Subject: SRTCG Ambassadors: Prime Runners Association

OK, folks, here's the fastball:

I am presently talking with FASA about the possibility of setting up an
Ambassador-style program for Shadowrun: the Trading Card Game, called
the Prime Runners Association. (The name might get changed.) These are
the the guys on the edge, teaching new players the game and getting as
many people involved in SRTCG as possible.

There is a strong chance Prime Runners (or whatever we end up being
called - I'm open to suggestions) will receive Free Stuff from FASA, as
I'm willing to supply many goodies out of my own pocket, and can
silver-tongue FASA into offering promos, playtesting cards (maybe) and
other possible goodies.

What I'm looking for (besides a better name) are what *you* feel your
rights and responsibilities are -- obviously, there's a give-and-take at
play. Experiences from other Ambassador programs - what they did right,
what they did wrong - is greatly appreciated, but I'm mostly interested
in what's going to attract your attention.

The Prime Runners Association may also tie into ideas I have for a
tournament system, details forthcoming.


- Matt
