  Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
I would like to take a step toward the New Castle World. I feel a committee should be assembled to decide where CW is going. Therefore, I have started this thread to form the Castle World Committee (CWC). The committee's purpose is not to (...) (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, FTX)
 
  Re: Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
-snip- (...) I agree with everything you've said. (...) I'd like to second everyone on that list except myself and nominate Ben Ellerman as well (if he wants). -lenny (21 years ago, 1-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, FTX)
 
  Re: Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
(...) yeah, and nominate anthony, too. but i thought that'd be obvious.' -lenny (21 years ago, 1-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, FTX)
 
  Re: Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
(...) I'll second Lenny, Ben Ellerman (nominated by Lenny), and you (Anthony). I think all three of you have contibuted tremendously to the community. ~Kevin Blocksidge (21 years ago, 1-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, FTX)
 
  Re: Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
(...) I would definitely like to be a part of a new Castle World site. I think most of us agree that new community features could be incorporated into a website. This is what I am most interested in. I appreciate the story telling aspect castle (...) (21 years ago, 1-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, FTX)

  Re: Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
(...) I think the above system is fair and democratic. I let my name stand for nomination. I second the above names, plus Benjamin Ellerman. I also nominate Matt Hein, the co-curator of Lugnet.Castle, who is responsible for setting up at least 50% (...) (21 years ago, 1-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, FTX)
 
  Re: Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
(...) Well, I disagree with you here Ben. The CBG was formed as an alliance of people who are producing Custom Castle Sets such as my Peasant's Hut and Ben Ellerman's Woodcutter's Cottage (forgive me if I get the name wrong). Currently, Ben is (...) (21 years ago, 1-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, FTX)
 
  Re: Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
(...) I'm unsure on whether I would want to let my name stand for nomination, though. Considering if someone were to second my name, with the lack of time I have to follow community events, I feel I might be ineffective in that position. 1 However, (...)

  Re: Nominations for the Castle World Committee
 
Matt, I think you are confusing something here. Ben M. mentioned that this committee should cover issues of the CBG. The CBG and CastleWorld are two seperate things.

  Re: Castle World is dead.
 
Sava: One of my primary rules for CW is that you do not have any rights to my time. My own laziness is an issue that is being addressed with the new proposal that Pawel and I are working on.
