Oy, there's a lot to keep track of. |
That's why we have spreadsheets. Cheers, Michelle |
Yeah... my problem with spreadsheets is the exact opposite problem I have with everything else: when I start using one, I have to train it until it can sit, beg, roll over, and play dead on command. What I mean is, it's not enough for me to have little boxes to hold data. I have to find ways to manipulate, sort, and process that data. For example, if "height" is one of my fields, I'll inevitably put in a function to calculate my characters' average height to ensure it's in line with what I feel the average height should be. Which means I can't just use ft'in"; I have to use inches (or in this case, centimeters - which means that my American brain requires me to write *another* function that converts centimeters to ft'in" so I can relate to it). And then there's all the fun things you can do with text manipulation. I'm sure you know the feeling, Brandiwynš¶ , but right now everyone else is shaking their heads going, "what the hell." |
I completely understand. Light Strikes |
