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. Castle Builders’ Guild is an alliance of people interested in making and selling custom castle kits and anyone who is doing that is welcome to participate. The CBG does not have any standards on what can or cannot be a castle set - of course, we prefer sets of quality and detail. Essentially, something worth the high price it is.

The CW Committee will not be addressing CBG issues, because CBG issues are handled by myself and Ben Ellerman, the founders.

Thanks for the thoughts, however. -lenny


   The first would be standards in which the castle guild would sell their models. Now, what do we want in a model? Should it match to the system I use to write weekly reviews, or a seperate governing system? If the former, we would want an equal balance between the aesthetic qualities

model and structural integrity parts assortment, function, color, alternate models.

or with the latter, a balance between its qualities?

Another question: would guild models have to adhere to the castle city standard? Logically, I think they should. Or, you can sell models in two classifications, conforming models and accent models (which aren’t compatible, but look great on any display.)

Can outside parties contribute to the castle guild? Perhaps a sort of submission standard should be set, and a small moderation committee to check the integrity of those presented models. From my impression, sets would be made to order and shipped out by the guild. (the designer would receive a small commission for designing the set, and the guild would profit to fund future community projects, whatever they may be.)

Well, those are my guesses on the subject, so take them as they are worth.

Osprey, over and out

(...) 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, (...)
