least before Crisis on Earth-4?

Oops! Yup, you're right EDE! We definatley are on year six!
Year six effectively started when Reboot and SoM became leaders, so both the Alt ID Rebellion (Vee/Quis term) and Crisis on Earth-4 (I thinkk is established to be in the Vee/Quis term) don't count I think, but the Day Legion World stood still and Universe Aflame definately do!
I'll change it!

Miss T, the directory truly is an incredible piece of work.
This humble one basks in awe of your delightful presence, as he has since day 1 of your arrival here.

My sole suggestion, and it isn't a big deal either way:
dropping the quotes from Perfectra's signature would make the directory look tidier.
But as I said, no biggie either way.

Oh, and (although it should stay under "M"), it's " The Mainframe of the Reboot" And, since it's done alphabetically, the first post should contain links to all the letters. (as well as a link, rather than reference, to this thread) And finally, lock the thing will'ya? You CAN edit posts in locked threads. Seriously. Try it if you don't believe me.

I have no idead what Reboot is talking about. Any advisors or founders who'd like to edit in links to the letters, a link to the Discussion thread, and/or lock the thing, then it is fine with me. Just make sure to tell me how I can unlock to add info. Thanks

Thanks Just edit your inital post in the thread to read like this (stuff in the quote - use the Reply to get the code): And edit the bit for my thread to read: The Mainframe of the Reboot, estate owned and operated by LMBer Reboot (formerly called Sanity or Madness?) and built upon the site of the former GovernMental Building. It is described as "a tall spire, gleaming green with blue energy crackling through the windows. At its top hovers a sphere of purest white. Around the base, many and sundry buildings have been constructed, to be elaborated upon later, as well as a green space of trees and grass. And a moat of purest water encircles the new complex." , but leave it in the "M" post The rest is for a mod to do.

Miss T? GREAT job on the new, seperate directory! I love all the work you've put into it.
If people want links in there bad enough (I think it would neat-o), let me know if you need any help. I've got some free time today and can dig up some of the older topics.

I cut & pasted Reboot's format but it didn't come up highlighted/hyperlinked as his is. I inserted and that didn't fix it. I inserted and that didn't work either. On a different subject, but a question for advisors or founders, I notice that under Options it asks if you'd like your sig showing in your post. If you uncheck the box so as to NOT show your sig, does that mean that your sig will not show on THAT POST ONLY or do all of your posts now not show your sig?

Miss T - hit Reply on my post, and copy from the Reply box, not from the post itself!

If you uncheck the box so as to NOT show your sig, does that mean that your sig will not show on THAT POST ONLY or do all of your posts now not show your sig? If you do it from the Full Reply form (there's no box on the Quick Reply), just for that post. If you do it from your Profile, it's all your posts (with that ID )

Okay, cool, thanks for talking me throught it, Reboot. I also amended your entry to read: Mainframe of the Reboot, The I prefer listing the article at the end of the phrase and have done so with all applicable entries. Hope it suffices!

GREAT job so far, Miss T!
When I get the chance to remember more and write them up, I'll post them here for you, and you can add them at your leisure.
You've inspired me to finally write my LMB Continuity timeline and written history!
You space-rawk!

Dear heart, this is GREAT. I'm going to start working on the hyperlinks after I get back from lunch with my dad and an entry for "Kid Prime's Room," as well as the yet-unnamed seat of government (actually, I've selected one, but I have to write up the post for it.) Future, if you have the time today, by all means I'd love for you to tag-team the hyperlink work with me!

Cool beans, Kippers! I'm reworking entries on the Beacon, La Nouveau Boutique De Fabulosite, and STU's Study. Plus, I've got more LMB Adventures to add. Also, I'm going to add new stuff like Lothian Woods etc. I look forward to your entries, Kip. And I'd like someone to volunteer to write an entry for Thora's Throneroom and Flogging Chamber. Also an entry on the Statue of Thora, explaining her rebelliousness would be keen.

Just a heads up to everyone, especially Miss T, that I'm going to start hyperlinking some things today. I don't have time to do everything, but hopefully this way we can see if the links look good in the entries or not.

I like the Table of Contents links in the first post, but I think they might look better running horizontally across the page (with spacing in between each letter so they don't run together) rather than stretching all the way down the screen like they do now. That way you don't have to scroll down a page before you start to get to the first actual entries.
Just a thought.

Miss T, out of curiousity, which LMB Adventures are you adding? I have a whole SLEW of others from the early years, but I wasn't sure if I should fill up the diretory with such a large amount.
Did someone else give them to you? If so, I'll hold off on posting the new ones until I see what you've got, so I don't clutter this thread with stuff already done.
And the hyperlinks will make the main thread even kewler!

No, Cobie, I'm speaking of the LMB Adventures that you already posted me. I've added the Y1-Y4 and I'm working on the entries for Y5-Y6 now. Actually, I'm a tad unsure of the boundaries for an LMB Adventure anyways. I thought they were Onevisions and Tag Teams but the Dark STU Saga happened as a group effort on the MMB. Does that mean that my attempt to Overthrow you and EDE could be considered an Adventure? So don't hold anything back Cobie. I can take all you dish out. ---------- Lou I tried to list the ABCs horizontally but it screwed up the code and I'm too frustrated to keep at it. Perhaps Reboot will arrange the links horizontally and I can cut & paste it into the post. I agree with you that it would improve the aesthetics. And Lou I'm surprised you haven't added any entries. You're an "old fogey with a good memory" like Cobie, aren't you?
