Ice Age
So do we keep here the reference to the Ice age movie or not? M4sh 14:23, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
- Reposting arguments from the History:
- There are links stating where the idea of an in-game object could possibly arrive from, this deserves to be stated. Resemblance is in characterization. -- 08:35, 5 January 2010 Khal
- removed reference to Ice Age - has little to do with the game, is highly opinon based and likely no more than a coincidence (I personally fail to see the resemblance) -- 06:59, 5 January 2010 MearsMan
- Personally, I would vote to keep, but I don't feel very strongly about it either way. -- Camomiletea 00:22, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- I don't mind the reference, but I really don't see the resemblance. They're both rodents in an icy setting? -- rh 23:44, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- It is a parody of the scene where Scrat is frozen in an ice block with the acorn just out of his reach. The statement currently in the wiki is slightly inaccurate though, since the mouse itself doesn't have too much semblance with Scrat, but rather the image in it's entirety is reminiscent of the scene. Here is an image of the scene, and a video here. -- Grexx 06:19, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
- It makes much more sense when explained like that. With just a reference to Scrat, it will be only clear to people already knowing that image or scene, I believe. Which makes it kinda useless. -- rh 15:47, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
- Fixed the description, it should be clearer now. Feel free to make changes as needed. -- Grexx 18:51, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
Loot
Should we keep the Great Winter Hunt loot in the intro write-up? I think it belongs in history/trivia, but looking at different mice (such as Worker and Christmas Tree), they all have the event loot in the intro as well. Doogleface 19:51, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
I think, it should be move to history/trivia because this information is obsolete.M4sh 22:30, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
- Agree. I'd also move the Festive Comet location info from the intro to history and trivia. It is confusing to have it in the intro, now the Festive Comet is gone. Also discussed on Talk:Festive_Comet#Mice_Locations -- rh 23:53, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
Mountain location?
This article had Mountain in the infobox, but nowhere else. Can someone confirm that Frozen are indeed in the Mountain? -- Camomiletea 00:33, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
Legal issues
Are you sure we have legal permission to use the Scrat image from Ice Age? The last thing we all want is Dreamworks knocking on the devs door with a cease and desist letter... 03:18, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
