Alright, for those judges present, and those players that have been here for a while and are willing to help... I'm looking to "clean house" of all the backed up proposals.
What this entails is going through one thread per day and examining it thoroughly based on it's value both mechanically and non-mechanically. The list is in the archivomatic thread. We will go from top to bottom, one per day. Three judge votes to approve something IN EXACTLY IT'S CURRENT FORM earn a proposal approval unless it get's vetoed. A veto consists of 3 votes against. There are 6 current judges, but I know some are not going to be able to handle 1 thread per day, so I'm willing to add two to three more to the list. If Thomas Hobbes, Gnomeworks, and Kahuna are willing, I'd like their help with this. The only thing I really want to add is that you can't vote for your own proposals. I expect that between this group and the current judges (me, Uriel, Knight Otu, Nimisgod, Pbartender, and Manzanita), we should see some pretty thorough examinations of content. If something is vetoed, then it needs to be reproposed. I may be willing to give an edited draft to a thread before it's day comes up if I feel like something is very close to finished, but needs specific changes.
The process will be pretty simple, starting tonight around midnight (central), I'll post in the archivomatic thread what's next. I'll examine the thread an hour or so before, and if I think it's tight but that it needs some specific changes, I'll also list the "revised proposal" at the end of the thread. I'm not always going to do that though, both because I don't want to change someone elses work, and because I don't want to have to put a grievous amount of revision onto something. Judges can also make minor proposed changes similarly, but I'd hope to see these early rather than late.
Once the thread is active, I'll wait 24 hours before going on to the next subject. The goal will be to go through the entire proposed list and seperate that which needs work from that which should become cannon for the setting. Simpe enough, eh? I hope this works this time.
