A thought about some CW issues that may emanate.

I was looking at the Castle World website - catching up, if you will - and I
came up with an idea, which isn't at all refined; just an idea...

Possible Problem(s): One could assume that with all the stories, worlds,
realms, dungeons, waterfalls, monsters, maidens, and heroes, etc., that are
being created now, some conflicts / continuity problems / questions may
arise with regard to the regulations of the CW entirety.

To solve this, why not have something like a "department head(s)" as a
mediator/ decision maker for discrepancies or "issues" that need to be taken
care of.

For example: Let's say "Lugnut #. 1" want's his wizards to be able to fly,
however, this doesn't coincide with one of "Lugnut #. 2's" stories - where
he/she *specifically* stated that was not possible. A continuity problem!

(Some may argue that little things like this don't really matter, but if
you're like me, and really, really pedantic about these sort of things, then
it could be a real annoyance.)

What L#1 and L#2 would/could do, is ask the person(s) voted to/assigned to
[let us say] "Magic, Divination, Life/Death, and Natural disaster rules".
That person(s) would make a decision/suggestion to resolve the issue.

In response to the aforementioned 'Wizard problem', it might be suggested
that L#1's Wizard found a scroll (or something) containing a recipe for a
"flying potion" (I'm just throwing these ideas out off the top of my head).

I'm not saying that *every* little itsy bitsy detail needs to be checked
with the person in charge of that Castle World component, just things that
might interfere with other people's scenarios. It (could) limit the amount
of 'canon' problems later on...

What do some of you think?

(...) Craig and I were talking about this a long time ago, and we figured out that every Realm will have its own set of rules. If Craig wants wizards to fly in his Realm, and I don't in mine, when his wizards enter my realm and I don't want them to (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

I'm just musing around here, having not read everything for castle world, so pardon me if I make some obvious error... As Pawel states in his reply, each domain belongs to a particular person who may exercise complete control over that domain. From (...) (24 years ago, 25-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)
