Personal reply made to Mike & Jill.. I really don't want a zillion people
on my players' mailing list.

This DID, however, strike up an idea in my brain. How many people think
they'd benefit from a "plotline" mailing list? The purpose would be to
provide a forum where GM's could post information about their current
campaigns and recent runs, and generally fill each other in on the states
of their game worlds. This would: A.) provide folks with adventure ideas
when they're pressed to come up with a good run; B.) create a sort of
"world continuity" where the events in one GM's game world could be affected
by runs in another's; and C.) give GM's a sense of perspective in how other
people run their games. Perhaps we'd even learn something by it. >8->

Does anyone like this idea? If there's even a few positive responses, I
think it should be set up.. I _think_ I can arrange for this list to run
off the list server I use, if nobody else volunteers, but the machine's not
that terrific (an overloaded Sun IPX) so if somebody else wants to set up the
list, please speak up!


Blessings,

I also would be interested in a GM type list.

I am interested in the plot line posts. I am new to SR, and I enjoy it
immensely. I will be GMing when the gang gets together to play. I can
use any and all help.
