Daily Mission Display
Could we set up a daily display somewhere? Such as on the main page or something of the sort. I don't think it'd be too hard for people to update it, a lot of people go to tara and taill.
They usually have that info on IRC, at the top. A basic page could be set up (you could do it). As for the mainpage, You'd have to talk to Kevin or one of the other admins. But the first step is making a page.
I think it would a great idea since I often ask around...then i get lazy and not do them at all once I figure out what it was...x.x...
I just think it'd be nice to have them on the wiki. It's not hard at all to figure out what they are, especially with the amount of people who visit the front page daily, and who would be willing to contribute. So, far I've made the mission list and the page, don't know where to go from here besides updating the actual missions.
I think a better thing to have done was just to add a new column to the existing Shadow Mission Lists and add the EXP/Gold values when they are selected as a daily mission. Seems pretty redundant to have another page, since everything else would be the exact same...
Linking to the redirect wasn't necessary, as that's the point of redirects...
Now, in addition to gathering the data, you should make a page Daily Shadow Mission and give it a two nice tables, one for Tara, one for Taill. The tables should have the basic information on them (Name, Date, rewards, ect) and this would be the actual page that users would edit, or that would get posted on the homepage. Try to make the tables as efficient/compact as possible, as this would minimize its eventual impact on the homepage :)
Please do not neglect to include the Date, otherwise people wouldn't know if the info is accurate.
I'll make a template in a bit.
Unless anyone objects, I plan to put this on the Wiki Homepage right inbetween the news and "Mabinogi World Wiki" sections.
I'm not sure why we need a verbose listing of daily missions, (AFAIK) they are exactly the same in every way but the reward EXP and Gold are doubled. That can be noted where appropriate with one line instead of making a whole page.
What would be useful is if someone figured out a pattern, like with moon gates, so we could predict when certain missions would be, integrate a schedule into the Erinn Timer, etc.
If you think it's better to double the amount of lines for each daily mission, then go ahead. I just thought it'd be easier to have each on a different page, so we wouldn't have to clutter it up.
Wait. What would you guys rather have?
- A large box, spanning the entire width of the page, with the specified rewards per mission level?
- or
- A small box, only spanning about the width of the Server Status box, with only the Daily missions listed? (Missions will be linked, a subtitle shall inform you that rewards are just double of the normal.)
I'll make both types just to show you guys.
I like how number one sounds, but ehh then again Number 2 sounds just as good o.o...it'll help to make a visual @@...
Here's my rendition on Kevin's second Example two (but with exp).
User:Pyrus/Daily Missions
We can also edit it into be a style/data type thing so each mission automatically fills in the exp for all difficulties, and all we need to change is the SMs.
I like Kevin's example 2. People mainly just want to know what the mission is -- the exact reward exp and gold is not that important.
I like looking at the XP simply cause so i know if it's worth running to the board or not to check.
Or rather clicking on a few links here. Might as well have most the info ready.
On the off chance it went unnoticed this was my suggestion.

Okay I like Domi's even more. I also second the idea of a hoverbox with the rewards put in it.
Maybe you should write that footnote under the table and remove the 1. (Not like anyone can get their hand over there or needs to anyways.)
