Template talk:DYK

To submit facts, create a new topic with your list of facts in it. Your list of facts doesn't need to follow a specific format; just listing facts without formatting them as questions is fine. Facts should adhere to these guidelines:

• Make sure your facts aren't on the list already.
• If a fact is hard to verify and currently doesn't have a source on wiki, you should include a source with your list.
• What makes a fact "good" is subjective, but in general, facts should not:
  • Be about numbers with no real significance, e.g. "Sprockets costs $620 on Hard in BTD6"
  • Be about things that are really obvious and/or easy to observe, e.g. "Apopalypse mode is represented with a black Bloon with a skull and crossbones"
  • Have too many qualifiers, e.g. "Monkey Town is the most expensive path 3 tier 3 upgrade in BTD6"

If a submitted fact is added to the list, an admin will edit the topic to add a strikethrough over facts that were added.

Blade Shooter in BTD3 also reduces cooldown by 5 frames. Not adding the part about the old NK login system since it requires you to write the links to other profiles in a specific way in order for it to work, and lives in endless mine is easy to observe. po●la●vux 12:06, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
