Subject	[dq-announce] 2006 Rulebook delayed

This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understand this format, some or all of this message may not be legible. ------_=_NextPart_001_01C638ED.6CF3F12E Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" So, as everyone appears to trust my judgement, or not care, I'm going to delay the Rulebook until June. I'm not prepared to print up Rulebooks that might need changes for the Guild meeting, or run around after the meeting distributing them. The most significant practical downside of this is that the Subskill changes can't come into play until June. I will use the extra time to more thoroughly sort out inconsistencies and ambiguities, and also do some housekeeping (e.g. review what is in the index, organise a list of magics, play with some formats). I'll table a list of changes (needing sign-off at the meeting) over the weekend. Thank you to those who have contributed to the process, I'll be asking for some more reviewers/change-makers/proof-readers at the meeting. Cheers Errol -----Original Message----- From: dq-owner@dq.sf.org.nz [mailto:dq-owner@dq.sf.org.nz]On Behalf Of Errol Cavit Sent: Tuesday, 21 February 2006 09:29 To: dq@dq.sf.org.nz Subject: Re: [dq] Rulebook stuff needing vote If 15+ people who promise to turn up and vote to confirm say so, and no-one objects, I'll consider it. (Swapping out a page in 20-40 comb-bound copies would be tedious, but probably do-able with equipment in my office). On previous performance, this seems unlikely (but certainly not impossible) Cheers Errol -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Withy (DSL AK) [mailto:AndrewW@datacom.co.nz] Sent: Tuesday, 21 February 2006 09:02 To: dq@dq.sf.org.nz Subject: Re: [dq] Rulebook stuff needing vote Gievn these all appear to be minor clarifications, why don't we just say "If no one has any objections, these will be included in the rulebook", except maybe the weaponsmith formula tweak, where we did explicitly vote in a formula, even if it was wrong. This means most everything can be put in the rulebook now. If we change our minds in 6 months, we can always rough you up, as per your offer, and then get back to the game.
