As Doran mentioned in his previous development blog, Darkspace Wiki, we've been thinking about creating a wiki.
You guys have long since been telling us that the Manual is far too long to digest easily, and the FAQ doesn't have enough general quick information in it. We listen to what you guys say (most of the time, anyway), so we've gone and created a wiki for DarkSpace.
Doran, Eledore, and Fattierob have moved across the important stuff like the Manual, Rules of Conduct, FAQ, and History Galactica. However, we feel you guys know what sort of stuff you want to read, how you want to read it, and where, so we're opening it up for you guys to add/edit/manipulate.
Not only that, but we're awarding 14,904 credits for the top 10 pages and/or contributors. We may also select two random pages and their best contributor for extra credit prizes!
It runs off of the popular MediaWiki software that Wikipedia runs on, so you should all be familiar with it.
So get your wiki on!
Note: Any abuse and/or vandalism on the wiki will be met with punishment. Don't do it!

12:41:35 Shigernafy: "The prize, in honor of my player ID, is 29 credits."
12:41:37 Shigernafy: "Go!"

Ugh, I was all set to make a fun, interesting contribution to this project until I saw that extra little part about no abuse/vandalism.

There will likely be a Mithrandir Prize for Something As Yet Undefined, with a slightly larger prize, as well.
(Full Name: Intergalantic Bank of Exathra Prize in Something As Yet Undefined in Honor of the Great Admin Mithrandir, but that's just too wordy)

Why such an odd credit number?

Edit 2: I filled in all the ship weapon layouts for all three factions as well as putting in the rank/ badge requirements for each ship.

maybe call it "Advanced Guide" to complement the starters guide?
