Random question brought about by a discussion on plurk to put before the masses. What kind of aids have you created to assist you with playing your characters?

Relationship charts?
Lists of specific information your character uses?
Folders of links to wikipedia articles?

What do you use? Are they helpful or do you forget they're there?

I keep a document of links to threads with summaries as to what has happened during a particular thread. I've written a bunch of other helpful documents, too... like what aspect each Number represents. (96, for example, is hatred/passion. Whereas 39 is not just hope, but also fear. 83 is all his mommy issues.)

The YGO Wikia's only use for me is card information and Astral's observations. Outside of that drenched in inconsistencies.

When I played Dark Yugi, Wikipedia was my best friend for games I didn't know. My other, arguably more, best friend was my girlfriend's rich, rich Egyptology brain.
