Hi Jake! How are you doing? I just tried your game and I found a bug after earning the first badge. I was supposed to do an edit with italics and bolding, the think is that I already had bolded text in my profile, so I just saved without editing. The interface prompted me "You "Added bold, italics, and wikilinks". Just click SAVE, and your edits will go live." with the button "go back and make an edit". The thing is that it wrongly loads: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Micru&action=edit
Instead of the correct: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Micru&action=edit
So far it is the only thing I've seen, good job! :)
Cheers, Micru

Hi folks! I've been working for the past 7 months on an interactive guided tour for new editors called '''The Wikipedia Adventure''', as part of a WMF Individual Engagement Grant. The game is an experiment in teaching our aspiring future editors in an educational but playful way.
*This week I need some '''alpha-testers''' to kick the tires and basically try to break it. I'm interested in general impressions and suggestions of course, but I'm really looking for gnarly, unexpected browser issues, layout problems, workflow bugs, and other sundry errors that would prevent people from playing through and having a positive experience.
*If you're able to spend 1-3 hours doing some quality assurance work this week, you would have: a) my sincere gratitude b), a sparkly TWA barnstar, c) special thanks in the game credits, and d) a chance to leave your mark on Wikipedia's outreach puzzle and new editor engagement efforts.
*Please note that the game automatically sends edits to your own userspace and it lets you know when that will happen. If you want, you can register a new testing account just for the game, but it won't work properly unless you're logged-in by step 8 of mission 1 (when it lets you register on the fly).
You can try it out at http://enwp.org/WP:TWA and leave feedback at http://enwp.org/WP:TWA/Feedback]].
Thanks much and cheers!
