Right. Although I don't know of anyone ignoring CW, I'm sure that some people

Soory for interrupting - Why should you apologize? Whatever you do is good
enough, we're not gonna ban you just because you make wizards! On the
contrary, wizards are lots o'fun and I personally have six, most of which are
ready and waiting for me to get to Chapter three in my storyline so they can
get involved... (Meanwhile I'm still figuring out Chp. one so they hafta wait
patiently ;) Anyhow, wizards are great and if you like them, do them! Your
towers sound interesting!

I agree. This is a good idea, I see the potential in it.
For example if I don't want Scar to live in the Lion Kingdom for danger of
being found easily, I can have her living near the vicinity of Mephisto's red
castle... (If Craig agrees of course ;)

Well, I guess he's waiting to see if CW really does survive the first few
months. I hope it does and I think it will but obviously it makes sense to
wait and see before giving us a group that couldn't be removed later... (Not
to discourage anyone :)

I can't wait for that either - Craig, I want to see your castles involved in a
story! (off-topic, I know, but they look great!)

Well, what was it?
