:I was confused about this too, but then noticed the draft task: Pig the dice game/Player, which also simulates the player. --[[User:Loren|Loren]] 05:46, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

== table of contents ==
 
I believe a &nbsp; TOC &nbsp; (table of contents) &nbsp; is automatically built when there are at least four entries (or section headers). &nbsp; There is also a way to force a &nbsp; TOC &nbsp; by using the &nbsp; <big><big> <nowiki> __TOC__ </nowiki> </big></big> &nbsp; HTML tag (or whatever it's called). &nbsp; The before and after characters are two underscores/underbars &nbsp; (<big><big>'''<b>_</b>'''</big></big>). &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 05:25, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
