Hints For Browsing This Sub-forum

This forum's default view is set to the way the normal forum operates: topics are listed and sorted by posting order, and the most recent posts are at the top. While this makes it simple to keep up with updates when you've been browsing for a while, it makes it a bit hard to locate a specific game in the database without resorting to the Search function time after time.

To remedy this, scroll down to the bottom of the page within the forum and check out the lower-right corner of the screen. Where it says: "Order: Last Post", click on the drop-down menu and change it to "Order: Topic Title". Then change the box next to it from "Z-A" to "A-Z" and click the "Go" button. The forum will sort itself into alphabetical order by game title, which should make locating a specific game very simple, especially if you aren't sure exactly how to spell it.

Under the current naming scheme for the forum, game titles starting with "A", "An", or "The" will be listed instead by the next word in the title. For instance, "The Combatribes" will be found under "Combatribes, The" and not "The Combatribes". This should help prevent confusion and increase the general readability of the forums. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!
