I created a Wiki tonight for BW. Hopefully this one will stay updated. :P

http://thebushwhackerwiki.wetpaint.com/

Anyone can join the site and I will check back every so often and approve those who do to be writers for the page. Anyone is free to add information, especially on the strategies page. This will be much the same as the original EB Wiki, only hopefully more popular, lol.

Currently, it's pretty bare. I've only added some very basic information so far. (Tools are extremely limited with Chrome, so I'll need to use Firefox next time). I will be going through everything in the game over the next few days and will be adding a lot more detail.

Anyone with images or spreadsheets will be an asset. I'm looking at you, Raymond.

Also, could I get a Dev to Sticky this thread?

I may provide some of my information.
The spreadsheet is just a list of information.
Among that are the names of every square, what size Bushes/Beasts, how many CI's and what they are...
A text Map of every square using 3 or 4 letter abbreviations like TTV for The Twisted Vines...
A list of every Quest, some of which include the things tyou get from it.
A list of every Customization Item and where they came from, although some Events ones I have been lax in identifying.
A list of every Quest Item.
And I have screen shots of every square, and many from Events.

The thing is is that a lot of this is not easily usable by anyone but me.

So instead, I think the Developers could do a heck of a lot to make the players of this game be able to help themselves. A lot of the following I had asked for in the first week of the Game some 460+ days ago.
1. Make a tool tip like note appear when you hover over an interesting Hat that a friend of your is wearing, or something in his (or even your) house. The tip would show the Name of that thing and where it came from.
2. Do the same for the actual Customization Bar in each square. Absolutely none of the 150+ squares with their 2,3 or 4 Items lets you know the Name of that Item. For examle, oh that's a nice chair, but oh there are 16 different charins, which one is that?
3. Identify each zone of the game. Perhaps using a check box like the 'show zones' or 'show active quests' box. Make them encircled by a cartoon bubble, or all different, more so that currently, color.
4. Identify where the various monsters in a friends profile comes from. I.E. You compare your profile to a friend and say, oh that's an interesting Monster, where can I get him from? And bring back all the non-monsters, I have no idea why they decided to not show them in the Profile, and if it's because they are NOT Monsters, then why the heck not have a grouping of NOT-Monsters there?
...

A lot of these are Pet peves and things that I have wanted for a long time. A lot of this could instantly answer many peoples questions. A lot of this would make the necessity of me keeping track of absolutely everything kind of unnecessary and make a Wiki also extraneous.

That's exactly the kind of information that *should* be found in a Wiki. Most especially the name of every square and the CI, puzzle monster and bush level from each one. I actually intended to go through and get all of that to add in the coming week. But if you have it already, adding it (especially if you can add the picture of each one next to the information) would be phenomenal.

Preferably, use this format:

[Zone Name]:
- Level/Item Needed:
- CIs Available:
- Puzzle Monster Name:
- Bush/Beast Level:

(Level/Item Needed would be if the level needed a key or quest item to unlock the gate before you could get there).

There is also a page entitled "The Quests", in which my intention was for there to be a list of all quests, in the order they are unlocked, listing the level required and the prize for completing. (I don't think an explanation of how to do them would be wise though, as enough information is generally given when you get the quest.)

I've been compiling a list of screenshots and names for various monsters in the game.

That would be good. I think it could be added to the Zoo sub-page in The House.

I already have a fair number of screenshots for the various monsters in the game, including a handful of the limited-time/rarely-seen ones (like the demons from Halloween).

I've also been making notes of what their names are as well (though this information is not always available due to corrupted/incorrect information in the game).

I'm not very interested in taking screenshots of the zoo monsters, so you guys can do that if you'd like.

Oh, you meant the monsters you whack. Ok. Those could go in the pages for the different zone types. I'm not sure yet where I'll put info on Holiday events.

Pam, once you're a member I'll make you a writer, then you can update any page you have information for. To get full use of the editing tools, it's best to use Firefox. For some reason, they don't work with Chrome. Which page something goes in should be fairly obvious, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask.
