Formatting cheat sheet

Exactly what this forum's editor supports — no more, no less. Anything not on
this list will show up as the literal characters you typed.

Text

You write	You get
**bold**	bold
*italic*	italic
~~struck~~	struck
` code `	code
||spoiler||	hidden until clicked

Blocks

Headings with # through ######:

## A heading

Quotes with >:

> Quoted text

Lists with - or 1.:

- one
- two

Code blocks with three backticks. Put the whole thing between them:

```
/command here
```

Links and mentions

A plain URL becomes a link on its own. For link text:

[the rules](/ggnetwork/rules)

@name mentions a player — it links to their profile and notifies them. If
the name does not exist, it stays plain text. That is deliberate: a link to a
missing profile is worse than no link.

Spoilers

Use them for anything someone might not want to see yet — a build reveal, an
answer to a puzzle someone else is working on, a screenshot of a base.

What is not supported

Images, embedded video, tables in posts, HTML, and coloured text. HTML in
particular is stripped rather than rendered — every post is escaped before any
formatting is applied, which is why a post cannot break the page or run
anything in your browser.

The preview is the truth

The editor previews with the same renderer that produces the final post.
If it looks right in the preview, it will look right posted.
