I am reasonably experienced, but a bit of a mess. Prone to sprees of on and off editing, and have done so here on TWC since I want to say 2018. Histories are weird for me because I've been under different aliases that required account changes. To be honest, it doesn't matter.
+
In 2017 he was spurred to engage on TWC by [[Jadli]], who dug him up from a Steam multiplayer community for [[Medieval II: Total War]]. He was patronized by [[King Athelstan]] a few years later. Below is a summary of the various things he's done and participated in, though he is not especially proud of them.
 +
* Participated in [[Hotseating]] after being brought from Steam; rather unsuccessful as the 'meta play' did not suit him (reloads, 'always attack', extensive mechanical gimmicking for best results). Founded [https://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?759482-Britannia-Expansion-Custom-Submod-The-Isles-of-Chaos-(Roleplay-Hotseat) The Isles of Chaos] hotseat, which despite his commitment issue has managed to run for several years on end.
 +
* Before dipping out, was involved in and witness to the hotseat drama that lead to the loss of a Gaming Director for the section and a total overhaul in the section's politics and organization.
 +
* Participated in the Curial Commentary Thread and developed an <s>unhealthy</s> interest in Curial affairs, notable for being one of the odd 3-4 non-citizens to engage in the thread at the time.
 +
* Briefly participated in and won multiple entries for [https://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?802-Tale-of-the-Week Tale of the Week]. Despite an interest in writing, it unfortunately never resulted in a reliable presence for the [[Writer's Study]].
 +
* Became [[Content Staff]] twice. First as part of the [[Scriptorium]] and Wiki Team with interest in the [[Modding Staff]] (never panned out), second as Wiki Team via a long lost, then recovered alias. Both were very short lived tenures ending with resignation upon request.
 +
*Actually became a citizen in one of the weaker applications of recent years. Somehow it passed, and here we are.
 +
*Per above, actually made some wiki contributions; mostly for structure, cleanup and maintenance. Also a skin that isn't terribly mobile responsive that the Site Owner liked.
 +
*Wrote an assortment of train-of-thought blogs that weren't especially coherent, but managed to get an award anyway.
 +
*Co-founding member of the Discord Staff with its fancy purple title on discord. Didn't last.

Mainly I'm interested in meta, infrastructure and information flow. It's all mumbo jumbo so let me expand:
+
On record I've managed to accrue three accounts; one a 2015 creation I forgot about and managed to recover, the second the main alias, and the third a brief attempt to rebrand that was rather stupid and is formally banned upon request. I've also managed to hold several names around the original Commodus brand, a stint in a Majora brand, and now as a humble [[Dismounted Feudal Knights (M2TW Unit)|DFK]].
−
*''Meta'' - Clarify information on the site; its Staff, the Wiki, the Forums and so on.
 
−
*''Infrastructure'' - Improve how things are laid out, set consistency and create routines for people to easily fit into.
 
−
*''Information Flow'' - How everything on the wiki is cross linked and found for clarity. I may 'blog' about this somewhere, at some point.

I was briefly on the Wiki Team, but have mostly shown up as a member. I find it engaging. If you have a spark, give it a shot yourself. Keep in touch with another regular (or just talk to our glorious Wiki Director) and it'll be hard for you to do wrong. Even then, mistakes happen - don't stress.
+
These days I just want to do wiki stuff and play musical barbs in the Curia.
  
−
My main weaknesses are prose; it's a mess, and sometimes direction, I can go on a tangent and then possibly defeat my purpose because I got distracted. So by no means am I infallible. Never worry about coming in and cleaning up my text on pages. It's almost certainly a problem and I wrote to get something done, not because it was perfect (at all). Likewise yell at me if my direction with things makes no sense. I might have looped myself into insanity...

Emperor Commodus
Commodus.png

Citizen of TWC

Badges/Roles:Civitate
Patron:King Athelstan
House:The Imperial House of Hader

Emperor Commodus is a Citizen with focus on gradual and systemic improvements to this wiki. He has (briefly) been in several positions both Curial and Staff, but typically returns to being an independent commenter and contributor.

In 2017 he was spurred to engage on TWC by Jadli, who dug him up from a Steam multiplayer community for Medieval II: Total War. He was patronized by King Athelstan a few years later. Below is a summary of the various things he's done and participated in, though he is not especially proud of them.

  • Participated in Hotseating after being brought from Steam; rather unsuccessful as the 'meta play' did not suit him (reloads, 'always attack', extensive mechanical gimmicking for best results). Founded The Isles of Chaos hotseat, which despite his commitment issue has managed to run for several years on end.
  • Before dipping out, was involved in and witness to the hotseat drama that lead to the loss of a Gaming Director for the section and a total overhaul in the section's politics and organization.
  • Participated in the Curial Commentary Thread and developed an unhealthy interest in Curial affairs, notable for being one of the odd 3-4 non-citizens to engage in the thread at the time.
  • Briefly participated in and won multiple entries for Tale of the Week. Despite an interest in writing, it unfortunately never resulted in a reliable presence for the Writer's Study.
  • Became Content Staff twice. First as part of the Scriptorium and Wiki Team with interest in the Modding Staff (never panned out), second as Wiki Team via a long lost, then recovered alias. Both were very short lived tenures ending with resignation upon request.
  • Actually became a citizen in one of the weaker applications of recent years. Somehow it passed, and here we are.
  • Per above, actually made some wiki contributions; mostly for structure, cleanup and maintenance. Also a skin that isn't terribly mobile responsive that the Site Owner liked.
  • Wrote an assortment of train-of-thought blogs that weren't especially coherent, but managed to get an award anyway.
  • Co-founding member of the Discord Staff with its fancy purple title on discord. Didn't last.

On record I've managed to accrue three accounts; one a 2015 creation I forgot about and managed to recover, the second the main alias, and the third a brief attempt to rebrand that was rather stupid and is formally banned upon request. I've also managed to hold several names around the original Commodus brand, a stint in a Majora brand, and now as a humble DFK.

These days I just want to do wiki stuff and play musical barbs in the Curia.
