Come on, talk about it, give me feedback ... :> --Rhenaya 17:08, 5 March 2009 (EST)

- I think you misunderstand the use and purpose of wikis. People generally only use talk pages when they have a question or criticism about the content of the related page. The point is to flesh out and perfect information about the topic, not congratulate the writer(s), who will ultimately be anonymous unless people feel like skimming the page history in detail.
- As long as I'm here... I don't have a problem with your demo per se, but it seems rather specific. It might be more useful to explain the principles behind using cave-ins to pierce an aquifer so people can extrapolate it to as many layers as they need to. Keep the demo as an example thereof.
- The diagram from the forum post is far more useful than the map uploads - add that to the wiki page.
- Also, it would help immensely if you used the default tileset instead of a custom tileset for any images. It took me 5 minutes to figure out those were stairs.

- Consider using a pump to start draining the first level into the second. You can get by using just one cave-in for n levels that way. VengefulDonut 17:56, 5 March 2009 (EST)
- exactly the wiki is to make things better, and i want to see what i could do better if i do another guide like this :> so i want some feedback ;) --Rhenaya 05:21, 6 March 2009 (EST)
I tried this and the caved-in material became more aquifer-bearing soil. What did I do wrong? Random832 18:11, 5 March 2009 (EST)
- from the cavein stuff the outer ones are next to the aquifier, also they will show up as damp as long 1/7 or more water is above. if you look in the guide you will see i cave in 7x11 but only dig out 5x9 because the outer walls are next to the aquifier. --Rhenaya 05:21, 6 March 2009 (EST)
Thanks for the explanation, I think it was just the water on top (and it draining down into the stair i dug). Why does the water go on top of it? Random832 11:04, 6 March 2009 (EST)
- make yourself a little experiment :p fill s glass with water untils full, totally full, then throw things into the water .... where does it go? just disapears or spill over?
