CWS 3.1 Cliff's Notes Version (maybe...)
As I read the blurbs that Rick starts the additions to the CWS with, it occurs to me that he is sort of summing up things that are going on in the story and commenting on them.
I must say I find that enjoyable, Rick.
However, I feel that the story could be served very well (and ease Rick's daunting work load) if a Summary of the additions was made. This would serve 2 purposes:
As to the first point, I understand that it could be seen that if there is a cliff's notes version there would be no incentive to read the actual story. Well, the way it would be set up readers of THIS thread would be STRONGLY encouraged to read the actual thread for more info and better character development. This will mostly be a story skeleton; breif summaries of what went on in the story, on a post by post basis. Also, I plan on formating the tread in the same way Rick is, and start with the first addition, then add more. (so I don't give away story elements before they are posted.)
Now is the time to shoot my idea down if you wish (why I put the "maybe" in the subject line) or offer some input/changes that you might think of.
I hope this gets off the ground and allows everyone to enjoy the CWS more thouraly.

- It would allow whole additions to be added with out fear of over whelming readers, and
- It will serve as a nice, tidy refferance for the writers so that they dont need to go skimming thorugh literaly HUNDEREDS of pages of text looking for one little factoid.
