What do you guys think?
It's long overdue, IMHO. The strange thing is the inclusion of all the non-official stuff.. Tom has said a bunch of times that EC isn't 'canon', yet it's there... as is all the GWFZ stuff, which is clearly fan-made.
I'm glad it is (gives some background on stuff I don't have), but it's really, really odd.
The set up and such has a ways to go (I found a few incorrect and broken links just in the 5 minutes I poked around at it), but it's a good concept that I hope ends up set up well.

I said this on the main board, but...if it's not open-ended and user-editable, it's not a "wiki." I like the concept, I just wish they'd call it something else.
Now, does this mean it's no longer possible to view a GWF guy's stats Online? The Gallery links now take you to the "Wiki" page.

I checked around and didn't see any links for the stats. I have no idea why they'd take it off

The other thing I noticed is that for cards that are available for purchase online but that you haven't actually purchased, the picture is a box that says 'buy this set online'. Understandable, but sad.
I know what you're saying about calling it a wiki... I guess time will tell if they mean it to be a wiki, or if it's really the 3rd (or 4th now?) edition of the GWF handbook in an online form... I suspect the latter, to be honest.

It's the latter IMO. And I'm definitely bummed about the lack of stats. That was a big part of the reason I purchased online stuff anyways.

I'm looking at the gallery entries right now and it works like it always has for me. I also agree that the term "wiki" is misused here, but it looks great and is an incredible tool for COTG fans. I've spent more time at COTGonline in the past couple of days than I have in months.

They fixed the problem. There was an issue but it's been corrected.

Yeah, B-Mack must have come over here and read this thread... he specifically addressed everything we wondered about in a recent post.. nice, that.
