This appears to let me manipulate the thtmeme though I still can't find a way to directly manipulate the HTML of a specific page.

Digging further I found a drag option to allow me to add custom HTML to a page.  So what custom HTML should I add to get this thing rolling?

You don't need to make changes to the html of the blog. I dunno man. The recommendation of the w3 feed validator is that your feed xml should have something like the following in the channel section:

Quote<atom:link href="http://jtarkpalmerwritings.weebly.com/1/feed" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" />

But yours is an RSS feed, not an atom feed. And it's programmatically generated. So my hope would be that the Weebly software would be getting it right.

You need someone who understands RSS better than I do.

Tark,

Take a deep breath.  This will all be okay.  Starting a game later than everybody else isn't a big deal.  I just added a couple new blogs to the feed yesterday.  You've got all the time in the world (at least until the end of the month).

The master list of Week One winners is up here, listing the 12 games that have been submitted so far and their medals in an easy-to-navigate chart.

Quick suggestion: Add ALT attributes to (at least) the top row of medals, so that when one hovers the mouse over, one can see what they mean. (I'll also note that ALT is technically a required tag, I suppose for accessibility or search engine spiders.)

Looks like it's already a success! Lots of traffic and talk, already a stack of games to read/plat/wish I could play.

Maybe I need to ponder the ingredients more.... (They sort of had me stumped, last week, and then Dragon*Con tore my brain out and I haven't thought much since.)

Good suggestion, David.  I actually did it with the TITLE tag, which seems to work for more browsers than ALT.

Yeah, I usually use both--I'm pretty sure WindowsEyes and other screen readers use the ALT tag; and having done a smidgen of search, I have no clue what "title" is supposed to do for IMG--it's a generic attribute, usable on all sorts of elements, so...?

Anyhow... all sorted, and much easier to review. (Heh... although now I sort of wish the ALT tag had a brief description in it for what some of the more esoteric medals like "networked". NOT a major problem... hmmm, but you could put an onmouseover event that changes the status bar text to the definition of a medal: it's simple JavaScript code that you can find all over the net. But, you know, it's all good--thanks for all you've already done!)
