User blog:Spike144/Bloons Wiki News - February 23, 2013

Hello people,

Here is a fast weekly news post.

Bloons Universe

 * Just a small update in Bloons TD5 has been made recently: Now people can see an Upgrade Locked message on the upgrade path that can't be developed further, and also some images have changed.
 * A new addition to the Bloons TD Battles was released. It is called a Defensive Mode, however I can't tell you more about it, because I don't play the game. If you do, then feel free to explain the mode in the comments.

Bloons Wiki

Survey
This is just a small question to all people who read blog posts on this wiki. I mean not only the weekly news, but also other posts of regular users. I would like to know, how you find out that a new blog post has appeared on the wiki How do you get a notification about a new blog post? I check the "Popular blog posts" section, that appears on the right side of any blog post page. I check recent posts through the top menu: Miscellaneous -> Blog posts -> Recent posts. I check recent posts through a link on the welcome message on my message wall. I check recent posts, and I keep a link to the recent posts on my browser's history or on some "favorites" folder of my browser. I check recent posts, and I simply remember the address -- Blog:Recent posts. I follow the Category:Blog posts, so get an e-mail notification when a new post is created. Other method, I will explain in the blog comments.

Tip for Contributors
You can use a colored text on your user page, or messages, or blog posts &hellip; (it is technically possible to use it anywhere on the wiki, but do not use it on articles, please):
 * color

or
 * color code

Examples:
 * &rarr; green text
 * &rarr; green text


 * &rarr; red text
 * &rarr; red text

Note: Many people use the following coding to create a colored text:

The result is the same, however the  tag is not supported in HTML5. After Wikia is ported to HTML5, this tag will stop to work. My advice is "Do not use this coding, because you will have to rework it under HTML5".
