Well, another thing that has to be taken into account is how it would be se=
t up. Would it be one (for lack of a better word) huge website, which was u=
nder the care and maintenance of one or more pre-determined persons, or wou=
ld it be a main site with links to a site for each game, and each game site=
 would be managed by the GM.


If we do decide to do this, there are a lot of things that need to be figur=
ed out, and I think it would, in the end, come down to be decided by those =
who would be involved. From what I've seen in response to this area, and fr=
om recent-past postings, we'd have...um...something in the area of 15-20 pe=
ople involved in this; not much compared to former echo standards as I hear=
 they once were.
