Well, another thing that has to be taken into account is how it would be set up. Would it be one (for lack of a better word) huge website, which was under the care and maintenance of one or more pre-determined persons, or would 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 figured 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 from recent-past postings, we'd have...um...something in the area of 15-20 people involved in this; not much compared to former echo standards as I hear they once were.
