User blog:ChaoticCrush/Consistent Format

Rolento created a blog a couple of days ago addressing the problem with how inconsistent many level pages are with their summary paragraphs. We have both decided it's best to stick to the same format just for consistancy reasons. I assume many of them are different because different people edit differently.

The following is the explanation on what we feel is best to do for each level and why. This is copied and pasted from comments in Rolento's blog post here.

"Generally, this is how it should go. Level (#) is the (number) level in episode name, the number overall and the number level type level. To pass this level, you must (clear x jellies/collect x candies/combinations/bring down x ingredients) (and) score at least (X amount of points) in (#) moves or less. (For moves levels:)Sugar Crush will activate all special candies when there are no more moves left/(for jelly levels:)When you have extra moves left in this level, Jelly Fish will help you eat candies and give you extra points/(for candy order/ingredients levles:)When you have extra moves in this level, Striped Candy will be automatically made and give you extra points./(for timed levels:)When time runs out, all special candies are activated and then all +5 Candieswill turn to Wrapped Candy and automaticallyactivate.

Moves level Example: Level 122 is the twelfth level in Peppermint Palace, the one hundred and second level overall and the thirteenth moves level. To pass this level, you must score at least 40,000 points in 35 moves or less. Sugar Crush will activate all special candies when there are no more moves left.

I say this because it's good to keep things organized. I feel it's redundant to say "is the  xxxxx level in candy crush saga" as we all know it's this game. That's why I replace it with "overall."

Plus, saying "must" instead of "should" is important because you have to complete the tasks you're told to to complete the level, it isn't a "should" or "shouldn't" situation.

Jelly level example: Level 382 is the second level in Licorice Tower, the three hundred and second level overall and the one hundred and sixty-second jelly level. To pass this level, you must clear 21 jelly squares and score at least 45,000 points in 40 moves or less. When you have extra moves left in this level, Jelly Fish will help you eat candies and give you extra points.

Same thing really just different level type. I do it this way because it gets out all the "level" information at the beginning instead of jumping from saying "level xx is the blank in episode blank. to pass this level etc. it is the blank level of candy crush etc."

This keeps it organized and also, it flows. "...sixty-second jelly level. To pass this level you must clear 21 jelly squares and etc..."

This way, people know it is a jelly level by finishing the first sentence but without choppy sentences like, "It is a jelly level."

Obviously depending on the level type you will either use the jelly fish line, the striped candy line, or in moves levels cases just the "when there are no more moves left" line.

I try to always do it this way when I edit pages because I feel it looks the nicest and sums up the general information quickly and neatly. I think the way you proposed is too choppy and some of it is unnecessary."

If you make very slight alterations here and there it's not a big deal but I believe having continuity between levels and their setups for their first paragraphs is important and neat on our part. If you want you can always go to the later levels (I have edited levels 486-500 in this format) and see it and copy the format when doing another level.

Rolento and I thank you and no one has to go out of their way to change every level but if you are ever editing a level page and feel like it, feel free to change it to this format. I hope everyone's alright with this, as I feel it would only benefit us in small but appreciative ways.
