Adding characters - att Rashi, Ama & Taei

[Elgee]

Taei, Rashi & Ama, please post here whether or not you'll be able to help me to add the characters to the new database.

 

To start off, let's add active members and their characters first. Once that's done, we can add inactive members.

 

I've made a list of Handles and their Characters at the bios email documents. Let's each take a letter of the alphabet, and keep rotating them till they're done. What I mean is, I'll start with handles beginning with A (and all their characters). Rashi takes B's, Ama C's and Taei D's, then once I'm done with A's I'll take E's, and so we'll keep leapfrogging. That is, IF all 3 of you can help. If you can't, just post here please and we'll re-organise. If anyone runs straight through all "her" letters of the alphabet, and someone else is struggling, you can post here you'll do Q's, or whatever.

 

The data we have to add is spread all over, so you're going to have to hunt it down. Most of it is in the admin end of the site, url: http://whitetower.al...n.com/wp-admin/

 

Go down to pages, click on pageMash below that, then scroll down the list on the right hand side till you get to One Power and You. You should find all the "old" tables there. Click on the >> next to the table, then on edit, then on VISUAL. That should bring up something that looks like the old tables. If it doesn't, you're in HTML - get the heck outa there :P and for the Light's sake, DON'T EDIT anything in there!

 

Please make sure the data you enter is ACCURATE, so copy and paste from the original Bios and cross check with the google docs Lil Book that the OP scores you find in the site tables correspond to those originally assigned from the Lil Book.

 

Please let me know if there's any snags, or you can come up with a better way to do this.

Yep honey i can help :)

[Elgee]

Woot! Rashi's already told me she will too, so that's at least 3 of us to share the workload.

[Matalina]

If you view the page (click the view page button) you own't have to worry about editting the page. I'm not sure if you can view from the pageMash page, but you can after you hit edit.

Yeah I can help...the computer at reception isn't working at work so I'll have to have someone else sitting there to get to it tomorrow. *laughs* but i'll do what I can. :)

[Amadine]

Elgs, can you PM or IM me the password for the website please - i've lost in along with everything else off my old harddrive *cries*

[Elgee]

Done

[Elgee]

Ok this is not going to work ... I think first let's add some of the data to the google doc I made, otherwise each of us are going to have to have multiple tabs open just to add 1 character.

 

I'll start by adding the OP scores and breakdowns.

 

The following still needs to be done:

 

find the correct wiki links to the bios and add that to the doc

email addresses

talent

dream score

black or not

correct ages (might need to hunt through Accepted interviews)

[Rasheta Ardashir]

I can find the Wiki links and black or not. *laughs* I'm posting what I'll do so I don't end up doing multiple things or we all end up doing that.

[Matalina]

Why don't you ask your members to do the work for you? I could make a form that could do all the work for you email it to your staff account and then you can check it to make sure things like op aren't being changed.

 

A link to the wiki bio (and/or the forum bio depending on if they are there.

OP break down

Requirements links and the like

bonds etc.

[Elgee]

Because the members are lazy gits who couldn't even be arsed to post their bondeds' names when Rashi asked for it? Lol ... we'll be sitting here till 2012 if we wait for them.

 

But Rashi, if you could post a reminder at the Bonds thread asking people to PLEASE give the details and explain that we need it asap for the database? Also, thanks for doing the wiki links, Rashi - just make sure that it's from the correct wiki site.

 

I'll do Black or not.

[Amadine]

I'll start going through Accepted Interviews to find MTL ages and emails. :)

[Elgee]

Thanks, Ama

[Amadine]

DONE! I'll start looking through OP breakdowns tomorrow night :D

[Rasheta Ardashir]

I haven't had a chance to get to the Wiki's yet. I'm on it though guys I was SWAMPED yesterday at work. I'm hoping today will allow me to get some of it done. *crosses fingers* Yeah Elgee I'll post about bondings now. I forgot Dante was my warder because he's never here so I need to add him *whistles innocently at forgetting her warder*

 

Edit: Elgee please post yourself about who your bonded too. ;)

 

Also This thread may be helpful on getting e-mails and such from the more or less active members.

[Elgee]

Lol ... I'd entered them into the test site, forgetting that they would not be transferred over.

[Rasheta Ardashir]

Black Ajah done!

 

I hope I did that right the google doc you wanted was the Handles/Characters one right? I added black to the Ajah's of those who were members of the BA in that doc. *crosses fingers* I hope I did that correctly.

[Elgee]

I don't see anything added to the Black column, apart from the 2 I did. If you sign into the bios email, click on documents, open the one that should be at the top (Handles and Characters - 2011 Jan). Here's the link: https://spreadsheets...=en&pli=1#gid=0

 

Is that the one you entered it in? If so, did you save the doc before closing?

[Amadine]

Ages are almost all done, just a couple of new ones to look up, email addresses are being added as people respond to the emails i sent out.

 

I'll start adding bio links from the bottom up Rashi and meet you halfway :) MWAH!

[Rasheta Ardashir]

I think that's the one...*sigh* I'll check it again and see if I did save it and all that. I'll get to it at work and okay Ama. *laughs*

 

Don't work too hard Ama I've got three hours today where i'm doing nothing waiting for a meeting at work to start so I can get a lot done in that time. LOL

[Elgee]

I've added extra columns at the end for the Bonded details. I'll add mine in there, Rashi, and you can add those who've posted in the thread you made.

[Rasheta Ardashir]

So got the bonding done and the Wiki bios, as well as the BA. I couldn't find several bios so the blanks mean I can't find them on the Wiki. :(

[Amadine]

I'm on holidays from work at the moment Rashi, so it's all good - i have more time on my hands til monday than both of you *hugs*

[Amadine]

I started on the OP breakdowns Elgs, double-checked scores against the Lil Novice book and then added up the scores according to the charts. If i have left it blanked it needs to be re-checked by you. If i was unsure for any reason i left it blank.

[Matalina]

Just an FYI I added Kate to the list just to make sure things were working. As far as I know everything is correct. But she is already in there.
