I regularly use the Quests database here and on other sites. I have twin screens so can bring up information while playing. I find the databases really useful, but calling up 1 quest at a time on-line is not efficient.
My question is: Does anyone know if and where there is a database of quests that can be queried and multiple results printed? Preferably as a word table or an excel spreadsheet? I'm thinking of putting together an excel spreadsheet of all 7000 plus quests (how's that for an impossible dream!) but it would be crazy to start if some-one's already done it. Obviously all the data has already been entered on this and other sites, but I don't know how to create a printable report from it.
I find the best way to use a day or evening is to run around collecting all the quests I can, then make a paper list which I copy onto a template I have made in Word. I print a zone map on the left, type a list of up to 20 quests on the right and then use the Quest forum to find all the locations. It's a pencil and paper job to line them all up. By then the order the quests should be done becomes obvious.
Each of these map sheets is a very useful but pretty much a single use tool (although I do run more than 1 'toon through them 'cos I'm an old, slow, red wine lover who has stacks of low level alts on stacks of realms). It is very time-consuming to put the map sheets together so having a database available to query and prepare reports from would be great. I know it would be out of date as soon as it was started, but it would still be useful.
Anyone ever seen anything like this?
