I spell out my numbers most of the time, I think it looks better that way.
I believe in literature, there is a rule based on syllables or digits. I think it's something like 5 digits and below spell it out, 6 digits and above, use numbers. (can someone verify this?)
Spelling out "ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine" is not necessary when you can simply write "99999".
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

I am not a wiki master. I made some slight errors in my article that i posted and i edited it but the changes are not showing up. Does it take a little while for it to update?

When you make an edit, the cached version gets reloaded and you should see the new version instantly. If you don't, maybe your browser shows the old version or something. Everyone else should see the new version.

As I design a LOT of cards (check out the portfolio in my sig if you don't believe me), am I allowed to use previous submissions that have already made the crucible?

Probably not.

Also:  I fixed the adrenaline article.  It was missing a lot of information, and I would have dropped the idea except it was perpetuating the falsity that adrenaline makes creatures live multiple times, which simply isn't true.  The article is now complete, correct, and with 1500+ words.  I also uploaded like four decks to the wiki so I wouldn't have to link to the forum.  It should be up to standard.  Still, if you decide redoing an already featured article is unacceptable, I suppose I still have time to choose another card.

Gl1tch, why didn't you point those things out when I originally wrote the Adrenaline article?

It doesn't? Then how do you explain abilities activating multiple times?

Also, I don't think I see your changes.

Blood, I did.  Repeatedly.  If I recall, it was kurohami who wrote the article.

Ah, and that's the beauty of it.  There's two reasons that should happen.  Either the ability activates on living, and you live multiple times, or it activates on attacking, and you attack multiple times.  There is but one subtle difference.

Emphatic bond activates upon living.

Seeing as EBs do NOT stack with adrenaline, it must mean they the creature only attacks multiple times.  Poison, freezing, stunning, and other options happen with every attack.  And it makes sense too.  If you attack, poison speeds up in the blood stream, you break out of us, you un-stun.  But if you "live" multiple times, then EB would have to trigger.

No, EB doesn't trigger because EB doesn't have Adrenaline. At least that's how I would think about it.

It was Kuroaitou who wrote the first draft of the article, and I changed about 75% of it when I wrote the second draft.

And I re-checked the poll thread. I don't see you correcting the "live multiple turns" thing anywhere.

Fair enough.  Point is, it's done now.  Take it or leave it.

Huh? You sure you updated the article properly?

Never mind that. Stupid caches. *grumbles*

But there are a few minor problems. For example, all card names and abilities should have the first letters of each word capitalized. Also, try not to add too much detail about a certain deck or decks, because the article is a card analysis, not a deck analysis. You can simply link to decks. I might edit the article a bit if I have time.

And again, I don't think that bit about Steam Machine is necessary. That part should be in the Steam Machine article, not the Adrenaline one.
