=Creating Infoboxes and Navboxes=
+
==Get your ass back to these good ideas==
  
The process for creating an infobox:
+
===2024===
* before you begin: map out the information that will go into the infobox
 
* top level categories become headers
 
* secondary level key-value pairs become labels/data
 
* when you're ready to make the template, copy the contents of an existing template that uses {{Tl|Infobox}}, like {{Tl|Infobox team}}
 
* start with two pieces: the includeonly piece (calling the {{Tl|Infobox}} template) and the noinclude piece (which gives an example)
 
* it's helpful to do this step in a text editor, so you can edit the example and the Infobox template it calls at the same time

Big Purple Time Machine
 +
* invent a time machine to try and change the past
 +
* everything they do just results in a bunch of alternative Golly universes where they continue to lose the pennant game
  
=October 2021=
+
Golly Mirror Universes:
 +
* would require rewriting golly core to do reverse indexing of array
 +
* would probably be bookkeeping - intriguing idea
 +
* revives the whole idea of a golly sandbox - different patterns, different maps, different CA types... golly reverse grid

(good point - DET or BTX being up 2-0 in a playoff series is a notable event...)
  
[[User:Ch4zm/November 2021]] - poster bylines, crown expansion to rainbow cup

tool to find these?

[[Visualize Your Power]]
  
Lore Fragments: [[User:Ch4zm/December 2021/Lore Fragments]] (lots of unfinished fragments)
+
This raises so many questions...
 +
* First: how did we even find this? I think we zeroed in on the one-point victory, and it just so happened to fold in nicely with the season narrative
 +
* Second: we could use better templates. what cup, what season, what day, score, color boxes with team colors
 +
* Third: love it, in spirit. but it opens a can of worms. programmatically finding these matches, running golly spice calculations, organizing golly spice data, compute resources needed to do that (although, shoot, we can just sit back and let emmett/seawater chug...)
 +
* Fourth: potential to use these to generate or reinforce a narrative thread... might be a good time to introduce other elements to help the narrative thread from getting repetitive, for example, managers and team captains

[[Delaware Torches Detroit]]
  
Toroidal: Stealing the Hellmouth Crown: [[User:Ch4zm/December 2021/Toroidal]]
+
Similar idea - but this one is for a series...
  
=January 2022=
+
* Focus is on the Detroit Grape Chews (as good a tragicomic starting point as any, right??)
 +
* Single greatest choke of all time (series)
 +
* Could also do features of each double-choke series,
 +
* Could also give nicknames to each Detroit choke, and each Baltimore choke,
 +
* (This is where we'd want to dig deeper into tragic sports lore for some ideas)
 +
* Could use Grape Chews choke series as jumping-off points for Hot League teams
 +
* (Repeat same with Baltimore, Cold League teams)
  
Poster tasks:
+
Procedure:
* Upload each poster
+
* Create a plan
* Add team categories to each poster
+
* Start with double choke series, then move on to rest of choke series
* Each team's page should include relevant poster in Art section
+
** games, context
 +
** alliterative nicknames for teams (amazin mets, sultans of swat, whatever)
 +
* Then move on to games
 +
** we know final scores, so start with one-point games
 +
** every one-point game deserves some investigation
 +
** then move on to shutouts or blowouts - any at critical points in the season
 +
** I think we found the Sacramento Boot Lickers one by looking at a table of W-L, game opponent, game outcome, etc., for each season, season by season...
 +
** figure out if that was a command line tool, or a wiki template, or what...

===Series: Midwest Staredown===
Team category tasks:
 
* Each Golly league team should have a category page
 
* Each category page should use CTeam template
 
* Each template should use PAGENAME special variable

=June 2025=
Head:
 
* Ensure using CTeam template at top
 
* Ensure infobox goes before intro text
 
  
Tail:
+
* Lack of lore leads to one or two ideas sticking on a page, immobile
* Ensure navbox section header
+
* Trying to get unstuck leads to one or two pages having more extensive lore, using templates, building things out
* Ensure correct team/league navboxes
+
* ...could keep going
* Ensure team category applied
+
* ...but stops there, too much work
* Ensure cup categories applied
+
* Hard to keep track of the things that aren't automated, too, some things go years without getting updated because I just forgot about them.

==Reorganize Team Pages==
  
Update all Toroidal Cup series participants (posters, toroidal cup tags, etc.)
+
Following {{CTeam|DET}}'s lead (above - they are one of the pages with the most extensive lore)
  
Add the [[Squeaky Sweep]] - Season 17 sweep of the {{CTeam|BBR}} by the {{CTeam|SCS}}, resulting "One Point Wonder" nickname

===Why reorganize now===
** adding a link to the /Postseason page for a given season
 
  
* [[User:Ch4zm/February 2022/Dynasty Pages]]
+
makes lore segmented
** For each dynasty: include the templates needed to show their route through the postseason
 
** three sections for each of the three wins
 
** flawless dynasties - show the losses that were part of the dynasty too
 
  
=June 2022=
+
gives us opportunity to make everything uniform and automated into templates
  
Here's a thought:
+
overview template
  
* it's getting hard to keep track of dynasties
+
(old page, new page, figure out what to port.)
* have to edit the team's page, add categories
 
* keep the categories organized
 
* then have to add the same categories to the team logo
 
* etc etc etc
 
  
to make it automated: create templates like {{Tl|SBCTeamCategories}}
+
so much work.
  
that just inserts categories
+
too much work.
  
* {{Tl|PeninsulaTeamCategoriesBase}}
+
shadow pages?

Also need to do some records reorganization:

NFL - 16 games, usually play opponents twice... nice medium between 49 and 9. (there is something unsatisfying about having each team play twice, and having even splits so often.)
 
 
 
Funny how, when I saw the postseason format, I immediately recognized exactly how it works. "Oh yup they just take the top four and then the next top three"
 
 
 
(like, yeah, of course you can have a whole division in the postseason)

nope, even Jelle's has a team captain

where to go from here?
 
 
 
* lore jams have some good ideas
 
* artwork? graphics? (take those and put them on virtual t-shirts)
 
 
 
Getting closer to scratching the itch, and resolving the issue with lore.
 
 
 
None of the lore is adding useful/fun character (motto, slogan, cheer, word, element, none of it).
 
 
 
===memes===
 
 
 
taking inspiration from recent sports t-shirts, can rely on a few templates:
 
 
 
* "template" (like Sunday Funday, or the outline of a person/shared graphic) (can duplicate and change color scheme)
 
* same phrase? different phrases? references to lore?
 
* sunday funday
 
* DUUUUUUVAAAAAAL
 
* You Can't Do That
 
* JET'S PIZZA tricolor stripes
 
 
 
More?
 
 
 
* retro super bowl logos
 
* party like it's generation 5967
 
* happy valentine's day
 
 
 
another template that can work well:
 
* A& B& C& D
 
 
 
===History navboxes===
 
 
 
These are completely not useful. Figure something out here. I don't know.
 
 
 
Promotional Poster Phrases:
 
* Surf and Turf (S1)
 
* Include these in the history navbox? maybe?

(These could also be useful for memes, graphics, etc.)
 
 
 
==Dig for Weirdness==
 
 
 
Need to dig deep to find the weird stuff, the unusual, the unfortunate
 
 
 
===Real curses and unfortunate situations===
 
 
 
take inspiration from real life curses/unfortunate situations/hero runs:
 
 
 
* detroit lions - "won't win for 50 years", accumulate worst record in entire league, never made it to super bowl, 1 single playoff win during that entire period (prior to 2023)
 
* cleveland sports curse https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_sports_curse
 
* super bowl hangover
 
* Australian national team hiring a witch doctor, whose curse worked against the opposition, but backfired when they didn't pay the witch doctor (seems very DECO)
 
* "the bride of europe" or "the second of europe" - constantly reaching final round but failing to win, or constantly coming in as runners up
 
* Dallas Cowboys - constantly winning when it matters least (teams that choke at the back end of the season - second half record, 1/2/3 thirds)
 
* Divisional Curse - team getting eliminated from every division series (Quinto Partido)
 
* Rangers/Devils - "94 and never more"
 
* Maple Leafs - second most championships all time, but longest current drought without winning Stanley Cup
 
* Red Right 88: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Right_88 ("throw it into Lake Eerie")
 
 
 
Real names:
 
* 94 and Never More
 
* Quinto Partido
 
* Red Right 88
 
* The Bride of Europe
 
* Cleveland Sports Curse
 
 
 
 
 
===Curses===
 
 
 
Curses:
 
* OSHA - Curse of the Silly Goat
 
* DECO - Curse of the Witch Doctor
 
* DET/BTX - The Choke Artists
 
 
 
 
 
Curses to look for:
 
* The Bride/The Second - constantly coming in second, reaching final round but failing to win, constantly coming in as runners up
 
* Divisional curse - constant, repeated elimination in division series
 
* Party Time - first to be eliminated... party time champions? (table?)
 
* Losing streaks - or sharp downward trends punctuated by a few bumps on the way down - signs of a cursed team
 
* H2H losing streaks
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
other things we can look for:
 
 
 
* unusual streaks/records of one team beating the other
 
* teams that give up repeated series leads
 
* very low ratio of LCS wins/LDS wins, or HCS wins/LCS wins
 
* for each team, for each HCS win, calculate the wait between each one
 
* longest active playoff droughts, among teams...
 
* longest active HCS droughts, among teams...
 
 
 
ultimately, this is going to require the obvious: golly spice.
 
 
 
===Drill Baby Drill===

[[User:Ch4zm/November 2023/Detroit Lore Jam]]
 
 
 
The lore, the memes, the t-shirts, the back-story, the roller coaster of seasons, the unfortunate situations
 
 
 
Mine all of it, but use THIS TEAM as the focus, figure out what to look for by finding all the skeletons in their closet and then going from there
 
 
 
===Delaware Corporate Shells Art and Meme Ideas===
 
 
 
art ideas:
 
* Madoff posterized outline, motto in script on either side, delaware corporate shells
 
 
 
meme ideas:
 
* dela where
 
* it's not about the money / it's about sending a message
 
* "I know a guy"
 
* "We can make that happen"
 
* (similar movie quotes - The Sopranos)

==Featured Games and Series==
 
 
 
===Game: Visualize Your Power===
 
 
 
[[Visualize Your Power]]
 
 
 
This raises so many questions...
 
* First: how did we even find this? I think we zeroed in on the one-point victory, and it just so happened to fold in nicely with the season narrative
 
* Second: we could use better templates. what cup, what season, what day, score, color boxes with team colors
 
* Third: love it, in spirit. but it opens a can of worms. programmatically finding these matches, running golly spice calculations, organizing golly spice data, compute resources needed to do that (although, shoot, we can just sit back and let emmett/seawater chug...)
 
* Fourth: potential to use these to generate or reinforce a narrative thread... might be a good time to introduce other elements to help the narrative thread from getting repetitive, for example, managers and team captains
 
 
 
===Series: Delaware Torches Detroit===
 
 
 
[[Delaware Torches Detroit]]
 
 
 
Similar idea - but this one is for a series...
 
 
 
* Focus is on the Detroit Grape Chews (as good a tragicomic starting point as any, right??)
 
* Single greatest choke of all time (series)
 
* Could also do features of each double-choke series,
 
* Could also give nicknames to each Detroit choke, and each Baltimore choke,
 
* (This is where we'd want to dig deeper into tragic sports lore for some ideas)
 
* Could use Grape Chews choke series as jumping-off points for Hot League teams
 
* (Repeat same with Baltimore, Cold League teams)
 
 
 
Procedure:
 
* Create a plan
 
* Start with double choke series, then move on to rest of choke series
 
** games, context
 
** alliterative nicknames for teams (amazin mets, sultans of swat, whatever)

Get your ass back to these good ideas

2024

User:Ch4zm#December 2024

Big Purple Time Machine

  • invent a time machine to try and change the past
  • everything they do just results in a bunch of alternative Golly universes where they continue to lose the pennant game

Golly Mirror Universes:

  • would require rewriting golly core to do reverse indexing of array
  • would probably be bookkeeping - intriguing idea
  • revives the whole idea of a golly sandbox - different patterns, different maps, different CA types... golly reverse grid

2021

User:Ch4zm/October 2021 Lore Jam

(good point - DET or BTX being up 2-0 in a playoff series is a notable event...)

tool to find these?

Featured Games and Series

Game: Visualize Your Power

Visualize Your Power

This raises so many questions...

  • First: how did we even find this? I think we zeroed in on the one-point victory, and it just so happened to fold in nicely with the season narrative
  • Second: we could use better templates. what cup, what season, what day, score, color boxes with team colors
  • Third: love it, in spirit. but it opens a can of worms. programmatically finding these matches, running golly spice calculations, organizing golly spice data, compute resources needed to do that (although, shoot, we can just sit back and let emmett/seawater chug...)
  • Fourth: potential to use these to generate or reinforce a narrative thread... might be a good time to introduce other elements to help the narrative thread from getting repetitive, for example, managers and team captains

Series: Delaware Torches Detroit

Delaware Torches Detroit

Similar idea - but this one is for a series...

  • Focus is on the Detroit Grape Chews (as good a tragicomic starting point as any, right??)
  • Single greatest choke of all time (series)
  • Could also do features of each double-choke series,
  • Could also give nicknames to each Detroit choke, and each Baltimore choke,
  • (This is where we'd want to dig deeper into tragic sports lore for some ideas)
  • Could use Grape Chews choke series as jumping-off points for Hot League teams
  • (Repeat same with Baltimore, Cold League teams)

Procedure:

  • Create a plan
  • Start with double choke series, then move on to rest of choke series
    • games, context
    • alliterative nicknames for teams (amazin mets, sultans of swat, whatever)
  • Then move on to games
    • we know final scores, so start with one-point games
    • every one-point game deserves some investigation
    • then move on to shutouts or blowouts - any at critical points in the season
    • I think we found the Sacramento Boot Lickers one by looking at a table of W-L, game opponent, game outcome, etc., for each season, season by season...
    • figure out if that was a command line tool, or a wiki template, or what...

Series: Midwest Staredown

The Midwest Staredown

  • I think this is a fruitful line,
  • Keep working it,
  • Add templates for series,
  • Can utilize information we already have on the wiki to find interesting ones

Community College and the bureaucracy

Hellmouth Community College Fire Department

get back to thinking about the weird worlds, campus layouts, divisions

not a gigantic corporate complex, simple 80s community college campus

List of Bureaucracy Pages

Original

Original ideas: User:Ch4zm/October 2021

June 2025

  • Lack of lore leads to one or two ideas sticking on a page, immobile
  • Trying to get unstuck leads to one or two pages having more extensive lore, using templates, building things out
  • ...could keep going
  • ...but stops there, too much work
  • Hard to keep track of the things that aren't automated, too, some things go years without getting updated because I just forgot about them.

Reorganize Team Pages

Following DET.png Detroit Grape Chews 's lead (above - they are one of the pages with the most extensive lore)

Reorganize team pages, starting with DET:

  • General overview
    • History
    • What cups, when joined, name changes, moves
    • Major rivalries and evolution over time
    • Notable achievements, records, place in broader lore
    • Team collective character, notable fandom info
    • Stadium
  • Hellmouth Cup
    • History
    • Chart
    • Summary
  • Klein Cup
    • History
    • Chart
    • Summary

Why reorganize now

makes lore segmented

gives us opportunity to make everything uniform and automated into templates

overview template

(old page, new page, figure out what to port.)

so much work.

too much work.

shadow pages?

Random lore fragments

Grapes of wrath

Silence of the hams (yams) (clams)

Tooling Revamp

gollyx-maps: new maps and patterns

lambda function: assembling standings information on the fly?

star CA: method for initializing patterns for each state (S -> SS -> C?)

August

Maps

September 2025

List of new cup activities:

  • Create new cup page
  • Add new cup category page
  • Add current cup category to every (active) team's logo

User:Ch4zm/September 2025/New Cup Pages

October 2025

Expansion Ideas

Expansion ideas:

  • BTX and BTX2 (overcomplicates things)
  • FWPT -> LIL (Louisville Illusionists)
  • ORL -> PHI (Philadelphia Philologists) (not good)
  • TOR (Toronto Blues Ey)

overcomplicates things, and plenty of other stuff to focus on

inclination is to keep it exactly the same every single year, Hellmouth II, III, IV, V, VI, ...

Records Interlinking

Hellmouth IV Cup/Ranked Seasons

Hellmouth V Cup/Ranked Seasons

Hellmouth VI Cup/Ranked Seasons

Should have templates pointing to prior and next

(cascading templates? inserting a "hellmouth 7 but to roman numerals" template?)

python always easier

Agents

MediaWiki bot, mwparserfromhell,

The exhaustion of:

  • endless prompt engineering, to explain every trivial detail, every time
  • ai falling into trap of same stupid boring repetitive patterns
  • clunky tool here, tool there, tool for this, tool for that, nothing works, everything resets constantly
