This is to assist in planning, mostly. If you have actual suggestions about any of this, start a new thread or bring it up in an existing one. Beside your article, I'm listing its subject, not the actual title.

Edited the Above: Added Clinton, assuming that he's coming on board. Also, I added the Unaris piece that I totally forgot about. We never really got anyone excited about signing onto that and it was totally my idea in the first place, so I don't think I can just force it on others. Gary's been very patient, but he says that if we've moved beyond that, it's cool. So if we can find someone who's really excited to have a go at it, awesome. If not, maybe I'll write it up for another issue.

Hey, the thing on Unaris sounds interesting to me. I just have never played it, so I didn't feel I should comment in a more detailed fashion. The more the merrier, though.

More updates. With Clinton, John, and Piers jumping on board and Chris decided that he does have something to say (as if there was any doubt), I don't think we're going to have any problem getting enough content together for Vol 1. Still hoping that someone will jump on Unaris. Maybe if Smerf & I get done early and have some time on our hands...

I am all over Unaris stuff. It's a game that's just waiting to be seriously analyzed. I'll see if I can accelerate my schedule on Constraint.

Currently I'm immersed in co-developing a new rpg, developing a new card game , and crafting a Unaris supplement, but would gladly help out here if needed. An interesting slant on Unaris might be the differences in speed you get with the Unaris verses the typical chat, and the immersive quality that comes with.

This could also go a whole different route where, instead of focusing on Unaris, focus on how computers have affected rpgs in play and development in general. By this I mean, proliferation of ideas, connectivity and the sharing of ideas between designers, pdf impact on printed matter, etc., etc. Just some thoughts.
