My hope was that over time they would get developed.
And I'm against it; I put way to much time into those pages to have them deleted.

I'm perfectly willing to put them all together, and I'll be copying it straight from your work, Frank, so it wouldn't have been a lost cause.
I'm going to consolidate the Numbered Diesels page, at least, so that you can see what I mean.

Actually, I agree with Frank; too much unnecessary trouble and a waste of all our progress.

Thinking it over, yeah, it might be a smart way to keep it like it is.

Whoa... no. I took one at the wiki, and it looks way off. The ad to the side is the big problem. The way I had it set wouldn't bother it, but as it is... no. I'm switching it back until we can figure out a better way.

Sorry D-11, it was an experiment I wanted to do- would we get more people interested if the first thing they saw was an overview of 3WSR, rather than a series of quick links that didn't have much context (or a Thomas connection)
My thought is- if the first thing they see is Thomas related, and offers a brief explanation, then we can get more people interested because that is the point people can relate to right away.

Yeah, I understand what you're saying. That's the main reason that I put up "A Word From The Bronze Mage", it's an introduction to 3WSR.

That's just it- he does not really introduce the 3WSR as a whole; only the VEC. That's why we at least need something Thomas-related towards the top. I suppose for the time being we can edit it to be a more comprehensive introduction.

Here, let's compromise. I'll add a bit to the Bronze Mage's speech that gives more of an introduction to 3WSR as a whole.

Works for me- let me just make a slight edit

Ok, got it.
So on the wiki- I've given some background to the Indian, Chinese, German and South African factions, combining real history to make things interesting. Any thoughts on it guys?

I think it looks great. I never realized there were German Colormen!

yes, there are several factions, we know thanks to Toz.
I've just elaborated on them since we only have a name.

Hey guys, I'm going to try to set up character profiles for the engines of the next several days. Could you give me a list of who's been featured in 3WSR?
|

Post by Toz76 on Mar 31, 2016 18:28:11 GMT -5
I can list the engines we introduced:
St. Simon Lucifer Beezlebub Quicksilver River Tid Puffa TGC's engines (one was named Chance, but I can't remember the rest) Erin and Sierra Jack (look at about page 30 of the old thread... He had a chainsaw or something...)
I think there were more, this is what I remember.

Thanks Toz; I also need the ones that were already in the Sudrian Universe, though, too.

Post by frankthetriviaman on Mar 31, 2016 19:41:49 GMT -5
Start with the core eleven:
Thomas Edward Henry Gordon James Percy Toby Duck Donald Douglas Oliver
Honestly, the TTTE wikia already has great pages on the Sudrian stuff, so my thought was we'd just link there as necessary.

Basically, I won't be creating pages for every single engine, I'll just be making a few pages with multiple engine, i.e. steam, diesel, small railway, etc. It'll have some stuff from the Thomas universe, and some stuff from the 3WSR Universe.

Very well. Toz76I've created small backstories for some of the international Colorfolk; what are your thoughts on them?

They're great!
