Hi all
Not sure what I'd doing this weekend yet. But we're off back to UK in a little over a week, so may not be back for more than a month. Assume I'm not coming, then it can only be a good surprise if I do... but do we have a set location yet or is it still fluid?

Sorry for the vagueness - but that's our life! :(

Hope the games go well and my absence doesn't cause too much issue.
Mark

Message-ID: <b38c910af4108c12d51975d0ed80e548.squirrel@webmail.rpgreview.net>

Hi everyone,

I've been rolling over in my head over the past few days (OK, the past
couple of weeks) of the prospects of us putting our collective intellect
together and forming a game designer's cooperative.

A cooperative would simply provide a common publishing arm for various
ventures we might be interested in "putting out there", including
publications like RPG Review, Gulliver's Travels, Mimesis, etc.

Use of a cooperative would also mean that there's nobody trying to make a
profit out of it, although obviously income from sales to authors apply.

http://www.business.vic.gov.au/operating-a-business/how-to-start/business-structures/cooperative

What do people think?

All the best, Lev

Subject: [Churchofgaming] RPG Review Issue 19. The Apocalypse. Articles
	Wanted.
Message-ID: <437046abc1beb65a7aab0eeca8b823f4.squirrel@webmail.rpgreview.net>

RPG Review Issue 19. The Apocalypse. Articles Wanted.

We're just getting RPG Review issue 19 together and we need more articles.
The theme for this issue is "The Apocalypse", by which we mean any number
of end-time games, themes, settings, scenarios or reviews. It can be a
religious apocalypse, a zombie apocalypse, a nuclear apocalypse... you
know the score.

There are many fine games that have graced our shelves based on such
settings, or even more so, post-apocalyptic scenarios: Aftermath!, Gamma
World, Systems Failure, Traveller: TNE, Twilight 2000, Rapture!, Darwin's
World, Desolation, Waste World, Apocalypse World... all these and more.

So you if you have an article, a scenario, a setting, some theory,
designer's notes.. anything of the sort - please send an email through to
info at rpgreview.net and we'll talk some more.

A lot of people on this list are producing material anyway so having  
some organisation to help get stuff 'out there' would be welcome. We  
should talk about this more.

Lev,

Wonderful idea, would be a good motivating factor for me to write some more
material - would love to sit down and talk about this one.  I will do some
reading on the 'structure' side of things to familiarize myself with it.
 Assuming I can get away one sunday afternoon to come on down.

Cheers

Redmond

Good idea, but what would it do that putting things out individually wouldn't do?

OK, so, is your idea that people in the group would develop games together?

Of course, I'm not going to stop anyone if they want to go off on their
own :)

Mostly, I'm looking for like minds to look over what I have already  
done and help with getting it 'out there' rather than joining a  
development team for a new project.
I'm sure there's room for both.
More concretely are we talking about regular realspace meetings?
