==== Changed Zendo pic ====
 
I see you uploaded a new [[:File:Pic76724.jpg|:Image:Pic76724.jpg]]. What's changed about it? -- [[User:Rootbeer|Rootbeer]] 12:01, 4 May 2005 (GMT)
 
: I adjusted the white point, exposure, and gamma to make it brighter and more clear. Look at these side by side for comparison: [http://icehousegames.org/wiki/images/archive/6/6f/20050504034710%21Pic76724.jpg the old image], [http[:File://icehousegames.org/wiki/images/6/6f/Pic76724.jpg |the new image]]. The problem is, the wiki seems to cache the scaled down version of the image, so changing the image doesn't change how it looks on a lot of pages unless you change the size of the scaled down image (that's why I tweaked the size on the main page). If you know of a way to clear the image cache, please let me know. — [[User:Lambda|Lambda]] 16:52, 4 May 2005 (GMT)
 
: I'm not 100% sure that the wiki was doing the caching. Could your browser (or something else along the line) be doing it? I think I'm seeing the new image everywhere (like [[Main Page/Sandbox]]), not only where you changed the scale. -- [[User:Rootbeer|Rootbeer]] 17:20, 4 May 2005 (GMT)

==== Spivak Pronouns ====
Hi Lambda! You had asked me about Spivak pronouns in my web page. At one time I was interested in something called the Atlantis Project, a proposed new country project (called Oceania) to be built on floating platforms in the ocean. The project has been defunct for several years, but its Laws and Constitution use those pronouns which is where I picked up the habit. I have played in a couple of games of Nomic, but not in any of the major ones; one of those was in fact an Icehouse nomic called Nomice, which you would (sadly) need to use the Wayback Machine to read about. -- [[User:Chris Goodwin|Chris Goodwin]] 16:22, 6 August 2007 (EDT)
 
==== Branches & Twigs & Thorns ====
Hi Brian, if there is a different way to exchange messages, please let me know. Thanks for activating my account.
Also, please check out my contribution in the Discussion page of BTT. The game is quite intriguing. I also made multiplayer boards suitable to play BTT on. You can download them [http://looneylabs.ning.com/forum/topics/new-multiplayer-boards here]. If you know a better place to share these boards, please suggest . . . -- [[User:Cuc|Cuc]] ([[User talk:Cuc|talk]]) 21:31, 14 April 2017 (PDT)
Have you played BTT recently? In the Ning archives, I explain the "fair" rule. Interestingly, for 2 players, it doesn't actually matter which rule you use, they result in the same winner/loser. But in multiplayer-games it's important. However, for BTT, there is an obvious Kingmaker problem, and it won't be my favorite multiplayer game. BTT is one of my favorites, since it is a territory control game with some similarities to Go. You gain more points in the areas you control; it allows you to play there while earning more points than if you branched off an opponent's mid. Etc.
