ZGG's 2006 Call for Blackmoor Writers

[Havard]

I am a bit sceptic whether the summary you made is all too legit :wink: , but I am happy if we're getting somewhere.

????

I think the big thing you guys should think about is the procedurals;

"You guys"? I thought this was a project for all of us. There is no you and us here.

which means, would other people accept to have their content edited, or minor and major ideas rejected? - I for my part can firmly say, 'no'.

Author has final say over his/her own material. (Editors can suggest changes, but they need not be implemented).
I can decide not to host material on the Archives, but I will not do so based on whether it confirms to a certain set of canonical standards. Expect material to be rejected only if there are legal problems or ethical reasons not to host it. With the active posters in this forum, I seriously doubt I would have any reason to even consider not hosting it.

Ultimately though, the Archives is my website and I have the final say.

That's why I suggested a fiction anthology first; that way, we don't need to care if we have all too much common ground.

If you write fiction I will host it. Perhaps others will also be interested in contributing to that. Maybe you could start a separate thread about it?

An adventure collection would be nice, too, but would the readers not get confused between our several takes on the setting?

I assume you are talking about the Crossroads concept then since Journey really avoids this problem. For Crossroads, I like RobJN's concept of separate continuities. But to be honest, perhaps a paragraph at the beginning of a collection about how each author may or may not have his own take on the setting should be sufficient IMO. Although if each continuity had its own logo, like Thorn's Blackmoor that would be kinda neat.
