We will be creating tutorials on the forums and/or the Arma Wiki. Please discuss below any ideas for the tutorials, including where the tutorials should be posted, what should be on them, and how in depth we should go.

Well i think Durf's site has GIF's that can be posted here and on the wiki, and also just saying a quality button layout and how to change the controls so we can just give a quick link to noobs. We can just show or maybe do some GIFs of how to camp and how to do basic traps, this rest comes with practice.

I think if we made them straightforward and logical (idiot proof) that would be best. Step by step instructions, so people can go back in case they need to. Screenshots, and/or GIFs so show if they are doing it correctly.
So for starters, we could make a step by step tutorial for getting started: "So you installed tron, now what?"; taking them through the menus and familiarizing themselves with tron itself as a game to play.
The gifs on my site were intended for a tron school (with grades) and the gifs were all a part of grade 2 (basic concepts). ..I had detailed notes on what each grade would have been, but idk where I last saw them :s
I'll do what I can to help out.

I think the wiki would be a better place to have the tutorials, as its always going to be there, and its more customizable (although harder to use than forums). It appears that there is no Fasttrack page on the wiki whatsoever, meaning that we can start from scratch with how we organize the ideas. Regarding organizing, I think we could do this (bullets are separate pages branching off): Fasttrack tescribe what kind of gametype it is, what controls to use with pic, very basic strategy, brief history, FT competitions - Basic Fasttrack Strategy - go over how to do double and triple effectively, basic traps, basic frontdooring, camping and boxing
- Advanced Fasttrack Strategy (possibly just a link to my How-to-Win series) tueling strategies, pro camping and boxing, quad binding, how to front door well, reading your opponent
- Future of Fasttrack - talk about where FT is today, goals for FT, MLF idea, other ideas anyone has
The nice thing about the wiki is that all of us can edit any part of it. If you guys have any other ideas as to pages or topics we should add, post below, but in the meantime, Im gonna add these pages with the outlines on them, so we can get started with actually writing the tutorials.

I have created the pages I mentioned above, and added in the outline for each page. You are welcome to go on the wiki (make sure you're logged in) and press edit next to any of the topics.
