Movie screenshot license

Hi Jake - I was wondering if you could add Template:Movie screenshot to the list of license options available when a user uploads an image? Thanks. ~SuperHamster Talk 02:30, 19 August 2011 (EDT)

No problem. :) --Jake 10:57, 19 August 2011 (EDT)

Birthday Schedule

I put together the templates for the October birthdays, but I can't edit pages in the scehdule namespace. Is there somewhere I could put those (sandbox or user subpage, maybe?) for someone else to make pages out of? -Sky (talk) 14:15, 2 October 2011 (EDT)

I've changed the protection settings to allow any autoconfirmed user editing access to that namespace. You should be able to edit them now. Thanks for all of the work you've been doing! :) --Jake 17:16, 2 October 2011 (EDT)

Honored Member...until 1969

Hey Jake. I recently got honored member status, but there's a little problem...the notice that appeared at the top of the page once I became an honored member read "You are an honored member. As a reward for helping Nookipedia grow and prosper, we are pleased to offer you an ad-free experience until December 31, 1969. Keep up the good work! Click here to dismiss this notice." Special:HonoredMembers still says that honored member status will last until November 21, 2011 for me though, so it's just an issue with the notice by the looks of it. ~SuperHamster Talk 13:33, 22 October 2011 (EDT)

That's pretty odd, and I just tested this and it's not happening to me. I know all dates in Unix are made relative to 12/31/1969, but there's no reason for the site to display that to you instead of the real date. I've just un-dismissed your notice, so could you please tell me if it's still happening? Thanks! :) --Jake 15:02, 22 October 2011 (EDT)

The notice turned out correctly this time...odd. Thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk 17:33, 22 October 2011 (EDT)

Must have been a one-time rendering glitch. Glad it's working now! :) --Jake 20:43, 22 October 2011 (EDT)

I just got the weird date in the Honored Member notice, and I recall getting it the first time, too. It only happened the first time the notice appeared; when I went to another page the date corrected itself. -Sky (talk) 20:20, 9 November 2011 (EST)

Interesting. My best guess would be that the server is trying to cache the notice without realizing that the date is dynamic. I'll look into possible fixes, but it's not a very big issue. Thanks for your report! --Jake 20:37, 9 November 2011 (EST)

Hi-ho, this is Gooptek!

Thanks for helping me, I'm not very good at images... Also, it's good to know that there are Earthbound fans here... Hey, how did you managed to place that Pierce photo onto the "Favorite Villager" Userbox¿

No problem! Welcome to Nookipedia! To put an image into the villager info box, you just add this argument:

image=[[File:Image_name.png]]

And yeah, I love Eartbound too! I'm playing Mother 3 right now. See you around the wiki! :) --Jake 12:59, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

Uh, sorry to bother you again, but it isn't working... I don't know if I'm doing it right or wrong...--Gooptek 15:42, 2 November 2011 (EDT)

No problem! You mean on your user page? It seems fine to me. I see a Mr. Saturn inside the box. :) --Jake 15:49, 2 November 2011 (EDT)

I think he's talking about the favorite villager userbox on his page, and the Pierce fan userbox on your page. I added a field to the template to allow users to add an image of their favorite villager, so he should be able to put an image in now. -Sky (talk) 15:54, 2 November 2011 (EDT)

Uh, Jake, this precisely has nothing to do with the Wiki, but... In wich Chapter are you in Mother 3¿ It's because I need help with the game...--Gooptek 10:42, 6 November 2011 (EST)

I'm near the end of Chapter 4. :) --Jake 11:14, 6 November 2011 (EST)

Well, I'm on the Chapter Boss (of Chapter 4, too). It's very hard, I can't seem to defeat it... Not even Wikibound could help me...--Gooptek 11:50, 9 November 2011 (EST)

Actually, I just checked my game and I'm on chapter 5. Not sure how I beat the boss of chapter 4 though. :P Good luck, and let me know how it goes! --Jake 14:53, 9 November 2011 (EST)

Well, I've managed to defeat the Beaten Drum and the Gently Sweeping Guitar with a few PSI LOVE α, but the Jealous Bass keeps rockin' me with his Music Jam attack and his insane offense boost! I've read that I have to use Pencil Rockets with Boney, but they're very pricy, and they're sold at a shop wich lies at the entrance to the attic, a hard-to-reach place once you've explored it deep!--Gooptek 21:20, 11 November 2011 (EST)

Yeah, I think I remember using a few Pencil Rockets on him. I just found this YouTube video which may provide some tips on how to beat him. Hope that helps! :) --Jake 21:30, 11 November 2011 (EST)

Hello! Sorry for taking too long to post the result. He defeated me so fast, I could barely use a Sprinting Bomb... Well, I think that's because I'm level 12 with both Lucas and Boney, so that means that I only need to get to level 19 or so to defeat it. But it's so hard even to level up there at the attic, with all of the strong enemies... Also, what is that (EST) that you place at the end of every "comment"¿ (Oh, and thanks for the video! I've seen that, after the battle, the person that was playing leveled up to level 20. Now I know at wich level I need to be!)--Gooptek 12:29, 17 November 2011 (EST)

No problem! And yeah, it always helps to spend some time grinding some levels. I always like to be at a slightly higher level than normal for boss fights. And the (EST) following most time stamps refers to the Eastern Time Zone, which is the time zone our website follows. --Jake 15:03, 17 November 2011 (EST)

Hey! Sorry for taking too long to answer. There's no good news... they're INCREDIBLE news! Now, I've rocked him with a few PK Rockin' α (also known as PK LOVE α) and some pencil rockets! And nobody in my party got defeated! Thank you for helping me find the level that I've needed to be to beat him!--Gooptek 21:26, 26 November 2011 (EST)
