I've been experimenting with the new random page generator provided by Wikidot.Com, and I am curious how you like the results…

I did some format changing to the page. First, I alphabetized the list of seeds. Then I gave each one a short, one-sentence summary. I'm hoping this will make it a little more user-friendly. Do you think it works, or should we just leave out the summaries?

Hmph. The more I look at it, the less I like it. It makes the page look busier and I'm not sure how helpful the extra information is. Anybody have any opinions on the summaries?

I'm not sure either way. Let's see how it looks like when there are a few more entries…

BTW, I think it was a good idea to add links to all those adventure seeds to the component pages. However, putting them into the middle of the bullet lists makes it easier to overlook them, so I put them at the very beginning of the "Game and Story Use" sections.

…just opened this and got "Eunuch" "Ferret legging" "raccoons rescued from vending machine" - not so much an adventure seed but a hilarious character background (emasculated in a ferret-legging accident, he became a skunk whisperer…).
