Talk:Free Time Events

Official or unofficial?
Is the term "Free Time Event" an actual in-game term (as in, the term is used in the game manual and/or menu options)? Or is it just a fan-made term used to describe these types of opportunities? It might be nice to indicate in the article that it's unofficial, or to include a citation/note if it's official. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 04:18, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
 * "Free Time" is what that portion of the game is called in all 3 games, you see it pop up on the screen when free time begins (you can see that image on all three of the main pages for each game in the opening paragraph). I haven't checked all 3 games, but I just checked dr1 and it's called Free Time in the instructions for Ftes too. I don't think there's a specific term for what they are as such apart from "spend time with x", but since free time is an official term I don't think "Free Time event" needs citation or explanation since it's perfectly serviceable for events that occur during free time. Can I ask if there's a reason you ask if it's an official term? Scottier (talk) 12:11, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
 * Because I wanted to mention it on another wiki (for a trivia point), and didn't know if I should have used quotation marks, to somewhat indicate the term was unofficial. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 07:18, October 7, 2018 (UTC)

FTE Intros
I've noticed that the Free Time Event pages have had a category, "FTE: Add Intros", since 2017. I'm assuming this refers to the short dialogues (before and after the "Should I hang out with X?" choice) which happen before you give a gift to the character. Has the project to add FTE intros ever gotten off the ground? Are there any templates for how they should be formatted? (I apologize if this is not the best place to ask for this; I couldn't find anywhere better.) JudgeDeadd (talk) 00:14, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I have done some preliminary work on this, drafting a proposal for a possible format for intro transcriptions: see User:JudgeDeadd/FTE Intro listing markup test. Feel free to take a look. However, I have no plans to work on transcribing the intros. JudgeDeadd (talk) 10:37, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I've just discovered that there's already an example of FTE intros, on the Free Time Events/Sakura Ogami page, included there several years ago. Hence my proposal isn't actually needed. Refer to that page instead. JudgeDeadd (talk) 12:10, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
