Good job, David! I hope someone knows how to fix all the missing images on the TQ pages, and also in some of the old news items (see below).
Some time ago I noted down a bunch more errors I had spotted, but didn't get round to posting them here as the last batch had yet to be fixed. Here they are:
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series-7
~ Jacquelin Joyce's name was spelled wrong on the Series 7 main page. (This is currently not visible as the bottom of the page is missing, due to the still-not-fixed problem of imposed
character limits affecting several important pages.)
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... l=&start=1
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... -3-level-3
~ In the Series 3 level guides, the Fire Cave has no image or description, and the Level 3 Dwarf Tunnels have the wrong image (the hobgoblin scene).
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... es-4-teams
~ In the Series 4 teams guide, under Nicky's quest it says "
Accepted a challenge from Hordriss, but he did not say what it was." Eh? He asked her to redeem the Dagger of Darkness for him.
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... -4-level-2
~ In the Series 4 guide to Level 2, one of the images at the top doesn't match the description: "
On the right, this room was used when a dungeoneer needed to change size to fit through doors (as in Dickon's quest)." No it wasn't... that was a totally different room, which wasn't the first room of Level 2.
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... -5-level-1
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... l=&start=1
~ In the Series 5 guide to Level 1, "
this picture shows Brother Mace playing cards with Sylvester Hands!" Not unless they recently drank an invisibility potion, it doesn't.
From the second page, "
Werewolves in the background" - LOL what?? Is there any particular reason to believe the townsfolk are werewolves?
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... -6-level-2
~ In the Series 6 guide to Level 2, "Courtyard with Scaramonger" shows a duplicate image of the clue area outside the castle. Several typos and misspelled names: "propsed", "Peggarty", "Dreadnaught", "Heggarty", "Sidress".
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... opposition
~ In the Series 6 Opposition guide, "
The Leader of the Opposition had a new chamber in Mount Fear this season, whilst retaining his communications pool." The pool was new for this series! (He had a crystal ball before.)
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... es-7-teams
~ In the Series 7 teams guide, the link to a scan of Team 3's clipboard notes gives a 404 error.
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... l=&start=1
~ In the Series 8 teams guide, it says "
Nevertheless he gives them a spell to open the trapdoor, then also gave them a FLOAT spell use on the trapdoor. Rothberry tries to go down with Michael, but it doesn't work!" This is wrong - he only gave them one spell (FLOAT), and used a flying potion to prevent himself from falling through the trapdoor, which he opened for them by jumping on it. (The first sentence also has a missing word and inconsistent tense.)
Further down the same page, "
She charges up their Reach wand with a hidden REVEAL spell." It was actually a REVEAL HIDDEN spell!
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... opposition
~ In the Series 8 Opposition guide, Sidriss is again misspelled as "Sidress". Also, this doesn't make a whole lot of sense: "
He held a hand puppet called 'Snapper' because his arm got bitten off once, apparently." How could he hold it without a hand?
Clearly it *was* a puppet in reality, but it was supposed to be a live snapdragon that had grown in place of his arm!
http://www.knightmare.com/series/series ... -8-winners
~ On the Series 8 winners page, there are supposedly two photos of Alan's Frightknight trophy at the bottom, but neither images nor links are present!
http://www.knightmare.com/fan-stuff/fanzines/38-club
~ On the KAC page, "Hugo's There?" in Volume 2 Number 2 (Spring 1993) linked to a random page from an earlier issue. (Not currently visible as most of the page is cut off.)
http://www.knightmare.com/fan-stuff/fan ... -quest-122
~ In the Spring 1992 issue of TQ, I can now confirm that Rayner Bourton's charity should be "Tendis", not "Tendris".
Another typo I missed before: "...
unfortunately we can't return then..." (should be "them").
http://www.knightmare.com/fan-stuff/fan ... uest-114-5
Canadanne wrote:~ "Smirkenorff is his name (Smirky to his few friends) among them Elita, the cheeky Elf)." Urgh, bracket imbalance! *has a thing about mismatched parentheses*
While the extra bracket has now been removed, I'm thinking perhaps it was the other one that should have been left in place: "
Smirkenorff is his name (Smirky to his few friends, among them Elita, the cheeky Elf)." Come to think of it, that's probably how the mistake occurred in the first place - OCR scanner mistaking a comma for a bracket.
http://www.knightmare.com/fan-stuff/fan ... -quest-216
~ "
I think this one's hilarious!" This is still missing a quote mark after it.
http://www.knightmare.com/fan-stuff/fan ... uest-224-5
~ "
"So, it was you who saved me! exclaimed Treguard." Still needs another quote mark added.
(There may well be more typos to correct in the TQ pages, as I only looked through the first five issues.)
Problems with links and images which I noticed after the last upgrade:
~ The 'Next' link takes you to the next section of the website when you'd expect it to take you to the next page of the current section. For example, in Tim's '
A History of Knightmare', when you get to the end of Page 1 and click 'Next', you don't go to Page 2, but to the Terms and Conditions section. There *are* page links at the top, but it's still confusing and not how the site used to behave. Even more confusingly, in most of the TQ issues, 'Next'
does take you to the next page, while 'Next Page' is a broken link.
http://www.knightmare.com/home/faq
~ On the FAQ page, the links to the FANSFAQ and History of Knightmare (x2) need correcting.
http://www.knightmare.com/home/links
~ A small nitpick: the categories on the Links page have ended up being listed backwards, starting with 'Others' which looks a bit odd.
Under Fansites, the KMRAmDram link is out of date (now replaced by the Dunshelm Players site), and under Reviews, the two Bother's Bar articles have moved. A few other fansites and reviews seem to be gone now as well, but might still exist on web.archive.org?
http://www.knightmare.com/news/kmvr
http://www.knightmare.com/news/timegate
~ Is there a way to put the KMVR and TimeGate news items back into chronological order? At the moment they're all jumbled up.
http://www.knightmare.com/news/kmvr/145 ... evelopment
~ News item 'Knew Knightmare VR development' mentions a graphic "shown above", but the graphic is no longer there. The link to the TimeGate trailer is also broken.
http://www.knightmare.com/news/kmvr/145 ... -new-clips
http://www.knightmare.com/news/kmvr/144 ... -available
~ News items 'Knightmare VR - New Clips' and 'Knightmare VR - Pilot Clips Available' both include a broken link to the KMVR download page which is now located here:
http://www.knightmare.com/series/43-roo ... ething-new
The latter news item also has an image missing, and all the screencaps on the download page are broken, as are several of the links.
http://www.knightmare.com/news/timegate ... eater-game
~ News item 'Return of the Greater Game' is meant to be a promotional graphic, but the graphic has disappeared.
http://www.knightmare.com/news/timegate ... e-articles
~ In the news item 'Timegate Articles', the links to the articles are broken.
http://www.knightmare.com/news/timegate ... mo-trailer
~ TimeGate news item 'Promo Trailer' is missing the attached download of the trailer.
http://www.knightmare.com/behind/unseen ... mare-pilot
~ Billy's article about the pilot script is missing the actual script attachment.
http://www.knightmare.com/behind/unseen ... 8-outtakes
http://www.knightmare.com/behind/unseen ... ellyvision
http://www.knightmare.com/behind/unseen ... experiment
~ 'Series 8 Outtakes', 'Knightmare on Kellyvision' and 'Chroma Key Experiment' no longer require the (broken) links to the video clips, as they're now attached to the articles. The History link at the bottom of the Kellyvision article also needs fixing.
http://www.knightmare.com/behind/unseen ... mirkenorff
~ The Smirkenorff article has a broken link to an article in The Quest.
http://www.knightmare.com/behind/unseen ... e-drawings
~ Original Title Drawings article has a broken link at the top.
Those are the only sections I got round to checking, so there may be similar issues elsewhere on the website.
On a more positive note, I meant to say before that the site looks great with all the new section illustrations etc, and I noticed that many of the broken links *had* been fixed which is great to see!
