[UPDATE] www.PerplexCity.com 21st March 2006

Quote:
These updates are now live as of 12:01 GMT on Tuesday 21st March 2006:

* Search: You can now search for players by username or full name or part thereof ('Find your friends' is located on the right-hand side bar when you are logged in, in the Tracked Players section)
* Bonus PXC Points: You can now see on a player's profile whether they have earned any Bonus Perplex Points (which should explain why Tally, etc are flying up the leaderboard)
* Tags: You can add tags to/ remove tags from your profile page, view other people's tags, view people with a particular tag, and see the Top 50 Tags
* All the countries should now have flags (Cayman Islands and Zaire weren't uploaded before)
* There is a downloads page, which contains many cool graphics including some hi-res wallpapers and an animated red-eyed Whipsmart cow avatar
* The leaderboard and profile pages now list age instead of DOB
* People walking on the roof should be shot

I'm pretty sure I've seen that shot of it before...in the Puzzle Magazine from the Starter Set.

What's a tag? Here's what thay say on the PXC forums:

Quote:
Tags: A tag is a word which helps to identify you as a player. Tags help you find players with whom you have something in common.

But I'm none the wiser. Is it like interests on livejournal? Any ideas?

tags are semantic labels you can apply to data that helps you search, among other things Smile So if I can add a "tag" to my profile that says "poetry" or "welsh," other people can search interests using those tags and find my profile.

One day I'll sit down with Scott and Nik_Doof and get them to let me tag the entire wiki Wink (which, in a sense, is already a collection of tags).

that a buffy quote?

anyway, back to the topic at hand, tag-ables of note are : syzygyirc for anyone who frequents the irc channel, ginger for your locals redheads anonymous, and stitchnbitch because every alternate reality country needs its own knitting (and associated needlecrafts) group.

handy hint: tag where you live so that other players in your city/area/state/country can find you!

rach =)

She isn't a scribe. Violet must have one because she "guest-scribed" Pocket Rockets and The Red Ace. This fact has always alarmed me a little bit, as we have never really been given an explanation on why she was allowed.
