Question for the staff

[teanigami]

Hi guys, I'm hosting a giveaway for brand new towns and it's not getting very many participants.
Can it be put up as a sticky on the introduction board?
I'm not advertising anything, nor am I making any money. This solely to help out a few lucky new players. I might expand the number of winners.
Thanks!

I'm not going to sticky it but I will suggest a few things.


Putting the link into your signature where people will be more likely to see it will help.
Secondly the colored text might be putting a lot of people off so they aren't even reading it. A little bit of colored text is nice here and there but for me personally I can't even read it because it's so bright against our white backgrounds.

Thanks, I'll do those things

Still too much color ;-; Plus it doesn't contrast very much.

 

[teanigami]

I removed it -_-

 

[Bowie]

I removed it -_-

Actually, it's still there.

 

[teanigami]

How? I removed all the color except for the purple yesterday and when I click the link it's still gone.

Prof. Gallows may have been talking about the thread, but I was talking about the link you have in your signature. It's very off-putting, and it conforms to the rest of your signature. The bright blue deters people from reading it. ^~^

 

[teanigami]

Well I'm not changing the rest of my signature, but I'll change that last line for you.

Well I'm not changing the rest of my signature, but I'll change that last line for you.

If you want it to be noticed, I'd suggest changing the size.

 

[teanigami]

Aww, I tried to make the font bigger, but it exceeded the 1000 character limit. I'll change my signature a bit once I get a chance.

Try highlighting all the villagers of one color with the same color code.

Alright, not doing so well right now (post-op) but I'll fix it
Thanks for all your help
