Hollywood Game night

I've posted this also on the Hollywood Game Night Talk page as well. I think the episode grids are pretty great. However, the only thing I would address is to add a sort of guide on top of the grids explaining what all the different colors or the bolding of celebrities name means. That would make it a lot clearer. It would let people know which team won, who was chosen for the final game and if they won the money. Right now, it looks a bit confusing. Hope that Helps! One thing that I would ask your advice on is the "Broadcast' section". i've noticed the edits that user Nick has added in regards to adding different time zone times and the scheduling for season 2. He states that in this past block that two episodes were broadcast each time. That is not really the case as this past monday as referenced by the grid there was only 1 episode broadcast. Also, the program will return earlier than expected after the Olympics which i have sourced. User Nick reverted my edits (I was on my other computer) I know that on other panel and game shows I have seen the usual time slot announced on the official Website (i.e. NBC Monday at 8 pm). I reedited his reversions omitting the Olympic references. I wanted to ask your advice as you contribute to the site and do not want to start an edit war. any help appreciated.!184.160.203.195 (talk) 18:04, 8 February 2014 (UTC)samusek2

I added a key, I hope that helps. I think that the single 8 pm would be fine, but it doesn't really matter to me. ~ Totaldramaman (talk · contribs) 16:43, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Comment

I replied at my talk page, will keep the convo going there if that's alright. Also, I saw your userpage... you know you can have your username changed, right? :P Gloss • talk 03:46, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

I do, I've just had no clue what I should change it to for the past few years lol. And is there anything wrong with a dual header? I mean, "Redemption Island" and "Challenge winners" both have it. I don't see any problem with episode numbers having it. ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 03:49, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

You're right. But what makes the episode number more important than the day number? I feel like they're both very significant. Would it be overkill to make them both headers? Hmm.. Gloss • talk 03:53, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

Yeah it would be a bit much to make them both headers. Some episodes have two to four (as we've seen in BvW lol) eliminations so I think episode comes first. Day branches out of episode, episode doesn't branch out of day. ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 03:56, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

I'd have to disagree with that in terms of the game. The days aren't designed around the episodes. The episodes are planned and edited around the days. Does it make sense what I'm trying to say at all? haha Gloss • talk 04:01, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

It makes sense, but I think my main point is that the article's not about the game, it's about the show. But if we do switch the episodes and the days around, I don't think it'd look as great because the numbers aren't in consecutive order, they're all over the place. And if we make them both headers, you may as well just bold the entire table lol ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 04:08, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

I believe this edit you reverted was actually a good edit. Laura M should be where the IP placed her, she only wasn't because when the table was extended for the merged tribe voting history, she needed to be above Laura B and Kat. I didn't undo your edit because I was wondering if that doesn't sound right to you. Gloss • talk 22:34, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

@Gloss: Well if the pre-merge order is based on the post-merge voting history, then Laura Morett should be placed there. If she should be placed under Kat and Laura B. then the top 11 should be alphabetical order; just my 2 cents. ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 22:50, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

I'm only talking bout pre-merge order. The Laura M vote was pre-merge and should be listed in order (before Laura B). Gloss • talk 03:14, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

@Gloss: But then why is the post-merge order in the pre-merge table? ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 00:52, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

It makes the most logical sense, why put them in alphabetical order when there is a more Survivor-related order to put them in? Gloss • talk 02:17, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

@Gloss: So I don't understand why Laura M should be placed where she originally was? ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 03:33, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Where she originally was or where the IP put here? Gloss • talk 03:40, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

@Gloss: Originally. ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 00:15, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

I don't think that she should be where she was originally. I think she should be where the IP put her (and you reverted). Gloss • talk 05:45, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

@Gloss: Obligatory "why?" so I can state my rebuttal. ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 23:23, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

We just went through my entire reason for why! When someone is voted out, their row should end at the episode they're voted out in. That table is for pre-merge voting results. The order doesn't make sense to have Laura M above Kat and Laura B when she was voted out before them. Gloss • talk 23:27, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

@Gloss: I get that but then why are the merged contestants in the pre-merge table in post-merge order?? ~ Totaldramaman ^{(talk · contribs)} 01:33, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

That's not what I'm trying to discuss here. I'm only concerned about Laura M's spot in the first table. If you think the post-merge contestants should be listed in a different order, that's a conversation for a different place (an article's talk page maybe). Gloss • talk 02:38, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Survivor: Cagayan

Not true. The alternate Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty logo is also being used in the Ponderosa videos. See http://www.cbs.com/shows/survivor/video/qXrvuya8p6iMqzxZm1pyPwhWBGUM3arc/survivor-cagayan-sarah-arrives-at-ponderosa/ Steelbeard1 (talk) 12:11, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Then explain why what YOU SAY is NOT the official logo is used exclusively in the Ponderosa videos???? Steelbeard1 (talk) 15:48, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Colors

But the Playoffs are not the live rounds, thus the same rules and "consistencies" do not apply... lol. But whatever, no big deal. I still think yellow makes more sense but it ultimately doesn't matter. FaceOffTournament (talk) 01:29, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Voice (U.S. season 7), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Something to Talk About.

Replaceable fair use File:SecondChanceSurvivorFemales.png

Thanks for uploading File:SecondChanceSurvivorFemales.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Train2104 (t • c) 23:24, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Temptation row

Is the temptation row really necessary?, its only lasts for three weeks I don't think we need to add a whole new row to the voting table, an alternative would be a note, plus a separate table for the temptation competition in the Temptation section of the page.
