h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I stumbled across this in the recent flurry of Flea Market dumpings.

Got it. That entry is now the first in the Computer Games section on the games page.

Should I add AGG/GAG login name as a creator of the games page, or just login as AGG/GAG and make it a new entry there, so it can be modified by all Popeye chucklers who want to add to it? Whichever y'all prefer is fine by me.

[Darn those Southern folk. "Y'all" really is a useful contraction with no smooth Yankee equivalent.]

See the 'looks good' thread for more, but over the weekend I will lift both your special issue and respository pages to AggGag Entries.

Save your originals for the time being because I plan to make a few small adjustments in formatting which you may or may not approve. For one thing I want to turn your 'games page logo' thingy into a link button for use in our regular future issues. I may even go back and add it to past issues in the Archive one rainy day.

I'll be 'hiding' the AggGag versions for a while so don't look until I report further in the 'looks good' thread.

Why didn't I think of that? The logo link is a great idea, although I imagine it will turn into 20 little links from each letter in the logo, instead of one big link. But we'll see.

Should the Games Repository use all the intros/teasers, or should it be more of a list? After I dumped a lot of those links onto the Repository, I wrote some intros for the three to use in AGG/GAG. We could go back and put the same intro/teasers on the Repository, but would that make the Repository look cluttered after a few weeks, with more and more links getting intros spelled out in future AGG/GAG issues?

Let me know what you think.

Did that make any sense? Aaaaugh! I'll come back tomorrow and try to explain that more clearly.

Here's another one that popped up today.

"Warcraft - the history of the best-selling game serie"

Note the strange spelling of 'serie' not just once but consistently.

Hmmm. If this entry is good, I might not just link it from the Games page, but also go out and buy it. By the time a computer game is on Whatevercraft III, they've usually marked the original Whatevercraft I down to my price range. I keep on the cutting edge of 1998.
