Eh[edit source]

Do you mind if I can be judge numero dos for the Christmas thing? ~ 15:20, 11 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Sure, feel free to add your name to the list, along with a catchy Christmassy tagline, if you feel so inclined! -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 17:30, 11 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Holy C.R.A.P![edit source]

Merry Chrimbland!

Heh, thanks for the welcome :). Think 4 is enough, dont want too many. Meerry crimbo!--Ben Blade 20:05, 11 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Probably right. Seriously considering having separate points tallies and a "table" to see if it is more efficient than arguing on IRC, three is usually the optimum. And a Merry Christmas to you too! Have a mince pie on me. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 21:00, 12 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

French illogipedia[edit source]

Dear friend, I see you're almost alone on french illogipedia. I also see that there aren't many changes there and that you're occupied here. Ben, pour finir, est-ce que j'ai raison pour devenir sysop là? Mon français est plus ou moin bon, c'est grâce à l'education chez moi à l'école en Belgique, mais je trouve que les Flamands doivent attaquer les Wallons parce qu'ils sont bêtes... si! BETES!!! | CartoonistHenning 20:41, 11 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! :p | CartoonistHenning 20:50, 11 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
I'll admit to knowing next to no French (so everything after the first two sentences is beyond me)... but I have made you an administrator there. Welcome aboard the Logimalpedie gravy train! -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 20:51, 11 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Festive message:[edit source]

Merry Christmas!
Santa cat.jpg

Ben wishes you a merry christmas and a snappy new year. Take that as a Insult compliment!


Merry Christmas!--Ben Blade 23:29, 18 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Cool, is that your cat? Merry Chrimbo to you too - I decided not to send cards around this year because it'd take forever. Still, doesn't mean to say I hate you or anything :P -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 13:49, 20 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

C.R.A.P.!![edit source]

Nice anagram there. CamelToe 16:57, 19 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Cheers, but I believe the credit for that piece of literary genius should go to Testostereich/MetelFLower/Olleh (can't remember which one, maybe a combination of the three). 'Tis indeed a very festive anagram! Also, it's looking like we're actually going to get a few entries in before the deadline, now. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 13:08, 20 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Crap and blog[edit source]

Cool,just had a look, I might visit that blog often :)! Well that sounds like a good idea since all of us being on IRC would be hard for the three of us--Ben Blade 16:08, 20 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)


Hi[edit source]

Hello. I know I haven't been very active in awhile but, I have been caught up with school, Chewbacca, and sports. So, uh, happy holidays and such. Well, nice to see you at Chewie Facts, and uh, bye. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 20:37, 20 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Hi again RFK! A Happy holiday period to you too, RFK. Yep, there are more important things to be thinking about than Illogicopedia, like eating. And sleeping. :p -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 22:25, 20 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Favor[edit source]

Hi Hindley. I would like to ask a favor of you. Could you create a logo for Chewbacca Facts? Mine is good, but I want something really professional like. And of course, who to ask but Hindleyite. So, if you are up for the job, just tell me and if not, just tell me. See you around! Ps. I found a draft you had made and I finished the fact and published it as fact number 21. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 20:44, 22 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

I made a new logo that looks nice. You can still make a logo, because it might be even better!Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 21:30, 22 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Hey, I like your overhaul of the Chewie Facts site! The new logo is looking good, and I'll see if I can create something over the Christmas period for you. Also, looks like it's already got a bit of traffic from my blog aswell :) Here's to creating the next Chuck Norris.... -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 11:19, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, I saw some traffic from retro yakking. I think you also went, it was from a place called Wigan in the UK. Ch'ears to creating the next Chuck Norris! Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 14:02, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Usually when you see Wigan pop up on any of those Feedjit traffic feeds it's me. Good luck and hope you get one or two more hits from Retro Yakking. Oh, I could also do a Featured website post for it on the Illogiblog. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 14:30, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Ok, that would be nice. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 16:04, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
If you haven't noticed, last night I put up a favicon for the site. I could put one for the ?blog if you want. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 18:18, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
That would be good! Here's something I knocked up in 15 minutes on Photoshop for Chewie Facts. I may work on it more if you're interested? -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 21:04, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Thanks Hindley. The new logo is pretty sweet, and if you want you can work on it some more. For now it is the current logo. As for the ?blog favicon, I need to be a blog admin to acess the html or whatever. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 21:31, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
woah. Chewie Facts just got like a butt load of trafic from all over the place! Ps. I entered it in technorati or whatever. Also when you work on the logo, Chewie's head is kinda in the way of the T. Not that it is bad or anything, I just noticed that the t was blocked sorta. --Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 21:50, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
That is weird. Feedjit says they're coming in from the NavBar. Could it have been featured or something? Dunno, I'll try and look into it. About the graphic, yeah I purposely made his head overlap the title. Can be easily changed, but I thought I'd try it out. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 22:19, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
I saw one from Stumble upon and one or two from google. And the rest are from some kind of blogger place. Navbar as in clicking next blog? I dunoo......So about the ?blog favicon I need to be a blog admin to do it(this was stated above but you didnt respond about it.Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 22:47, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Oh right. I just had something similar to the Chewie blog happen to one of my blogs with StumbleUpon. Cool. Anyhow, if you tell me what to do I can sort the favicon, but I'll let you create it if you like :) -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 22:58, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
This is where i learned it. I will create the favicon and you can put it in the html.Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 23:17, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Put this in the said palce if you like the favicon:<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.iconj.com/ico/2/v/2vuck6url3.ico" /> I will post the favicon in it's normal size, then in it's favicon size on the ?blog.Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 23:27, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Sorted! Well, that was a lot simpler than I thought it would be. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 11:48, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

IA userboxes[edit source]

i want to create userboxes to be given out as rewards in IA but how? Illogic armada 23:41, 23 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Well, take a look at what I did here. It's a little bit advanced, but if you copy paste the code for that page to your desired location and tweak it around a bit you can customise it to your tastes. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful on this right now, butcha know, things ta do and everything. If you start it I'll guide you along if you like. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 11:57, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Question[edit source]

How did you put a custom background for Retro Yakking on blogger? Because i could put like space or something fro chewie facts.--Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 02:40, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

I think it can only be done by using the HTML code. I think. Upload your image to Photobucket first, then I can't remember what I did. Look for a bit of code that looks like this:
body {
  background: #F7FEFF url('http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z301/hindleyite/ytbg-2.gif') repeat;
  margin:0;
  color:$textcolor;
  font: x-small "Trebuchet MS", Trebuchet, Verdana, Sans-serif;
  font-size/* */:/**/small;
  font-size: /**/small;
  text-align: center;
  }

Either

  1. Replace the http address in the background line with a direct link to your image
  2. Insert that line of code if there isn't already one there, then replace the http address

That should give you a repeating background. Get me? Good, because I don't. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 11:52, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

TBH, that First line is all in the code that is giving you a repeating background, the rest are textstyles etc ;) --Silent Penguin 11:56, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, what Sepp said. I was just pointing out that RFK needed to paste the line in the body tag... but this is all getting way too technical for Christmas Eve! Which reminds me, is the Javascript snow effect going to be applied today? -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 11:59, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Psst, IRK :D[edit source]

pweeze :'( --Silent Penguin 12:00, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

OK, but not for long. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 12:01, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.iconj.com/ico/j/a/jashpezt0n.ico" /> Here's the new code. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 13:29, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Ok now The backgorund is a messed up. I put the pic background and didnt like it and i had already deleted wat was there before so I cant get the black background again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!--Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 13:39, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

dont wry i got it, i reset the template. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 13:42, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

What's yours? I need it to send you my results! Or I can just say them, but I'm not sure. nyway, I'm pretty sure you've chosen the same as I have. ~ 17:27, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

You could probably just say them here, but my email is here. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 17:36, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Well the email doesn't seem to be working, apparently I don't have a valid email. Well, THE's is first, HelloolleH's is second, and the one by Moribund was, erm, weird. ~ 18:00, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)
Excellent! Now I can post the results. Thank you very much for being a judge in this competition! -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 18:48, 24 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Moving pages is currently limited to certain users to prevent sandalism. Sozz. Which page you want moving? -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 22:25, 25 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Hey[edit source]

The illogiblog appears to be having, difficulties. The sidebar is under all the posts. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 20:51, 28 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Looks fine to me ¬_¬ --Silent Penguin 00:54, 29 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

This is funny[edit source]

Click this it is a story about this guy hanging out wiht a drunk chewbacca. Very funny!Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 23:33, 29 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

Hah, great stuff! Chewie facts looks pretty professional these days. Maybe you could work that story into the blog somehow? -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 20:49, 30 Ditzimber 2008 (UTC)

color[edit source]

hmmmm... cant seem to get the color right. Illogic armada 00:01, 1 Jeremy 2009 (UTC)

I had a go at it, hope it's fixed now. By the way, I think you may have got the first edit for 2009, in which case congrats (congarats?)! -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 21:10, 1 Jeremy 2009 (UTC)

Thanks[edit source]

I recently got some traffic from reddit.com. I followed the link and saw you had submitted Chewie Facts as "Why Chewbacca Is Better Than Chuck Norris.". So I wanted to say thanks. PS. I also see that you added it to stumbleupon. Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 21:25, 6 Jeremy 2009 (UTC)

Questions asked[edit source]

One question: Is there information on how I can be admin? Joe9320 10:07, 7 Jeremy 2009 (UTC) no, because us other admins get around the illogitree and pick one we think will be good for the site, people don't apply for it. Nothing ginds our gears more than people asking to be admins.--Silent Penguin 17:43, 7 Jeremy 2009 (UTC)

I have been doing some research...[edit source]

I have found some places where there are some early forms of chewbacca-isms

[1]--There is some form of a chewie fact: Chewbacca once ripped a man's arms off just for snoring too loud.

[2]--A poll forum of who is the best out of chuck norris, steven seagal and chewbacca. Chewie had quite an awful lot of mentions. But, chuck came in first.

[3]--In the comments section, near the end their are two comments involving Chewbacca.

[4]--Chewbacca was voted more awesome than Chuck Norris Action Jeans.


More to come...Raggle Fraggle King (My TalkContribs} 16:34, 7 Jeremy 2009 (UTC)

Update: [5]--Who would win the fight: Chewbacca or Chuck Norris?

Some great research... these all sound like brilliant ideas for individual posts, with some convenient pictures too! The "Did you know Chewie was a Wookiee?" in particular has some great fodder. I submitted a reddit link for Cheewie Facts, but only got a little bit of success... and Chewie would paste Norris to a putty pulp, damn straight. Mwahahahaha. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 22:11, 10 Jeremy 2009 (UTC)
Dude, chuck norris cud beat chewbaacca by nipping him! Chuck norris is a fuckin legend!--Ben Blade 23:04, 10 Jeremy 2009 (UTC)

Contest?[edit source]

How does a contest sound? I hven't the slightest idea what about, but it seems like a good way to get some articles going. ~ 00:33, 23 Farbleum 2009 (UTC)

I agree with RMS, we probably need to get everyone up and gagging for it again. I'd suggest chocolate, oysters and viagra but I've already eaten those, sorry. Holy shit, my head's exploding... ColourfulMetalFlower.jpgMMF!talk←/→admin(:D)
Hm. Hot air balloons is MY kind of fun. Maybe we should direct it toward a how to or something factual over a story, since most of the articles laelay have been stories. That sound good? ~ 15:03, 24 Farbleum 2009 (UTC)

The OMG Scary AlienCast[edit source]

I'm finished with it (by the way, I'm also e-mailing this to you so if you already read that don't bother reading this) but I formatted it to be it's own podcast. I'm sending it to you because since you put the interview with T.O.M.G.S.A as the first podcast so I want you the second in command of IllogiLand (but between you and me you're first) you can decide whether or not to change the schedule.

--T3

Don't worry dude, I got your email and just listened to the 'cast :) Hmm, it kind of functions on its own, I suppose, but, like, I already put loads of mentions in the main podcast about it 'coming up later', so would you mind if it went in the full podcast? I was thinking it could go up on YouTube aswell, though, as a stand alone show. Did you do that theme tune yourself? Pretty cool. -- Hindleyite 10:14, 7 Arply 2009 (UTC)
