Feel free to post any questions about the transition plan here. I will answer them as quickly as possible.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Apollyon, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

Are the various Faction IC Threads going to migrate over, or will new ones be made?

My goal is to get all of the FC material onto Intelser so that the transition doesn't result in the game's history being lost. I can't give a completely concrete answer yet on exactly how that will play out, because I need to verify that there are no copyright issues with transferring our fan fiction and game results from CBT.com. Hopefully I will have a much more detailed answer for you very soon.

Over there is some really olde stuff. There was no copyright problem back then, I dont see why there should be one now.

And I would like to get this stuff over here as well.

If Ash will grant me permission to transfer that content from his board, I intend to include it on intelser. I just discovered that particular little treasure trove myself a couple days ago, and haven't got a chance to secure permission yet.

OK - got an update. I've secured permission from Ash to import the classic FC '62 material that is archived on BTechUnits. I'm going to start carrying over material tonight, once I have enough for it to be meaningful I'll post more about the archival setup.

Will the one faction limitation on WiE players be lifted?

This is not 100% final yet, but WIE is almost certainly going to be redefined as an IS faction for turn 38.

RD will probably continue to count as both an IS and a Clan faction for the time being, but this will be periodically re-examind to ensure that players in that faction are not prevented from participating on the same level as other members.

Marlin asked for me to repost the (incomplete) (draft) WMD rules that were on CBT.com several months ago.

Please find them attached.

These are not the final version that will become game rules... just a draft that was used for several storyline-related nukings.

I have a plotline I'd like to initiate. Something to do with the Clans and the Blood. It occurs to me that I should probably talk to a GM about it. Who should I be speaking with?

Shall we transfer the IC threads by our own?

At least those Clans/factions that have players? Cuz if they are archived, I dont see them.

I'm still seeking permission from CGL to republish the contents of those threads. As soon as I get the green light they will be uploaded to the FC62 wiki.

All of the IC threads have been saved to my PC however, so a permanent copy does exist even if I can't repost them yet.

So, what's the word on what's changing on how the metafactions are handled?

Basically, instead of having a "caretaker" player, the constituent members of the metafaction will be responsible for getting the metafaction orders in each month.

That's not to say that they can't agree to keep going 'business as usual' with the same player as before beign responsible for the orders, but that will no longer count as a separate "faction membership" choice for that player.

I'll try to get something a little more detailed posted after work today.

Shoot me a PM with your proposal and we can discuss it. After reading your recent IC thread post, this should be interesting...  ;D

Not at all to cause waves, just wondering if we could get a posting of the latest rules all in one place for the 3062 game.  ;D
