Well it is - or was, I suppose I should say. But I don't see any reason
why we can't expand from there. Why not concentrate somewhere small -
like the IC, and then work our way out? Or not, I don't care. As long
as we *do* something. All we need do is change the name (I like the
Cerilian Council tag you put forth), and start getting people writing
submissions for it. I've heard enough talk and lamentation about the
state of BR - *lets* *get* *to* *it*!

And, Craig, you don't owe me an apology or anything else! We gotta do
it for *ourselves*, not you, or me, or Ed or Carrie, or any one other
person. I say screw WotC and all those monkeys who work there - forget
them - they abandoned us, so why worry about what they think? Right?
IMHO, we should spend less time trying to impress those muckety mucks at
WotC and more time satisfying *our* desire for this milieu. If, in the
future, they care to get off their high horse and look our way, then we
can justifiably beam with pride at all the work we have done, and say:
"Look what we've done! And you guys said there was no interest ...
hah!"

Honestly, (IMHO again, of course) swamping them with a ton 'o snail mail
will impress them less than will them seeing many, many people *using*
the game system and working with it. I say show them the number of hits
we get at the website - show them the sheer volume of submissions we
(will) have there, and that ought to/will impress them more I would
think. If we are going to bust our butts keeping this campaign alive,
the work might as damn well be productive and useful to the people that
are going to benefit from it - *US*, you and me!!!! I can't use a
letter to WotC IMC, but I sure can use an adventure set in Aerenwe! As
long as we don't financially benefit from anything we do, they can't
touch us.

Thats what I think anyway. We've got the tools, just give me and the
other coordinators the submissions to complete the job!!!! (Hey - this
worked on the Amerikans for Churchill, why not a Canucklehead!) :D

Heh.

(Oh, and actually, since Simon left us, I don't know
where the BROCP site is ... ummm, Ian? Can you help us out here? I know
Morg as a link to it on his site ...)

Cheers,
