Nice one, hope it brings hands into the wiki!
Regarding missing pics, they're on my to-do, but I won't be angry if someone sighted wants to tackle that one :D

See you around!

Nice.

I've tried to edit one of the pages before, but never was able to get access for that, even after registering on the wiki and so (probably not the way to do it ...).
I'll try again now.

If you need access to the wiki and don't have an account yet just Message me in game and with the following information:

Captain Name:
Password (temporary one works, you can change after I create the account):
Email address (The email you used to create your game account please):

I will get the account created as quickly as possible and let you know when it is created.

if you just place the name of a file without uploading the file, it goes on the list of images that need uploading, which may or may not save you some editing time.

So far, Gruntok is dominating... everything. I've had one or two people say they don't know how to do anything, so start with a wiki account and ask after your first attempt :)

1: Gruntok
2: Coops (not eligible)
3: Bebe (one character spelling correction... hmmm... actually tempted to count this one.)

I started adding the images from letter G onwards. When I'm done with Z, I'll wrap around and complete the missing A-F.

See you around!
