While I understand the callings of “real life”, it is important that the people who participate are with it enough to get it going and keep it going. I could ring off a nearly endless list of people who are active for one month, then disappear for three, then appear again.

Hmm, I sincerely hope I’m not topping that list, but I have this feeling that I’m beginning to, so I guess I’m in for an explanation as to my abscence, eh? Just recently (about a month and ah alf ago) I began attending my scheduled college courses, so that meant fulfilling student loan payment.

Anyway, I’ve returned here to get a decent start at this...with whatever free time I have, I might as well contribute where this is possible.

Here’s a first, just a few questions: (probably reiterative, however I’m typing this into the late night hours.)

1, Are we preserving the accounts of previous balladeers in an archival page of some sort? Since I understand pawel is probably at the reins of this project now (from what I read in under a half hour) there seems to be some momentum to preserve what is left, but create a more inviting atmosphere.

2. Are we basing CW on a RPG oriented/ storytelling environment, or will there be stories contributed on a voluntary basis? If so, are events such as the gathering scheduled once again appear for the community?

3. What sort of help are you looking for in maintaining the site? I might be of assistance with writing out reports of events or drawing up a newspaper section (which would basically constitute a one page weekly article which summarizes the recent major events at CW, whether it be balladeer stories or rule changes, character deaths, etc.)

4. If a storytelling environment is planned out, will community members be given an option of creating a chain styled storyline (in which one person continues from where the other left off? I know it’s unlikely, but it sounds interesting :)

Well, there’s a start at least.

Osprey, over and out

(...) Yes, there will be an extensive archive for what has gone before. No, Pawel is not at the reigns of CW, he has declined that level of involvement.
