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!

    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 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 >_>)
