RigaMortus2 said:So as a happy medium, they came up with the concept of "consortium points". What that meant was, anytime you allowed another writer to use a character you created in a story, you got 1 consortium point. The more consortium points you get, the more $$$ you would makeThe writer that wanted to use your character would basically tell you what he had planned for the character, and you could either veto it or not (and if you don't, you'd make more money). So if you really did not like the ideas another writer had for your character (such as killing them off), you don't let them do it.
That's a nice system to promote sharing between writers through incentives, but also giving creators a veto power.
*sigh* One day I will make it to more cons.....
