Quick Question
Hello -

Hey, since you're so good at finding info on the Chinese characters, maybe you could help me out.

I have a pic of the guy who's the dealer at the Blackjack table in the Blackwater Saloon (downstairs from the player's safehouse) and he's definitely Chinese, but other than that, I know nothing else about him. Well, except that he tries to entice me to play by calling me a "handsome Blackjack player" whenever I pass the table.

But I have no idea what his name could be? Any chance you might know it?

If not, no biggie, but you seem like the person to ask. :)

Cheers!

 * Okay, I put up the Blackjack dealer in place of Wong Bing on the Chinese Immigrants page.


 * Cheers!


 * Well, I still haven't found his name, but I do have some quotes:


 * "You look like a Black player, a handsome Blackjack player! Yes!"


 * "These cards are ready for your hand! Yes!"


 * He seems to say "Yes!" after almost everything... :D

Sam Wah
Hey, I hope you don't mind, but I replaced the pic you posted of Sam Wah with one that's a bit bigger and has more light.

You can now clearly see his facial features and hat he's wearing.

Hope you like it. ;)

Single/Multiplayer gang confusion
LyHungViet,

{C}I noticed the issue this morning with the Treasure Hunter page where your edits were undone due to a distinction between the single player gang and multiplayer playable characters. When there's confusion like this over the intent of a page, I think it's good to add some clarifying text so that others don't waste effort doing the same thing in the future.

I've made some text changes to a few pages to try to help clarify this distinction. If you have a chance, I'd appreciate your feedback on whether you think they are helpful. I wrote a section on Hobbes talk page detailing what I did. I'd like to do the same to other similar pages if it's helpful.

RE:Andrea Muller Quote
Mate, it's no problem. I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of all the quotes from Red Dead Redemption. I constantly find myself watching the cut-scenes on Youtube so I can make sure I'm right. It's no problem.

Sam Wah Laundry
No worries, man, I'm with you and Link, I think the pic should be on the page.

I defended keeping a pic of Walpi, Arizona on the Torquemada page for the same reason: It's clearly an inspiration for the in-game version.

Hopefully I can get Hobbes to see it as that and we can have the trivia bit AND the pic.

Cheers!

Lee Sin-Lung
Hey, LyHungViet

An anonymous user recently created an article for a character known as Lee Sin-Lung. I don't know if he exists, and, to be honest, I doubt he does as the article was created by a vengeful anonymous user (Former user who created an article, it got deleted but was eventually created again).

Since you seem to be most knowledgeable when it comes to Asian characters in the game, I was hoping that you would know if this guy is real. And if he is, could you write the article? Thanks.

Sláinte mhaith! - Hobbes  (  Talk  ) 17:37, June 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Alright, thanks for telling me that. I've just now deleted the article. By the way, it's good to have someone knowledgeable on this subject, so thanks a lot for the help. :)

Chan Chut
Hello again, LyHungViet.

Sorry for bothering you again, but while playing Free-Roam today I stumbled upon a new Chinese immigrant. His name is Chan Chut, and if you've seen him before or are able to get anymore information on him, that would be great. From what I remember of him, he looks quite similar to Thao Long.

Thanks, and sorry for the bother.

Sláinte mhaith! - Hobbes  (  Talk  ) 00:33, June 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * He killed me in Free-Roam. I did find him in West Elizabeth, specifically Blackwater. However, this was in Free-Roam so he may be located elsewhere during singleplayer.


 * Also, I may have found another Chinese immigrant. Tell me if he sounds familiar: He looks nearly identical to Lee Siu-Lung, but he doesn't wear a cap. All attempts to get him to kill me have failed, as he doesn't become hostile; he simply flees the area. This guy could just be Lee Siu-Lung without a hat, but I'm pretty sure he's a new guy. I'll try and get his name and I'll try to get a picture of Chan Chut.

RE: Hey
Hey, mate!

Well, to be honest, I'm not actually from Ireland. I was born in Canada, but raised in a very British enviroment. My dad and his side of the family are all from Belfast, Northern Ireland and left during The Troubles. Sorry if I lead on that I was from there, but that's the way I talk/write.

You can even ask Jack. I've played Xbox with him and he'll tell you that after getting owned a few times I'll yell out the occasional "Bollocks!" Which, honestly, doesn't sound as great with a Canadian accent...

Either way, when I can scrounge up the money to move to the UK, I won't be moving to Dublin. I'll stick with Northern Ireland, even if it's filled with religious nutters that constantly fight...

New User
Hey! I know you left the message on 2ks4's talk page, so I hope I'm not being as rude as I think I am, but when I edited your post, I just removed the link to the article you requested to be deleted. The whole of your post, regarding the new user and potential problems that may come from him, still stands. While I understand that he's probably trying to help, problems could come out of this. I believe I've seen his type before and after a contribution or two is removed, he'll become upset, vandalise, get banned, repeat, get permabanned. It's the cycle of life on a wiki. I guess I just wanted to tell you that I agree with your post and my deletion of that article doesn't make it invalid anymore.

I don't really know where I'm going with this, so I hope it makes sense. Sorry :S

Image Enhancement
You're going to town with my Image Enhancement category - nice job! I created that because I saw all the work Hobbes and Jack were doing with images and realized there was no good way to identify which pages needed help. I'm also planning to order an HDMI capture setup today so I can get some high quality captures myself. Thanks for the assist.

2ks4 16:46, July 3, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yeah, ammo shows up in inventory like anything else so it should get the same treatment as the animal items, for example. For consistency, it should probably get an infobox like the animal items with picture on top, then fields for the weapons that use it and the price in stores. I just added a note to that effect in my "list of things work on."


 * 2ks4 20:11, July 3, 2011 (UTC)


 * For the bounty targets, I think the category should be added. I believe Jack mentioned he was planning to rework those pages to have an actual image on top, then the poster below. The Revolver bounties definitely need it since most of them default to the "Bad Bessie" poster.

NAT3, Revolver, and "Boosting"
Do you know why you have NAT3 (ISP, Router, etc.)? I've always had NAT2, but when I first started multiplayer I would have connection issues for a portion of the sessions I joined, sometimes ultimately ending up in a Free Roam by myself. My router was ancient, but since I could play just fine much of the time I didn't suspect it. Eventually I switched to a much newer router and the connection issues went away - only very rarely will I be bumped out of a session now.

From some of your recent work here, it seems like you actually have Red Dead Revolver. If so, and if you're interested, I just wanted to note that a couple of users have commented recently on two types of Revolver pages that could use some work: the weapon pages could use a facelift to get the same infobox setup as for the Redemption weapons and several of the walkthrough pages have never been created. Regarding the latter, Hobbes had started a fresh set of pages under the Revolver Missions category, I believe with the intent of replacing the original walkthroughs.

Hopefully this doesn't come across as "tasking" you - that's not the intent - you've just been so busy here recently that I'd hate for you to run out of things to do (and you did say you were bored). :-)

And about that, regarding your comment on my talk page, don't worry - no one here would accuse you of boosting for achievements when everything you're doing is good. The only down side to racking up a lot of edits is that it fills up the recent history. If you were "A Wikia contributor" that would be a pain since we'd need to review all those, but when the edits are from a name that can be trusted it's easy to skip through them.

Revolver Missions
Hey, LyHungViet! I really hope this doesn't sound as rude as I think it does, but if you're planning on writing articles for Revolver missions, could you stick to the way I started? The Red Dead Revolver Walkthrough article is a system I don't like and would much prefer if Revolver missions were written just like Redemption missions. So, just an article and then the "Revolver Missions" category.

Again, I'm sorry if this comes across as rude. I started the articles like that but my PlayStation 2 stopped working and I was unable to continue. I also hope it doesn't sound selfish that I want you to do it my way, but I just think it conforms better with the other articles. Thanks, mate.

RE: Editing
Hey, LyHungViet.

It's no bother and that's perfectly fine. You followed my format (which I took from the Redemption mission pages) great. I'll try to get my old PlayStation working again and I'll be watching Youtube videos in order to help you get these Revolver articles up and running. You've been a colossal help!

Sláinte mhaith! - Hobbes  (  Talk  ) 19:51, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Hey there.
Might I ask what system you play on? Thanks. --With care and happiness,  Supermutantslayer450' You will know the truth... And the truth will set you free.. 00:48, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Wiki
Congrats, mate!

Also, just use the Redemption weapon template for now. We'll figure out if we need to make a new one soon.

As for myself, in roughly 10 days I'll be landing in London, then heading to Belfast! I'm getting pretty excited now. I kind of get worried when I read stuff like this, however. I'll be gone 16 or so days, so I can only help you with this for a couple more days. But obviously Jack and 2ks4 will help.

Thanks for telling me and again congrats!

Featured Article Process
I've been working on adding a Featured Article nomination and voting process for the wiki. It's ready now for release in "beta" mode, so I'm informing some of the more active editors. Initially, at least, nominating and voting are restricted to users with at least 50 main space edits, which means you qualify. If you're interested in participating, please check out the policy page.

 * Some things (weddings, for example) are important to focus on. Congratulations and I hope it goes smoothly. If RDR had existed when I got married I might have been tempted to just hold the ceremony virtually in a private Free Roam session to keep it simple (though I'm sure that wouldn't have gone over well with the in-laws). :-)

Regarding contact - if I remember, I'll send a message to your PSN account with contact info (or you can do the same). Just send me a reminder if I forget.

RE: Articles
Well, to be honest, I haven't attempted to create a page in awhile so I haven't come across the problems you're having.

For a while I was having a problem where the code for an added picture would appear at the bottom of the page code no matter where the cursor was placed on the page. That was annoying, but I didn't get a blank page...

Perhaps these are byproducts of some new changes they've implemented - such as the new profile page, for instance...

I'll keep an eye on it when I do create a page next...

Cheers!

Buffalo rifle
cheers for putting my bit about the 45-110 metallic into better words (Cjbeattie 20:06, August 19, 2011 (UTC))

The buffalo rifle is based on Quigely's rifle there for it will be chambed in his guns caliber which is 45-110 metallic :) (Cjbeattie 20:20, August 19, 2011 (UTC))

Yes,it has the same venier sight,the same global sight wich was rare,the same double set triggers wich was rare,the 34 inch barrel (standads had a 30 inch barrel),and the barrel shape is octagon in stead of circlular the only diffrences is a slight darker colour on the end of the butt and and a gold plate on the but that says MQ(matthew quigley)other wise it is exactly the same. (Cjbeattie 20:36, August 19, 2011 (UTC))

jack was'nt being serious:)thanks for not slating me (Cjbeattie 22:27, August 19, 2011 (UTC))

They said its is not based on Quigleys rifle because it does not have MQ on the side and in real life would not fire 45-110 mettalic (it fires 50-90 as its a Sharps 1874 long range and as its called the buffalo rifle it will fire a big bore bullet (50-90 sharps).but it is a moddeled replica of the gun with the copied mods. (Cjbeattie 19:21, August 25, 2011 (UTC))

Dead links
I saw that you removed some "dead links" from the The Traitor page. I just wanted to let you know that in general red links are not a bad thing - they're used to identify new pages that people think need to be created. There's a report at Special:WantedPages specifically for the purpose of identifying such pages (the report has some issues, as you'll see, but I've been cleaning it up little by little so that it's original purpose can be better realized).

This wiki is pretty mature, so we don't have many red links, but since the Revolver section is still underpopulated it's normal to have some there. One good example is Twin Rocks (Revolver) - I've changed existing links on Revolver pages that go to Twin Rocks, which is inappropriate, to Twin Rocks (Revolver) so that they'll be ready when that page is created.

As you're creating new Revolver pages, it's a good idea to make such red links yourself to serve as a reminder of pages to create later - that way you don't have to go back and hunt down link opportunities when those pages are eventually created.

Re:Civil War
What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach... So, you get what we had here last week, Which is the way he wants it ! Well, he gets it ! N' I don't like it any more than you men.

Look at your young men fighting Look at your women crying Look at your young men dying The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding Look at the fear we're feeding Look at the lives we're leading The way we've always done before

My hands are tied The billions shift from side to side And the wars go on with brainwashed pride For the love of God and our human rights And all these things are swept aside By bloody hands time can't deny And are washed away by your genocide And history hides the lies of our civil wars

D'you wear a black armband When they shot the man Who said "Peace could last forever" And in my first memories They shot Kennedy I went numb when I learned to see So I never fell for Vietnam We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all That you can't trust freedom When it's not in your hands When everybody's fightin' For their promised land

And I don't need your civil war It feeds the rich while it buries the poor You're power hungry sellin' soldiers In a human grocery store Ain't that fresh I don't need your civil war

Look at the shoes you're filling Look at the blood we're spilling Look at the world we're killing The way we've always done before Look in the doubt we've wallowed Look at the leaders we've followed Look at the lies we've swallowed And I don't want to hear no more

My hands are tied For all I've seen has changed my mind But still the wars go on as the years go by With no love of God or our human rights and all these dreams are swept aside By bloody hands of the hypnotized Who carry the cross of homicide And history bears the scars of our civil wars

We practice selective annihilation Of mayors and government officials For example to create a vacuum Then we fill that vacuum As popular war advances Peace is closer

I don't need your civil war It feeds the rich while it buries the poor You're power hungry sellin' soldiers In a human grocery store Ain't that fresh And I don't need your civil war I don't need your civil war I don't need your civil war You're power hungry sellin' soldiers In a human grocery store Ain't that fresh I don't need your civil war I don't need one more war

I don't need one more war Whaz so civil 'bout war anyway?

Hi Ly Hung, I would like to delete all the comments from a blog post dated July 3, 2011. I didn't intend for the post to be a discussion and it is causing conflict as names are being mentioned that are not accurate. Innocent people do not need their names in the dirt. Please tell me how to remove all comments. Thank you very much.
