Its on times like these when you wish that we weren't in BST! (I know the wait would just be as long, but its pschological!)
because then it would have been 9AM instead.
Tomorrow morning at 9:30 I will be ready, I will have eaten, got enough supplies for the day, got the Coffee on, and a couple of energy drinks in the fridge, although I won't be able to play solid for the whole day like, I will be giving it a good go!

I can't do 4 days straight, the wife would kill me >.< I can't even do 1 day straight, I am going to enjoy the game and take my time, I rushed through v1.0 and got to the point of logging in just to wonder around aimlessly (then again it sucked) By the way, I was going to add your "Prologue" you posted ages ago onto the website at some point, once I created the section, in fact that is what I am going to do today if I can stay awake long enough, work on that website and polish it up a bit. |

Haha, fair enough I will probably be working on the part where you can upload your own fanfiction soon anyway, once I got the database sorted out >.<.
I was going to have as much information as I can about the different roles as possible, I know there are many wiki's out there but its nice to have our own chunk of the web for it.

I would also like a lore and history section if possible to keep all the tidbits I find in one place

Yes! That's the sort of thing we need!
Just something to help not just be another "ffxiv fansite"

I am liking the layout of the website, can't wait to see the features on it, (next time I am round Duke's I will have to see if I can have a peak)
Oh now that was a nice touch, the background images changes each time.

The background is controlled via a script and is global on all pages, I could either have just 1 image, or no image, so I thought I would go for a random image system. I can change this to allow certain pages not to have a background.
If you want to do some graphic work, that would be great, I could give you the dimensions of all the images used (border's ect) I am a programmer not a designer, the website can prove that!
Graphics Dimensions:
Title Image: 780px × 196px
Border Art: 7px x 7px
Width of main content Box:
[Border 7px] [main content 986px] [border 7px]
Any content within the main box should be less then 986px for best results.
