Current Usage of How to play a Role

Postby Money » Tue Mar 12, 2013 6:31 pm

So I was just browsing the wiki and stumbled across the How to play a role section. I then proceeded to have an immediate flash back of how I used to read that section religiously when I first began to play. Now I'm wondering how often people read the how to play a role section, it can be a great resource but has remained virtually static since I started to play.

It's a help for new players, if you have no idea what to do, or just need some ideas to develop a character.

The wiki is overall extremely helpful, even for older players, but there are a lot of places that could use updating, I see old information here and there and other places that lack hard numbers and other details...it's a lot of work keeping track of it all, I imagine.

The 'Role' section does have a lot of good tips, but Money, you could always try overhauling or adding to it yourself if you think it's missing something.

Or you could just update when you see something out of date. :)
If only just by adding the {{Incomplete}} tag after the InterwikiLink tag at the top of the article.

Here is the manual for the Incomplete tag: http://wiki.cantr.net/index.php/Template:Incomplete

I was thinking of adding a few new articles detailing things like librarian, writer or prophet, some roles that are a little less concrete but just as rewarding as town leader

Nine and a half years and I'd never seen that section! Helped me even now though. Would recomend anyone that hasn't to have a look through it.
