omigod... i joined a game marked Escalite...

is this what i think it is???
i suggested that back in '06 on that Hasbro rip-off site (lol, jk)

very cool... i suppose i'll just figure out this and other things as i go...
i was never fast at learning new things, but eventually....


on that note,,, i really like the graphics, and some stuff is easy (like the tabs above), but other things seem awkward going from here to there... several times now, i've ended up with multiple windows open, but still don't get there... seems odd... just saying, since all y'all are used to it and aren't feeling that i'm sure... and after awhile i won't either,,, but beta means that it needs some tweeking, right?

ohhhhhhh... just noticed buttons below me....
my fingers are tingling...
MUST.... resisit...URGE.. TO .... PRESS..........

LOL.... Flashing ALERT button...
I feel like i pulled the fire alarm, heheheee :biggrin:

Yeah, escalite is what you think it is, and i confess i stole the idea from you. but it needs to tweaking i believe, as does escalating.

the beta is about streamlining so if you could divulge specifics as to what might be confusing or lead you astray, let us know. Things get changed pretty quickly 'round here.

most of those post buttons will be reserved for mod use eventually, so best to pull them before fire department comes and turns the fun off.

-Glad to have someone else who uses the word "y'all" - we should get along just fine
-ended up with multiple windows open? Can you explain that one a bit?

Thanks!

don't be intimidated by "hip vagina". His name may seem hard, but he's a softy at heart.

Can't recall exactly, although i was trying to navigate and couldn't seem to get where i wanted to go...
odds are i just needed to scroll down the page to get what i wanted, but who knows...
i'll be sure to provide better input in the future...


Perhaps there should be a top tab named "NAV" for simple navigating help

I, for some reason, hadn't noticed. But now that I have, I know you are real about your y'all'isms

Actually I am from AZ. I moved to Houston for several years. But believe it or not, I was a y'all'er before I got there. And being there only reinforced my use of the word, as there it is accepted as a formal word even in high-level business.

And yourself?

"Escalite is a resevre structure between flat rate and escalating. Reserve bonuses increase by one each time they are called up."

Just found a typo - this is from the description of the feature on the Create a Game page
