Notice for requesters:
I seem to be the only one who's filling requests at this point so, I guess I'll put this announcement here.
Compendium UsersFor those who ARE using the compendium, please PM, email or just leave me a message on the compendium thread concerning things they'd like that they feel is important, errors or other difficulties. I'd like to see the thing used on BOTH ends, and more than just me reading it back. Of course, it'd be nice if I saw other people fill in requests too. *Hint hint*
Sometimes it seems trivial, but it's important that it's as accessible as I can make it. I've already asked someone to help me make a video into making a valid request.
It's not rocket science from what I'm told, but as you can guess, I'm a fan of accuracy. So let me know what improvements can be made.
There IS a incremental upgrade that was completed (Catalog 3, version 1.02), but it's not the biggest deal in the world - it's mostly tweaking although it does clarify stage coding (in case you didn't know - there's only actually 4 valid stages for quintets. They have been marked in version 1.02.)
Catalog 4 requests:I request that all requests pertaining to catalog 4 be held off for just long enough for me to build Catalog 4 into the compendium. One crevat though - Catalog 4's bonus item is NOT confirmed as part of the Compendium revision yet, but I have no idea if it'll let me have it until I spend all my MS points and find out.
Of course, this will mean you'll have to pick up the updated compendium, but hey, up to date information is good right?
Would a 24 hours from release (Namely 24 hours from 10:00pm 6/1 Tokyo Time) be too much time to ask for before requesting Catalog 4 items? I will post when the compendium is uploaded and revised with as many (hopefully all) of Catalog 4's equipment. Then you can codify and go nuts.
Doing so beforehand will probably not have me fill anything anyway, since I'll be busy... updating the compendium.
That stupid hamster:(Yes, due to my calculations, I'm allocating this a unique section.)
I really should set up a donation thing to help me get that stupid hamster though to fully notate the compendium though, although I suspect no one cares. (I swear it's going to be some long running joke.)
Anyone who DOES throw me enough MS points via a JP points card to close the hamster (1500 points) I'll probably kiss, or something, or at least get special thanks and most likely preferental treatment for a while.
For anyone NOT using the compendium:I will apologise, but I'm going to pass you over as official policy unless I've got the time.
This is due to time reasons - I'm currently two days down due to a ISP line fault and uploading like mad what ones I DID take. These things take 1hr + to upload (And another 15-20 mins to process for upload) for each 2min 15s, and I also have other demands on the line, namely, I do work for Siliconera (And have a live playtest coming up) and simply put, you guys don't pay me for the time I put in here.
I simply don't really have all that much time to research and look your particular setup up to ensure that your request IS what you described it as.
Doubly so if you seem you don't know what you want. I clock between 20-40 hours a WEEK doing im@s stuff, and sorry to say, I can only help you so far. I'm quite open to filling requests of all kinds, but I haven't the time to question, guess or come up with a request you really should know you want.
I can field questions about the compendium and I'll look into tools to make it easier (At both ends), but I simply cannot hold your hand all the way through.
You are free to try your luck with someone else, but this is my official reply.
Thank you for your attention.
