Subject: ADMIN: The return of the "This Week In Review"...
Keywords: At least _temporary_ return, at least in _my_ hands

ADMIN:

Due to popular demand (yes, 1 e-mail and 1 post _is_ popular demand in my
book), the ADMIN post for "This Week In Review" is destined to return to
my hands.

For those who don't remember -- or never saw -- it, This Week In Review is,
well, pretty self-explanatory.  But to run smoothly, it needs _your_ help.

First, there will (possibly) be a section on newcomers (each week) to the
group, a list of who is currently positioned in the Dragon's Inn, and an
overview of general happenings (since you by no means need to be in a
thread to participate in a.p.d-i).  Note however that due to a sometimes
slow (and other times misfiring) site, I'd appreciate it if you (the people)
would notify me of anything you feel fits in there, to keep things updated.

Second will be a section on threads, and for that I'd like information in
the form below, from everyone "running" a thread.

Form:
[Thread abbr/title]  Thread name, if any
Contact person/people:
People/Chars involved (optional):
Brief overview/summary/etc:

Example:
[BBD]
Contact person: Mike Sander, 344lwkc@cmuvm.csv.cmich.edu
Chars Involved: BBD, Lancos (Mike Sander); Kaalzic, Myrnien (Dan Peters);
                Tarkyn (Barry Prismall); Gutt Man (The Dreamer)
Brief Overview: Not having caused enough havoc the first time, the BBD
                thread has restarted.  Hooks up slightly (and should do so
                in more depth, later) with the [DS] thread.

Two notes: 1) For chars, some included names, some addresses, some both or
neither.  Whatever you wish to do is fine with me.  2) Don't sweat the
details/format: anything you want to put in there, I should include.  Just
remember this is general info, not your summary.

Speaking of which, the third (and final) section will be summaries.  For
the first week, go as far back as you dare, though generally it'll be what
happened in (you guessed it) that week, with some possible What Has Happened
Before{tm} material.  Before, I did mini-reviews for threads that didn't
summit anything, but that might not be the case this time around.  So I'd
appreciate being sent things regularly -- the more (often) I get stuff, the
higher chance this'll keep coming.

'When should this start?" I hear you ask.  I plan on posting it every
Monday, sometime early afternoon.  Not _this_ Monday though, as I'm sure
Thanksgiving break would make the deadline too close for a lot of you.
But in general, it'll give you the weekend to work on your submissions.

Anyway, I've had my say, now it's your turn.
