Professor, how do you do this -> Storyline, Pre-Fight Dialogues, Etc (scroll down for dialogues). With this link you not only link to an specific thread, but to an specific reply as well. How do you "view" the proper address of the reply you are searching for? The few times I have managed to do this, I have done it by inputting random numbers at the end of the thread until I fall into my desired post...

There is obviously a secret conspiracy option that I'm not seeing here, similar to that

Well, you can see a post's number when you put your mouse over its reply button, but come to think, it's a bit of a wonder that I didn't have a permalink button until now. So I've just added it now, thanks for the idea.

I don't think the addition should cause any bugs but again if anyone encounters one, please tell me, thanks.

Humm, is the design & location okay for the button?
~~Actually, its location may be a bit annoying, I may be moving it somewhere else~~

Changed it. It's.. ok, I guess? Kind of feels weird since there hasn't been changes made to the interface for so long. What does everyone else think?

It's ok, after all most of the bbs hidden features, are; well... Hidden 20 users online , and 358 thread views

If you want to be old school, then it should go next to the reply button.... Why not putting it in more than one place for a day or two? Or giving it a different color for a day or two, that way it should.... well, be easier to spot.

edit : never mind! I change my vote, I love it under the post count.

GOT TO REACH THE BUTTON!

I like the idea of the Permalink button but I'm not certain about its current placement. When it is part of the left column it looks like it is related to the overall information about the user instead of the individual post. Perhaps it could be placed on the upper information bar next to the Post Reply button?

I'd say next to the postcount is better, since it would be less likely to press it by mistake.

Also, thank you Prof for all the maintenance work!
Do you plan to go on tweaking the BBS? If so, do you think it would be possible to add a page function? Like, every 50/100 posts, the thread would go on to page 2?

OK, I guess it'll be placed next to the postcount or reply button-- will try both for a few days.

Sorry-- Unfortunately, a page function is one of the things that can't be added to the BBS due to the way it's built. I would if it could. This BBS is almost as old as the 2ch system... so please make a new thread when they're are getting overposted.

That's a good point, actually. I should be able to implement a limit to the length of quote that gets automatically posted in the replies.

Ok, I've implemented a limit to the Autoquote. I'm not sure how well it'll do; I've kept its margin relatively forgiving so that it won't turn into a nuisanse rather than a convenience.

Again, if anyone encounters bugs from this, please write back.

[edit] In the previous post, I meant "good point" as in terms of making a safeguard for the BBS system so that nobody would accidentally overleave long quotes. It happens to me too when I'm in a rush.

I've grown quite fond of the long sprawling threads here. They reflect activity and interest! Even though they're a pain in the ass when I'm browsing on my phone they're still somehow endearing. They contribute to the hand crafted, pre-Web-2.0 feel that I heavily associate with this site.

I can understand from a useability standpoint why you would want to change this though. Especially if you're interested in making things more user friendly for new users.

I also like the long 200+ post in one page view. It's much better when checking back old post(at times very old, like the BB thread which I'm proud to have started it) than the typical pages view. People should not be afraid of these behemoths. Ctrl+F is your friend.

Yeah, actually I liked it better when it was something like this. Add a little space between the perma link and the profile button and it would be perfect.

It may fit right in, but maybe a bit too well. The thing about placing it below the avatar is that, as Ishmael said, it looks a bit like a part of the user-data. If say, someone from another site or forum wants to directlink to that post, I don't think they'll notice the permalink if it's placed there.

Hmm, true! But then again, when a regular Cafe user would want to do it, I would think the first place to look is in the bottom-left. That is actually a tough call, easier linking options for regular posters or outsiders? 尊皇攘夷? errrr

Edit: ha, just anecdotally, when trying to fix my spelling just now, I just moved my mouse to the wrong place twice (Profile permalink, then Reply permalink) in a row before heading down to where Edit actually is because I was distracted by having a button (Permalink) in other locations, for what it's worth...

Being an almost illiterate person I'm not sure about what a permalink button is supposed to do, but I guess it would make more sense to have it next to the "reply" button so it doesn't get mixed with the user's data on the avatar side.

Also, while I think in the Cafe's case it should be 尊博攘夷 rather than 尊皇攘夷, I love you anyway <3

...oh but wait. I reloaded the page and for some reason it went back to everyone's avatars gone.... is it based on my ip address? I tried a few different browsers.

Image BBS is also AWOL for me, but to be honest I don't want to cause you a lot of work. Everyone's personalities shine through the text just fine!

Edit: Oh and now it's working as of 3:20 PM...

"Nicovideo Redirector Update" , posted Fri 7 May 06:30:

It's not a BBS change, but the Nicovideo Redirector (it's on the BBS' menu, red) has been updated and it now shows videos directly on the page. Please try using it and if there's any bugs, please let me know.

Anchoring now works; you can link a video by adding #sm~~~ (whatever) to the end of the address: that is http://www.mmcafe.com/nico.html#sm~~~~

Edit:
or, you can add the whole address to the end and it *should* work as well. Like http://www.mmcafe.com/nico.html#http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm~~~~~~~

Will he spin a silk cocoon, pupate on the side of Tokyo Tower, and emerge as a giant, beautiful butterfly?

Toxico: The ~~world~~ site is coming to its end?

Maou: Very compact, isn't it? Right now it functions kind of like a flat image, but that might be changed in the future.

Amakusa: Glad you've enjoyed the map. It blew up a small part of Port Town, just around Temjin's stage from AOF2. However, note that KOF is a parallel storyline/not canon to the other SNK games, so as Toxico said, it never "happened". I actually had it planned for the map, but killed it off since it'll confuse things.

I noticed that there is an actual "cheat code" to make the menu / tool bar duplicate.

First you open the BBS page (it must have the basic tool bar activated). Then you press the button that says "MMCafe", then you'll switch to the cafe and the tool bar will be visible; Finally you press that pic of the BBS and you'll jump into the BBS and the menu will be duplicated. If you activated the Image BBS menu previously you'll have up to three tool bars in there.

If you select the threads or posting options, the extra menu will be there constantly duplicated, but as long as you select something on any menu the second menu will disappear. By that logic, having the main menu disappear every time the main page of the MMcafe is loaded will fix the bug.

The menu is slightly shorter, as it does not contain the entry for "Check Replies". , "Check Replies" pops out another window, and so has no effect on the menu disappearing.

I have just popped up two says two things, ho ho ho.

Firstly, I do believe that since the newly opened youtube channel is fashioned as a feature of the site, it should have some type of permalink in the tool bar or in the home of the site (preferably the main site, since fitting "youtube channel" would be too much so ace wise for the tool bar, har har).

Secondly I have to say that recently I have gotten myself caught up on this... Some characters from that series pretty much sum up my feelings about the cafe and it's members (good personality, pretty, smart, adaptable and you are better off not asking for more details

). Also, any series that features Wakamoto reading a Yakuza yaoi doujin to his Oyabun, or playing violent gang war hot blooded baseball as the ace pitcher or playing the Dracula role as part of a prank to scare off pesky little children has an important place in my book.

And -of course- I also punch fluffies when I'm stressed

Well, the channel is... not going to have too many videos, really. Maybe two dozen extremely short clips up until mid-september, and that might actually be it for the whole year? Of course there'll be a link up, once there's enough videos.

The BBS has been dragging this since long ago, but could some color function or something be added to browse through the BBS pages?

For examples if I go to "Archive" and I click on file "100" within the 2003 year.... and then I go shopping or something, when I return and I sit down in the pc there is absolutely no sign that points out that I am browsing through file "100" on the year 2003. This could be easily solved (in theory(?)) by highlighting the selected option with some type of color.

The fact that you have to keep "where" you are browsing in order in your head really makes it hard to know where you are... I know I have had a hard time when I systematically search a past thread, only to stumble several times in the same page since I have no clue of where I am right now, even when the archives where only numbered from 1 to 9 this already proved to be bothersome.

For the record I just traveled back to the time where you had to download avi files in order to see tournament finals and where I didn't knew how to use the [ quote ] function, har har

Kind of, whenever you press F5 the highlight takes a big hike and doesn't come back. It would be good if that one could be used for the "new archives" ( << New 42 ~~~ 2 Old>> and " open 1 ~~~ 8 " brackets at the bottom of the page).

If you select Old Archives and "open in new window" the basic tool bar won't load (thus, making it "impossible" to go back from the archives to the main page of the bbs without opening it again from scratch. The same happens with topics from the archive opened in a new window.

I noticed too that it would be better if the newer logs are actually viewable from the old archives page as well. So it is--- there's a second page to it.

About the F5 reload, I can try to come up with a solution maybe later but please live with it for now. The only client-side solution I can think of is recording the highlighted area on a cookie.

The basic tool bar, I should be able to fix on the fly.

Erm- What I'm trying to say is that it's not exactly a pressing matter and is not something that will probably will "destroy this message when the count reachs zero". I bet that I'm probably the one that back tracks ancient old year threads the most and even then I don't find this something of the utmost immediate importance (I have managed to live with it up until now, and today's system is much better than the one from yesterday... Thus I'm only advocating by my usual job occupation of staff chief, where my main obligation is to sit back observing what everyone else does and absolutely and utterly crush their dreams / efforts / aspitations tripling they workload while I sit back and enjoy the cookies).

On a relevant note, today I discovered that the one that made the illustrations for Godslayer / Crystalis is named 横山浩子 (Yokoyama Hiroko)... My current busy state prevents me from further searching more relation between that drawer and the company, but I'll write about that on a nail or something..... Any help with this one? A 15 second search revealed that way too many people share that name.

Thanks for the archive function Professor. Parts of the archive make for an interesting slice of pop culture history. Other parts read like an unearthed pile of old, poorly written school essays or, even worse, old love letters. Looking through posts from days gone by brings up feelings of nostalgia and embarrassment in equal measure.

Wow, archives are a real big dose of nostalgia. I can't believe I made so many threads about the UDON Street Fighter comic. I'll read through some of these over the X-Mas break and see how the Cafe has changed.

"Question ideas for arcade guide map" , posted Sun 6 Mar 00:56:

An arcade guide map of Tokyo is currently in the works as a new content for this site. I'm doing a quick reference section right now and I'm wondering what kind of preferences that people would chose their arcades for. Examples that I've come up with so far are below. If anyone has any additional suggestions, I'll try and add them in, thanks.

Current references:
Q1: Which arcades are the overall best?
Q2: Where are the best competitions?
Q3: Arcades are usually loud and filthy. Are there any clean ones?
Q4: Where's a good place to rest and practice alone?
Q5: Are there places where the smoking isn't so bad?
Q6: Are there good arcades that only the locals know?

Since it usually comes up in Nesica x live discussion, maybe you could include pricing?

Edit: Also related, if not covered by the above, maybe include which arcades support NesicaxLive?

Adding Youtube channel and / or website might help as well, there are some that are popular to people that can't go there thanks to that, kinda like Acho.

Thanks for putting together this guide. Sounds like a real labor of love!

Here are some burning questions I'd love to have answered.

-Where can I play Warzard?
-Where can I play JoJo?
-B. Rap Boys
-Outfoxies!!
-Astra Super Stars

I guess I'm basically interested in playing older titles. It would be really cool to highlight if an arcade has some rare games.

I found at least one of each of these while I was in Tokyo, but they were sad and lonely and unloved. Immersing yourself in the environment as these machines blare their attract demos while nobody cares may cause deep and profound sadness.

A pricing and retro suggestion is good, I'll think about adding that! Actually, pricing is already labeled for each of the arcades, so that should be easy. Warzard is.. humm, I can't recall an arcade that has it *gasp*

Website links will be noted.

Thanks for the inputs. The guide was actually in development since last year but it's been in haitus. With Evo-Garden announced, I thought it'd be a good occasion to finish it off.

It'll be an overall guide rather than something that features a game list for each and every store. Because there's over 50 stores on the guide, that'll just require too much effort on updates (note: I'm only covering the shopping areas). However, the guide indicates if the stores have CRT cabinets, so that should be a hint whether as to they have old games.

Noibinobita: Jojo is actually popular! There's quite a few arcades that still have the game.

Rednight: I can't do a Hong Kong guide, no idea. Kinnikuman is still playable at a good number of locations!

Loona: By lord, that's a rare title. The only place I know of is Alpha Station, and they actually still run tournaments there. If you want to see them, they're up on nicovideo- here's the list. The Videos links are on their titles. Use this site's NicoRedirector if you don't have an account.

That's awesome Professor! Thanks for posting it, and especially thanks for posting the cigarette smoke level gauge. I never thought it would be something I paid attention to until I visited Europe and found that 98% of the population smokes between 2 and 20 packs a day. I take it Japan is nearly the same?

Yeah, it's similar.

One of my least favorite things about large game events is how many european and japanese journalists and developers show up, who have to light up IMMEDIATELY upon leaving any sort of doorway. it's disgusting.

I was actually working on the guide just the day before the quake, taking photos and such. The original idea was to release it during spring break so that tourists coming in Sakura season could make good use of it. Didn't happen.

Because of that, and also keeping in consideration that the situation in fukushima isn't contained, I was debating on whether I should even complete the guide. But I'm starting to see tourists again in the city, so decided it wouldn't be too bad to finish and post it up.

Spoon: Actually, I contacted them about the guide since it would be better to have people notice it at an early stage. It's summer time and Tougeki/TGS is also coming up in 2 months.
