 | | Is lugnet.castle the place for stories? —Kyle Peterson

| | | I'll address the issue in which Magnus and Lenny hinted at in other posts: There have been a *lot* of stories written in the past few months. Without mentioning names, the "fathers" of picture/non-picture storytelling have been able to capture the (...) (22 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | I must say that I agree with you, Kyle. Not to say that I don't enjoy a good story! In fact, I enjoy writing my own! (Although I've been rather slack about that, now haven't I...) I think it would be best if the admins made a castle.ballads as well (...) (22 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | | I third the motion for a .castle.ballads subgroup. I love the stories, when I have time for them, and someday I will hopefully post my own. But most often I check out the root .castle just to get MOC ideas, share my own, and perhaps discuss (...) (22 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.admin.general)

| | | | | (...) I'm confused. Isn't that the specific purpose of CastleWorld? If not, we should definitely have such a group. But then would the CW group become essentially an administrative group? I think that lugnet should have a general stories group (...) (22 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)

My understanding of Castle World is a group of people with a set story-line from admins...and then try to recreate different sequences of actions... ie sig-figs and story-lines based on a set of parameters.

Hence, I might build X, and create a backstory to enhance it. That's great; I'm all for it. But (...) (22 years ago, 22-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)
