Mole Mouse

the lab, and town of gnawnia are definately accurate locations although uncommon there by i know 100% that i have seen them caught in both the lab and town of gnawnia so thats why i think it should be added to mole page. really if looking to catch one your best bet is still meadow or digsby though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Icdbko32 (talk • contribs) 20:02, 3 February 2009

• If you can provide a screenshot, show posts my other players also claiming catches in these locations, or other proof of catching them in those places I'm happy to consider it. But none of the editors I've talked with have ever seen them in these locations nor have they seen reports from others claiming catches in these locations. I'm happy to look at proof, but the current evidence is overwhelmingly against your claim. Nothing personal in the least. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 02:30, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Scared me!

Man that alteration of my code threw me for a loop. I didn't think you or anyone was paying attention to my tinkerings.

LOL! Sorry about that — I check the RecentChanges page to see what's new and it looked like you might benefit from a bit o' coding. BTW, it's good wiki etiquette to always sign your entries on people's Talk (Discussion) pages by either typing --~~~~ or by clicking the signature button atop the edit box (second button from the right, looks like a scribble). Just a tip, not a complaint. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 05:54, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Question

Are you a dev? Or the equivalent to the MHWiki? Just curious. And thanks for the help on the coding. Is there anything else I could do?--Delish 06:39, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Nope. Just another editor here with a need for something to fill the 15 minutes between hunts. LOL! I've got a lot of wiki experience and actually host one for another game I won't mention here. Always glad to help out. As for helping out ... I guess just look around and see what's missing or messy. I know the Starting out and General Path pages could use some help. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 06:43, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

My bad

You're right about the edit to the traps page. I personally think it's more useful to have the info in the table, and don't mind scrolling sideways, but I shouldn't have just undid your change. Sorry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nebjob (talk • contribs) 14:07, 5 February 2009

• No problem. :-) -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 20:11, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

• Just a follow up on the edit to the traps page. MouseHunters are NOT happy about the changes. They like the ease of looking up the trap info right there in one click from the main page. This wiki is for them, and should cater to what they want. That is the responsibility one takes on when one becomes an admin. That's what the Devs do for us in MouseHunt.

Messing with the wiki?

Heres a topic on the boards. Who is messing with the wiki

• LOL! Thanks for the heads up. That's some entertaining reading! Love the people who complain but can't come up with anything constructive to contribute. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 17:36, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Wiki: Zingbats

Yes, I am new to the wiki. However, we discussed in the forum thread that the best way to get the journals is to use white cheddar in the meadow. As it's dropped by a Dwarf mouse, it automatically makes White Cheddar cheese the better bait option. Additionally, I'm only recording the number of users who happen to have caught it first time. As a man of science, I would not even consider my theory without evidence. I think 8 users catching it first time using the principle is a enough evidence to at least suggest it as a technique. See Mole Mouse for similar techniques of using white cheddar to catch a certain mouse. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zingbats (talk • contribs) 11:58, 8 February 2009

As a man of science, you might recognize that your sample size is too small to draw any meaningful conclusions (8 people out of some 100,000 players). At any rate, I moved the info to a "Hunting strategies" section (similar to the Mole Mouse page you mentioned) to try to find a balance between fact and theory. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 18:06, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
