Seeing a lot of work going in to that - very cool.
Something that might be useful is a list of the various gates - maybe even some sort of 'gate bubble map'.
I've been hearing some players stating they'd lost track of where some of the gates were - especially since they've gotten hold of the cards.
I suspect they (as well as players which can't make Trumps) could use the information as to where the multitude of gates within the campaign are.

Helping a little with the DORA pages. I'll be careful to try and not mess up what you're adding, Sheila. It's a great opportunity to mess with the other PC's until they feel like making final edits. Mua ha.

Some of those DORA profiles are priceless.

Just finished in-putting the Interrealm Boards back log! So now it will just be moving any new posts over to the wiki if they have pertinent info to stay current. Accurate info can be pulled from the Notes sections up to the the higher parts of the page if it's confirmed. I'd like the "notes" to all remain as a way to trace the info and check it's date. "Gates" was one of my first pages, I have down what I found through boards and memory, it ain't pretty, yet, or complete, and might not be accurate, but it's there to build. A "Clem's Barbershop" list is in a similar state, and I want a sewer list as well. Each realm's page (first ones might be missing or if I didn't start it) has a Magic/Tech Level, Clem's, Sewer, Gates status right at the top. Then Items of Interest, People of Interest, Places of Interest, then Notes as "headings". I expect there to be lots more realm specific heading as it progresses. Didn't deal with Red Carpet and Gotham situation yet. Pete started Red Carpet, so I put "notes" for Gotham all under Batman to safe keep for later. Jaypay - looking shiny over there and thanks for the strike-throughs. @everyone - Don't delete the notes please and have at any of it as far as I'm concerned. Other pages to house our bigger ideas are "Economics of Realms" and "GUT Conjecture"

I'll sort them out/format them over the next few days so that it's all easy to read and organised. Good job, Sheila!

Started tidying it up a bit. I'll fix up the Realms category fully later.

Just added "Gotham San Angeles 1960" as its own realm. Info for MIB Agents is currently under "Red Phone" Let me know if you are looking for certain subjects, until then I'll be muttering "the preciousss" and tidying content.

Wasn't there already a page for Gotham? Can't remember. Might not have been. In any event, we should probably try to stick to one name for a zone. Gotham is both a zone and a place within the zone. Any ideas?
I'm thinking just having the zone called Gotham and then having Gotham City be a place of interest inside the zone. I'll have a look later.

Welcome to Any Time, Any Where WikiEdit This is where all DORAs can add and edit things they know about the world in order to better organize things and help find important information more easily.
On this page, could someone put up a brief synopsis of the game that people who don't know what is going on and see the wiki can read it and have a clue?
THANK YOU.

She even included an "Items for sale by Raslen Rad" section on the economics page. Warms me heart. *single tear*

Any ideas? I'm thinking just having the zone called Gotham and then having Gotham City be a place of interest inside the zone. I'll have a look later. I was focusing on finishing info-dump before the threads started to jump around, but I have given thought to organizing among other things. Standardization is going to be interesting since everyone has their own names for things, the wiki shall try its best, but there will need to be "redirects" set up. And hopefully some opinions from those whom have been navigating the 'verse for a while. I imagine that Logan already has a system and if he wants to tell us what that is, no one has to read the following because we'll go with his. The Following: From what I was looking at Pete's posts, it seems he has a system for naming cities by (Realm) (real Physical Location on globe if there is one) (year or defining event like Post Apocalyptic) to keep things specific which equals more useful. People can still use shorthand, but it offers a non ambiguous terminology. So, if we apply that; Gothic San Angeles (doesn't have date, yet) tells us what realm and where on the globe Gotham San Angeles 1960 - tells us realm, same location, year locals are accustomed to. (or we could call it Gotham San Angeles Post-AI, if that is more helpful, but is more spoiler) Red Carpet San Angeles 2020 (or Active-AI to match) - same spot on globe, different rules You can tell right by the name Gothic San Angeles how to get to a potential city of Gothic Hong Kong. You know the rules of the realm and its position in its timeline/development. Handy nomenclature for 5D traveling. Gotham City is cool and could be a nickname redirect because others might try to search with it. Need more input from others for lots of these relationships; like Night City as a realm or Cyberpunk. Are we in Hong Kong when we usually go there or is it a place not on a map like Genovia where geography doesn't match up to our globe. which will need to revamped a bit, but I don't personally know enough. Is Bug City in a Alien Post-apocalyptic realm? Part of the fun of the adventuring is trying to figure all that out, they will be always shifting around. Therefore, I think that if a realm changes drastically its page should be preserved and a new realm name and page is necessary (for 1. prosperity 2.in case it reverts 3. less work updating 4.if ever a way to access older versions is discovered, like straight-up time travel). A new heading of "history" can be added on pages to make these relationships more clear with handy cross reference links. So, there is a city of Red Carpet San Angeles 2020 and one of Gotham San Angeles 1960, separate rules, separate pages. Pete did Red Carpet and some others, so I've only worn museum gloves when touching them so far. Red Carpet San Angeles 2020 - we're on the Handy Show, mansion, 2020 tech, AIs Gotham San Angeles 1960 - wear superhero disguises, no AIs, 1960 is top tech, Shadow Academy gates are severed The fact that one came from the other is cool, but especially to a new player it is more of an interesting footnote for "history" when you are trying to navigate one of them. Litmus test - if listeners/players wouldn't recognize it being the same place without being told, it's for practicality sake a new realm for the wiki. Burlington has had several invasions, but magic/tech levels and rules of realm have remained stable, same with MMO Land as far as I know. Beastkin is losing magic, but still has the same other rules and is identifiable. Time will tell....
