Hi Pat,

I think the goal is to create a sort of site akin to Castle World, where
people can bring their creations together to exist in a more closely-knit
"galaxy." I'm sure there will be links to websites, but I think it would
also be fun to have perhaps some more directly-related sites as well. I
personally have a few characters that I'd like to toss into the fray.

I can't answer your question regarding the status of the space station, but
I'm sure it would be welcome once it were finished.

I don't think all of these questions have necessarily been decided, either.
I think it's still open for discussion as to what people would like to see.
Heck, I dunno, I'm just making it look purty.

I've been kinda out of it recently. What is going on here with this spaceworld thing? Is it just going to be a site with a starmap with various regions linking to peoples space sites? Or is going to be more homogeneous than that? What do I do to get (...) (26 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
