We SEEM to be staying within Tom’s stated requirements for fan projects (viewtopic.php?f=26&t=862#p36750), so far as I can ascertain, but I just wanted to make absolutely sure we were okay to write and perform this?
I mean, it’s a fan project so it’s not like it’s canon anyway, and also, the overall story doesn’t really change any of your characters much (I think the only thing Mister a is actually going to learn from the whole experience is that he should clean his keyboard, that Instantiations can’t be reintegrated at Christmas, and that Goose is traditional... but it seems only right to ask, since we’d be playing with your character.

CORRECTION. TURKEY.

If it's going to be canon, you will need us to look it over. Where's all the information located? I know there are many threads.

I believe (though I'm not heavily involved in its creation) that it is firmly a fan work.
There's a link in the main thread to a dedicated chatroom for discussing it live. A lot of stuff hasn't been decided yet, and I'm not sure that there is currently a place to easily see all the decisions that have been made (the discussions have been kind of muddled and confusing from my point of view) but the big stuff is all at least linked from the thread.

It's perfectly safe to ask me anything. All answers will come in the form of "ARGH I AM SLEEP DEPRIVED AND YOUR QUESTION WAS ANSWERED THREE DAYS AGO BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE INTERNET ACCESS DUE TO WORK" but that's not, like, lethal or anything.

For the word-putty-in parts, the answer is "oh my god I have been at work for twenty-two hours straight someone please shoot me, and, oh, by the way, slight delay because impending coma".

Yeah I think I have slowly come to the realisation that this is pretty much the ENTIRE POINT of me in this thing.I like BlackWolfe sane and not comatosed and everything. I'll message him everything he needs to know and then he can attack ME in his sleep deprived madness, thus sparing all your lives.
Don't say I never do anything nice for you guys.

Steel collapses under its own weight at 5 miles. Dryu's diagram might be about to, as well.

Does that mean that our model is overly complicated?

The more accurate the map, the more it resembles the territory. The most accurate map possible would be the territory, and thus would be perfectly accurate and perfectly useless. The tale is the map that is the territory.
