Tell us what you liked about it, where we could improve, and what you learned
How you can help
Play the game all the way through. Do you get stuck anywhere? Is anything unclear?
Finish the game if you only played a few missions: Give some attention to missions 5-7 (which have been tested much less)
Start over fresh with a new account: Like User:OcaasiTWA17 (these are legitimate alternate testing accounts and are not considered sockpuppets)
Try a different browser: If you used Safari, try Firefox (or Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera...)
Show the game to a friend or family member to see how they like it and if they get stuck anywhere

This list is complete and up to date as of 04/01/2015.
Not fixable this version
Lingering Dialog Boxes: If you leave the tour without finishing, the guider dialog boxes will follow you until you [x] out of them (this is a Guided Tours issue generally and there's no easy fix)
Example
Vector Only: If you're using monobook or modern etc., the layout won't work. Almost all new editors will be using Vector, so this is a known, acceptable trade-off
Old Internet Explorer: The game is not compatible with older versions of IE. IE8 doesn't work. Try IE9 or even better IE10.
Source Editor Only: The game doesn't work with Visual Editor. It could, but it won't be fixed until VE is stable and out of opt-in beta.
Example
Mobile and Tablet Formatting Fails: While tested for most modern desktop and laptop browsers, the game is not configured to work properly on tablets and other smaller devices. It may, but we'd be getting lucky.
Doesn't scale to my preference of window size or scale symmetrically (ctrl 0/-/+). FF 25. (@start)
Fixable (working on these now)
mechanics
Reply using edit section links in some places rather than full page edit
Example
There's no way to jump ahead if you are repeating steps or trying to get back to where you left off mid-mission.
If you [x] out of the tour, especially if so you can edit, then there's no way to get back to where you were (see example fix above for a 'skip' option) (should skips go per step, or per chunk?)
Example
Galactic challenge box has only an [x] and a back button, is it clear you answer the question below?
Example
Sorry to cut in, but I didn't realize that "Challenge yourself..." did anything beyond cheer-leading you to continue the game. Thanks for posting this.

Back buttons on edit summary steps are being cut off at the bottom, no way to go back to edit instructions.
warning, only click buttons that post message once?
a way to say 'yes, i've done this already, skip ahead?' (add skip forward button?)
Example
Restart Repeats: If you replay, a mission, the messages will be resent to you (the tour doesn't 'know' if you've played before). To better retest the game, create a legitimate alternate testing account (e.g. OcaasiTWA17) which is not considered a sockpuppet at all.
after replying to "willkomen" you are stuck in an endless loop as the "make an edit summary" message repeats over and over. — Preceding

Hello, I'm not able to play TWA. I'm stuck on the "Login or create an account" popup, and when I press any button, it shows a blue outline but doesn't redirect me anywhere.
