Re: Forum Suggestions and Feedback Thread

I've encountered very slow load times and the error to even load the website at times myself. [Edit: OH! Haha... that’s from times by gone. Okay, that makes a lot of sense.] Wow! What error did you encounter? Are you running into this with any regularity? What country are you accessing the website ...

Re: Kongming's Archives Development/Encyclopedia Project

The concept of plural form is missing in Chinese. The SGZ record itself can be read as something like "Lady Xiaohou giving birth to daughter(s) who become Liu Shan's empress(es)". It is of course respectfully careful to assume that there might be another wife/concubine giving birth to Zha...

Seems like a solid case to me. But it was noted above that we don’t know if she was?

Re: Kongming's Archives Development/Encyclopedia Project

Does anyone know where the C.206 birth for the eldest daughter of Zhang Fei comes from? Out of curiosity I checked Rafe's Tome as it is the reference for her date of death, but it lists nothing for her birth. Went ahead and removed the "C.206" reference while I was in there. But it can be...

Re: Project Feedback: New Romance of the Three Kingdoms Online Novel?

I am just about to ask :P The reign year tool looks nice. But for jianan, I used to remember an apostrophe is needed (jian'an), to avoid confusion between jia/nan and jian/an. I actually meant to ask about exactly that! Another which comes to mind is Chang’an. So I pondered it, and it occurred to m...

Re: Project Feedback: New Romance of the Three Kingdoms Online Novel?

Thought I’d pop in with a little update so it doesn’t seem as though I’ve fallen off the face of the world. I was plugging along on getting the novel ready, and building a tool to manage Reign Years as a prototype of the tools that would be used to edit the novel, and I hit a point where I realized ...
