Title: Total War - story profile.
Post by: DavidXBrunt on 17 November, 2004, 08:58:09 PM
For Wake, and anyone else who gives a damn really.

Should Total War, the organisation, have a profile of their own? What with this tale, 'Terror' and the 'America' stories they've featured in at least 4 stories so far.

Secondly Hershey is in the current tale but not listed in the linked profiles but 'Low Life' is and I was wondering why. Amee Nixon isn't in this story but departmental head Hollister (?) is. Would it be appropriate to give the Wally Squad a profile and link in stories that have a significant Wally presence in them? Just wondering.

Anyway, the profile section just keeps getting better and better and the updates are appreciated. It's on it's way to being a really usefull tool for finding specific elements or characters.

What do people think about having story notes that link paired stories together, so that when people look at one profile they can see where to look next? I know that Wake would need to be helped with finding these but for instance when reading some back issues of the Meg there was a story about Bill Clinton that looks like it may be picked up later. Notes on the profile telling me where the sequal is would help. I've stopped making sense, haven't I?

No. Your ideas are all good. I would really like to see them implemented.

Building on that idea, would it be feasible/worthwhile making the profiles work along the lines of the Databank from www.starwars.com?

It's been a long time since The A-Z of Judge Dredd, and I wants my fix of geekery!

Amee Nixon is visible in the story. ukdane spotted her and I agreed with him.

Is 'Total War' referred to by name in both America stories and Terror? Is so, I'll create a profile page for it.

I missed adding Hershey and will add her anon.

Hollister could do with a profile page. What has she been in?

Sequels should be findable if I create profile pages for the characters who appear in both.

Cheers,

Wake

These ones, I think.

Definately has Nixon's broken nose, but it's a bit difficult to tell if she has a bionic arm...

Oh, yeah I remember seeing that and thinking she was Aimee, but I dismissed it. Can't remember why now though...
