I could do Uldah, sure, but I'm also quite familiar with all the Gridania quests since my main was from Grid and was in Twin Adder.

I also have majority of the cutscenes recorded and can take screencaps or pull text as needed. I don't have a lot of the crafting quests though :|

I find that... slightly amusing. You rave about Thancred and then don't run with the Imortal Flames. :P

My main character is actually Ul'dah > Twin Adder, although I ran through the Gridanian starter quests in reasonable detail multiple times using an alt, meaning I've delved much further into them than the Ul'dah quests. Go figure.

I've started a write-up for Sundered Skies.

Yeah see when I started my character 2 yrs ago I wasn't aware of who Thancred was >_> I started an alt in Limsa but by the time I really noticed Than it was too late to make another char to run through the Ul'dah storylines :/

Won't be making that mistake again in 2.0, especially since we get free characters with Legacy

I did play a friend's chara through the first 4 Ul'dah storylines and recorded them, watched them over and over so I have a pretty good idea about how they run. I guess you can say I took a "fresh" look to it, so it's still pretty clear in my memory how the events unfold.

With the Grand Companies, the quests don't differ all that much from each other, except the initial ones (which some require you to do before you can commit to one GC). I'd done the one with Than for Immortal Flames, but it'd been so long I didn't remember it at all (the one where he and Urianger train you or something).

Little Easter eggs I found doing the different storylines: in the fight against Gaius van Baelsar, your nation Circle member deflects his first attack after he knocks out your Path companion, i.e. Yda protected me because I was from Grid, Than protected my friend's chara because he was from Ul'dah etc.

The last CS in To Kill a Raven, where you approach the three GC leaders, your corresponding GC desk officer will salute you as you walk by, and your GC leader will step up to talk to you when you kneel :3

The wife was a little annoyed at me interrupting her viewing of Once Upon A Time

What a coincidence; I interrupted my girlfriend's Netflix binge of Once Upon a Time to take the screenshots!

It is "morbol", not "marbol ... I would not be noting use of blizarra by the conjurer as a cross-class skill, since it is now a class-restricted spell for THM/BLM. ... Build this in with an explanation of the use of dome-protect in CG scenes being out of place and you're set.

Good points; I'll fix those.

I'm still trying to think of the best place to have these discussions. People who know how wikicode works (or are interested in learning the bare essentials for talk pages) can always use the individual discussion pages, but ideally I'd like a forum backing of some kind. Still not sure whether to wait for SE to confirm or deny the Lore Forum, in which case I could just make a thread for each episode as I go, or maybe lobby for one at GE? Dunno!

You can count me in, my friend.

Sign me up too o_o

Thank you! /bow

If you guys aren't familiar with wiki markup, I can copyedit/format. I'll have to make some kind of, like, contributor guide for building a uniform style at some point. The hardest part of this is that The Unending Journey only tells you some of the story. Finding who said what is sometimes just as hard as making sure you have all the dialogue from instanced NPCs and optional discussions. Again, eventually finding a home forum will come in handy for this.

I now have FRAPS, though, so at least I can record my ARR quests in complete form and stash 'em until we get caught up to those episodes.

Also, I'm about done with the prototype of a main-story interactive quest (Shapeless Melody). So far the only differences are that the Raw Transcript page is a lot longer and harder to confirm, and there aren't many opportunities to use the smaller image frames, both minor issues that don't pose larger problems, so we're lookin' good.

I am not familliar with it, but I can learn.
In my writing-up of Sundered Skies, I'm mimicing your style as best I can in Microsoft Word for now and even plagiarising bits where exactly the same stuff happend (eg: "hear, feel, think"). I'm about to move on to Souls gone Wild.

I plan to try and get some stuff ready for this time next week, once I'm no longer away from home and with tablet-only internet.

I have full transcripts up to and including Fade to White for the Gridanian line, which is the last point where the main scenarios are divergent based on city of origin until Futures Perfect.
Some extra collaboration on Fade to White (given the differences from having Tataru, Blackburn or Krimm speaking to Minfilia) may also be in order.

I agree, having a dedicated forum to this vs one thread would be heaps easier to navigate through the loads of info and debates about certain things ><

I am not well versed in wiki markup, but can easily read up and learn it. I'd feel better about contributions if I didn't weigh you down with having to do the coding Lol. I have access to other sources that we could pull info from if needed as well.

I'd suggest lobbying for some space at GE just to get the ball rolling on this faster.

Ninja edit:
On the quotes part for your loremonger section, you might want to distinguish the elezens as "male elezen" and "female elezen", since both genders appear in the opening FMV.

Also, I can start transcribing the Ul'dah quests (as much as the Unending Journey will give me before I resort to other methods >_>)
