[QUOTE="Eosin the Red, post: 481933, member: 168"] I have an idea - Have a contest to design a world within the pages of the magazine. (I know, this one seems familiar). No, really. Have or select someone and let them loose into the world of RPG design. They would write articles about the world they are designing. They would have companion articles about the issues that have cropped up while trying to design it. The first section would be similar to DungeonCraft, while the second gets into things like discussions with artists and negotiating prices. They should be required to do the leg work for every step of development (pricing paper, distribution, ect). The mag can have a set cost for development and maximum time frame in which the gamer has to completly flesh out his world. The writer would recieve standard rates and Goodman games reserves the rights to publish. We could have some good spirited fun here at ENworld in the form of a pool to see if it will actually get done :D Am I crazy? It seems cool to me. I would love to read about some neophytes discovery of all the real issues in publishing. [/QUOTE]
