[War_ooc] John gets to thinking.

[John Penta]

It's a slow Saturday morning, I have nothing to do, not even anything for
WAR, so I've gotten to thinking.

Oh, stop hiding.

Thrown out ideas:

WAR FAQ - the more I think about it, the more I think WAR is best explained
by watching posts come in, the WR go out, etc. Put more succinctly, I'm not
sure how to go about writing such a FAQ. However, I mention it in case
someone wants to take a crack at writing such a thing.

Next up, ideas I'm considering:

The WR. Bluntly, do we even need a World Report? If we do, how should it be
structured? Are there any ways in which we can automate the process (in my
dreams only, I know)?

Activity requirements - I'm increasingly in favor of this, but it's a
decision I want to leave up to you. Should WAR have a formal activity
requirement?

If we do, I doubt I would enforce it as a hard requirement - more of a
"reach this point or be nagged", with only people turning in nothing
becoming eligible for removal.

Post counts - One thing I'm definitely thinking of borrowing from other sims
is posting a weekly or biweekly post count to the OOC list. People, I've
found, are naturally competitive, and want to reach the top of that list.
Keep in mind though that only public posts would count. Secret Actions would
not.

Is there anything else that comes to people's minds?

One brief thing: Even if you have no plans, no chance of playing a country
yet...Your opinions, your help on the OOC side of this endeavor would still
be welcome.
