| Posted: | | | | Taken out of the contribution rules: Quote: For animated films or voice-only roles, use the "Voice" checkbox. If puppeteers are included in the end credits include them and append (puppeteer) at the end of the role. Why do we have to enter one thing and got a check box for the other? Maybe someone knows and can tell me. If there is no specific reason, I'd like to request a check box for it. Please vote for your preference. Of course also every useful post is appreciated. |

| Posted: | | | | I can't remember ever appending a role with (puppeteer) nor do I recall seeing it in anything I've downloaded. How often does this come up as an issue? | | | ...James

| Posted: | | | | I see it added quite often. I also see times when they don't append (puppeteer)... but obvious a puppeteer role. Which I have always (and will as long as the rules read this way) voted no. So yes... I do believe it should be added. Definitely easier then typing it out. | | | Pete |

| Posted: | | | | If they don't I always vote no... since that IS what the rules tells us to do... Append it to the roles. | | | Pete |

The way I see it the puppeteer designation has been put in the rules in such a way that if and when Ken decides to make it a checkbox he can easily convert the existing designations as he has done with voice roles in the past. Personally I hope this will be one of the features in the next version. |

Not true. Way back when, we used to append the role with (voice) just like we do with puppeteers. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

Exactly what I was referring to; we used to append roles with (voice) and at some point Ken decided to change that into a checkbox. My feeling is that this could be the case for puppeteer as well. As far as I remember the puppeteer rule was later, but if you say this was not the case then I stand corrected. |

The same applies to puppeteers. | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!! CBE, MBE, MoA and proud of it. Outta here
