Hawk
Hello, just wanted to be sure if Isis is 100% mentioned as being a member of the First Civilization or whether this is just assumption. I'm always a bit paranoid about things I haven't seen with my own eyes, so forgive the doubt! -- 18:00, November 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * In the french version of the comic, El Cakr discussed with an old assassin about the scepter and they said that Aset was "a famous member of the first civilization". But as I only read it in the shop a few hours ago and don't buy it, you can wait to have more "witnesses" if you want. I clearly remember that I was marked by this quote because its identified Aset for the first time as one of those who came before.Maxattac (talk) 18:12, November 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay, that's all I wanted to hear! -- 12:22, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

 * A reminder to source your images. 17:52, October 10, 2013 (UTC)

Hello. I was wondering where you got the scan of Hawk from? -- 14:34, October 16, 2013 (UTC)


 * My scanner is not working, so I searched an online version and I found this french one. Maxattac (talk) 14:49, October 16, 2013 (UTC)

Another reminder to source your images. They're useful and I'd really hate to remove them, but only you know where you got them. 16:22, July 18, 2014 (UTC)

Edits
When you edit an article, you must be sure of what you are editing in one place because it floods the activity feed of this wiki. BTW, great job on editing those articles...

Cheers,

THANK YOU!!!
Hello there, Max. Thank you so, so much for creating and article or at least an article-stub for Mary Read. FINALLY!! I knew she was gonna appear in the game but I see she did pose as a man, Capt. Kidd's fake-illegitimate son huh? Nice cover. She was dressed as a boy by her mother all her childhood life to try and get money for their household from her paternal grandmother since her older brother, legitimate brother, Mark died (she was her Mother's illegitimate daughter so yeah desperation huh?) When she was older she even enrolled in the British army and navy too. It's not confirmed or known who her father was other than that he was a sea captain. He may have been Capt. Kidd but it's not known as I said however Ubisoft could be makin' that fictional connection for fun and intrigue huh? Still, thank you! ^__^ Have a good editing day!!

Thanks
Hey Maxattac,

Just dropping by real quick; thank you very much for getting screenshots for all the characters of Pirates. I actually like the close-ups better than the full-body images, cause the latter ones are quite small. That's not really your fault of course, I just wish there was a way to get better quality shots of them. Also, thanks for doing the treasures - what with there being 16 sets of those, that's got to be a lot of work, so props to you! :D 21:05, July 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * I prefer top to toes pictures for the Characters but there are indeed of poor quality, this is why I added the close-up in the articles. Thanks for the support concerning the Treasure pictures Maxattac (talk) 22:05, July 27, 2014 (UTC)

Just wondering
Did you find the treasure images from Imgur? I recall making an album there. :P Slate Vesper (talk) 21:56, July 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * The treasure images are screenshot made on my Iphone Maxattac (talk) 22:01, July 27, 2014 (UTC)

Memories
Having left my iPad at my other home, I'm unable to play Memories at the moment. Would you be able to put up transcripts of the dialogue of the new memories when you are able? It would help out a lot with improving these articles and what I can write down on the Timeline. -- 23:08, August 25, 2014 (UTC)

Heya Maxattac, would you be able to tell me who Yamauchi Taka is? Because it looks to me that it's not Hanzo who killed Sakon at Sekigahara when the mission says it is Taka. Hanzo also died before the Battle of Sekigahara. Is he another Assassin? -- 19:34, August 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Honestly, I don't know who is that Taka, the game says it's a memory of Hanzo but the mission feature that guy. Maybe he is Hanzo before he join the Assassins or Hanzo disguised, it's not said. When I'll get the next 3 Japan missions (it's random) I will have more clues on Taka identity, sorryMaxattac (talk) 20:48, August 26, 2014 (UTC)

I see. I look forward to finding out more! The memory description seems to just have been copy-pasted for each memory though. Was it also from Chaya Shirojiro Kiyonobu's card that he was born in 1582 and died in 1622? -- 22:16, August 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Wasn't it a custom around that time that the Japanese took on another name when they came of age, or if they were bestowed an honorific? This might be the case with Taka/Hattori? :P Slate Vesper (talk) 23:33, August 26, 2014 (UTC)

When they came of age, meaning adulthood. That was not the case for Hanzo. On another related matter, Maxattac, seeing as you're doing a great job both at playing Memories and providing us with the images: would you be able to write down the stories of the cards somewhere, perhaps in my sandbox? I'm afraid the app will get deleted again at one point like Discovery and Recollection, and I don't want for us to miss out on the information. I know that seems like a boring task, but it would help out a lot. -- 13:29, August 29, 2014 (UTC)

I do not use real money, so the Ultra Rare cards and the majority of the Super Rare cards are not mine. I have made screenshots of the walls of players in the guilds, which are classed has the betters by the game. This is why the rarest pictures are of lesser quality, because I don't have them and also I don't have access to their story part, sorry.Maxattac (talk) 16:32, August 29, 2014 (UTC)

Dang. That's too bad. -- 16:35, August 29, 2014 (UTC)

Heya, that info you put on Hanzo's page, did that come from his biography? -- 15:16, September 6, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes, I was lucky and got the card from a free contract this morning. So, the text added to Hattori Hanzo article is a copy and paste of the biography from the card.Maxattac (talk) 16:26, September 6, 2014 (UTC)

Good job
I just wanted to say thank you on all that work you've put into providing us with all those images and information from Memories. Thank you! -- 10:17, October 11, 2014 (UTC)
 * De rien, my pleasure, de nada, ... Maxattac (talk) 21:13, October 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * Like Sima said, props and such for your work on Memories. Just stopping by with some tips. When uploading files, use "png" instead of "PNG"; I will rename them if you forget. Also, avoid using extravagant lettering in file names; "Altair" is more common and easier to type than "Altaïr". While we do use the latter in actual articles, using them in file names could lead to broken file names. Same goes for accents over "e" "a" "o" and such...like Élise, Márquez and Antó. 00:37, October 15, 2014 (UTC)

Database entries
Heya. I noticed you've added some new entries into the Database/People (ACU) list. I was wondering whether you were also going to create the actual pages so that they show up in the list. I would do it myself, but obviously I don't have them in my Database, for whatever reason, so I can't type out their entries. As it is now, the page is a mess, really. Nesty Contact me! 16:35, February 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * In addition to that, typing out the first clause or sentence isn't really that productive. Nesty  Contact me! 16:38, February 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * I'll get that fixed with few bits of coding once the images are in. Also gonna type out full entries for the cocked-up ones. -- Kainzorus Prime ⚜  Walkie-talkie  16:41, February 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * I have only access to the database in French, this is why I only add the first sentences of the entries, because I don't want to add rough translations to the wiki articles. Sorry Maxattac (talk) 16:44, February 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * Very well, in that case I haven't said a thing. Ugh. I just wish I had the damn entries myself... Nesty  Contact me! 16:46, February 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * Sorry to butt in, but Maxattac, how did you manage to get those unedited renders of the ACU characters (like the Marie Levesque one)? Kain's version always have Ubisoft's silly Animus effect applied to them and I'd personally prefer clean renders. Just wondering if there is a way Kain can get to those. 16:48, February 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * On my Iphone, I used the database of the Companion App which have no animus effect and made screenshots Maxattac (talk) 16:56, February 15, 2015 (UTC)

Nurgüi
As you may be know, Assassin's Creed Memories is closing in March. I saw all the images you put up from the game, so I know you can help us out. Nurgüi's article needs a gallery, and the main image needs to be replaced by a picture of him as he appears in the missions. Could you please upload more images of Nurgüi on the article page? My game stopped working so I am unable to do so. Toolen (talk) 19:22, February 18, 2015 (UTC)


 * Sorry I don't have Nergui card and can't access the card galeries of the other players anymore and do screenshots of their walls. Maybe the list of the top players will reappear during the final tournament, who knows. Also, if you have the evolved card and if it his one of the three cards which is featured on your wall, give me your player name i'll make a screenshot of it. Maxattac (talk) 21:23, February 18, 2015 (UTC)

Shao Jun
Max, man, let me kiss you. Where did you get that glorious HD image of Shao Jun? Is that from the official Assassin's Creed Chronicles release image? Anyways, I'm totally rendering that for her article :D (unless you're already on that?) Thanks so much for uploading it. 21:46, April 7, 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you, better late than never, I'm trying to do some render these days. I used the picture from the game cover even if the shadows are not ideal. Maxattac (talk) 16:37, April 21, 2015 (UTC)

Sourcing
Max, please refrain from creating memory articles until after a game has released. You should also keep in mind to source your info and articles properly. Again, an unreleased game is not a proper source. 11:22, April 21, 2015 (UTC)
 * The game scheduled launch is April 21 in US, so today. If I'm not mistaken, it's not unreleased. Maxattac (talk) 11:39, April 21, 2015 (UTC)
 * Hey Max. Let me just starting off by saying I am sooo sorry. I had gotten very little sleep last night and I had no reason to blow up at you like that. I checked with a friend and he said Xbox got the game about 4 hours before I messaged you. Sometimes I forget that different consoles have different upload times. I do want you to keep in mind for future articles about proper sourcing. Once again, my sincerest apologies for the previous message.  Stormbeast   ♉  The Helpful Place 15:35, April 21, 2015 (UTC)\
 * No offense taken since I didn't have the game at the time as I live in France, I just watched the gameplay videos on youtube and posted the info because the game was scheduled to be released today in America. I have no patience and can be a little obsessive when I like something. Happily since these dark and frustrating times of watching youtube, I have found a way to get the game one day early and before the european release.^^ Maxattac (talk) 16:46, April 21, 2015 (UTC)

ATA Source
It's this Twitch stream where ATA got their information from. Just skip to the bit where they talk about the characters (around the 40 minute mark they talk about Henry, I think). Please adjust the sources on the articles accordingly. Since the stream's in French, that might work to your advantage since you can translate more accurately than I can :) 16:53, July 14, 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I'm watching it. Maxattac (talk) 17:16, July 14, 2015 (UTC)

Charlotte Gouze
Hey, Max!

Quick question: where did you find out that Charlotte Gouze was in a relationship with Augustin Grisier? Was that in like the documents you found after renovating the Café Théâtre? Thanks for reading :) 21:41, August 14, 2015 (UTC)


 * If I recall correctly, in a talk between the servant girl of the Café Théâtre and the intendant. The girl gossiped about seeing Grisier and Gouze being together during the night and that she heard Grisier crying about the closure of Paris convents with Gouze trying to comfort him. You can check to be sure because the memory is not fresh in my mind as it was some month ago now, but the talks between the intendant, the servant and the cook lady are random so you maybe have to wait a little before you get the right one.Maxattac (talk) 05:12, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Hello! I have a quick request!
I am a staff member at Wikia and I am helping the Game Team with a project. I am hoping to find community members here at Assassin's Creed Wiki who are planning to play Syndicate. If you are, could you briefly tell me why you are looking forward to it, and why you love the franchise? Thanks so much! Pinkachu ( talk ) 23:56, September 29, 2015 (UTC)

Concept art renders
Hey Max,

So uh, not to put you in your place, but I'm not a very big fan of concept art renders. I don't mind the ones from Chronicles China so much, cause they're quite solid and clearly-defined, but I'd rather the more painterly ones like Arend Schut and Cunningham keep the background. It's a personal preference, so you can ignore this, if you want. Just wanted to let you know ^^; 12:07, October 6, 2015 (UTC)

Spoilers
Max, please refrain from adding information from the game before it's been officially released. 14:23, October 18, 2015 (UTC)
 * I refrained myself, I only added two very minor point and kept the major spoilers from the video Maxattac (talk) 14:29, October 18, 2015 (UTC)


 * I appreciate that. Sorry if I came across as terse ^^; 14:40, October 18, 2015 (UTC)

Database Pictures
Heyo Max!

I was wondering if you could get pictures of the other database entries (like Agnes Macbean, Nigel Bumble, Ned Wynert, etc.) as well? That'd be really useful, since we've very little in-game images right now and we could use them on the articles until we have replacements. Thanks for reading :) 12:49, October 30, 2015 (UTC)


 * Those pictures I previously uploaded came from the French wikia, thanks to a guy named Linkpogo. Sorry, I'm not the original uploader. If you are still interested, the guy added some other pictures from the database today... Maxattac (talk) 22:38, October 30, 2015 (UTC)


 * Oh, I see, that's okay. Very well, we can use his pictures for now then. 22:46, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

Sun Yat-sen = Templar?
Hey Max, could you please clarify for me if this dude is a Templar? There was someone asking about this person on the guy's talk page, but since someone removed him from the navbox and you've since restored it, I'd like to know just so the relevant categories and era icons can be put on his article. Slate Vesper (talk) 14:33, April 27, 2016 (UTC)
 * , the answer is in this preview page... Maxattac (talk) 15:30, April 27, 2016 (UTC)

American Templars
Hey,

I was about to suggest the creation of an "American Rite of the Templar Order" article when i saw you adding the American Templars category. A lot of the Modern Day Templars are American, should we start adding them? DipsonDP (talk) 23:26, July 28, 2016 (UTC)


 * Sorry Dipson, I didn't see your message. I don't know if the American Modern Day Templars are also part of the American Rite, because I have the feeling that after WWI the Templars are more international than before, specifically with the founding of Abstergo. Abstergo is under the control of the Inner Sanctum which is also in control of the whole Order, so the question is; their American employees, are they members of a specific rite or directly under the control of the Sanctum and consequently part of a "supranational" Rite, like the UN of the Templars ?Maxattac (talk) 11:07, September 25, 2016 (UTC)

Cudgel Cormac
Isn't Cudgel his real name? i wondered why you wrote it in quotation marks. Marcos Martín 02:31, September 25, 2016 (UTC)


 * No, Cudgel is not his christian name but rather a nickname and this is confirmed by Tweed when he told to Abraham to deliver a letter to Cormac. Furthermore, this is pretty obvious when you search for the meaning of Cudgel in English.Maxattac (talk) 10:57, September 25, 2016 (UTC)

Durga
I see you've claimed that the First Civ entity from Brahman is Durga. Do you have a source for this? -- 16:51, November 21, 2016 (UTC)

Victoria Bibeau Image
Hey Max,

Now, this might seem a tad hypocritical of me, but I don't know if we should be editing images from the comics too much. Yes, I erased the text bubbles and recreated the shape of Bibeau's hair based on the other panels, but I don't agree with your addition of the pupils because none of the characters' eyes in the locus comic are drawn that way. It's a stylistic choice of the artist and I don't believe we should be messing with that. Thanks for reading. 16:17, December 15, 2016 (UTC)
 * As you wish, it just that she looked like a blind woman without her pupils and IMO it wasn't an important alteration to add them on her portrait Maxattac (talk) 23:29, December 15, 2016 (UTC)

Moussa, Lin, Nathan
Hey Max,

Please source the images of Lin, Nathan and Moussa to the site where you found them. "Assassin's Creed (film)" is not an adequate source since these images are clearly promotional ones rather than screencaps. Sorry to be difficult about this, but it's one of my pet peeves. I like to know where stuff comes from. 13:02, December 19, 2016 (UTC)

Aguilar & Maria
Hey Max,

Based on what I saw in the movie, I don't think there's enough basis for us to state in Aguilar's article that he and Maria were in a relationship. Unless the novelization confirms this, of course; If so, you should definitely source that. If not, then it should probably be removed cause it's just a tad too speculative. Get back to me when you can, okay? 19:37, December 27, 2016 (UTC)

Movie novel
Hello Max, I have seen that you are reading the novelization. Could you tell me to what extent it solves the holes in the movie and adapts to the canon? A greeting ;)  Spanish assassin ( Talk ) 11:04, December 29, 2016 (UTC)
 * In fact, as of now I just read the last 1/3 of the book (the bonus chapters featuring the sessions of Emir, Nathan, Moussa and Lin in the Animus). Regarding the adaptation itself (of which i just had read a handful of chapters for now), yes Golden tries to flesh out the story of the film and to link it more to the already existing canon, principally because you can read the characters' thoughts which isn't possible in the movie.Maxattac (talk) 14:21, December 29, 2016 (UTC)

Il Sparviero Image
Hey, I noticed that almost a year back, you added this image:



to the article of Lo Sparviero.

Do you have any source that says this is the canonical appearance of this customizable character? Because if not, we shouldn't be presenting any face exclusively as though it is the canonical face. Sol Pacificus (Cyfiero) 08:30, January 1, 2017 (UTC)


 * My source is the game, the portrait can be seen during the very first mission, when the player is taught how to play.Maxattac (talk) 01:52, January 2, 2017 (UTC)
 * The character face is customizable. That they chose this particular face to be used in the tutorial doesn't necessarily mean that it's meant as the canonical face. They could've simply used it because they needed to use a face and chose a base, default one, without meaning to declare it as the canonical one. It's not explicit. Sol Pacificus (Cyfiero) 02:45, January 2, 2017 (UTC)
 * Almost every main characters is customizable in the AC franchise yet on this Wiki we assume that their default outfit is their official outfit. Why the rule that apply to their clothes shouldn't be valid for their faces?Maxattac (talk) 03:09, January 2, 2017 (UTC)
 * Actually, I disagree strongly with the assumption that the default outfit is always the canonical outfit they wore through all memories from start to finish, especially since Ubisoft had the sense to make the Armor of Altaïr Ezio's canonical outfit by the end of the game.

However, even if I agree with that policy, it can be argued that in those cases, we just have to go along with an outfit in order to provide images and not be so concerned with 100% canonicity. In this case though, we don't necessarily have to choose a face.

I know Wookieepedia's a different wiki, but I take my precedent from there since Star Wars has had many RPG games with customizable faces, and so a huge history of debates over which faces to use. Why not provide all the faces on the article? Present them as the possible faces of the character? Why do we have to choose one over the others? Sol Pacificus (Cyfiero) 03:54, January 2, 2017 (UTC)
