Project ZEAL sounds very interesting.

If there's any way I could help reviving it, let me know.

Same here. I haven't exactly contributed since I joined this site, and I'd sure as hell love to help with this.

I am glad to see this support. However, I suppose two things need to be done first:

1.) I need to start a formal thread about managing fan participation. I'm worried that an old nemesis of fan communities is going to show up -- that is, needless fragmentation of talents. Fans overextend themselves on 50 million different projects, have time for only one, and nothing ends up getting done.

2.) We'll have to see how many authors are interested.

I'd be happy to revisit ZEAL.

There seems to be quite a few RPers here- and Role Play and fanfiction aren't exactly worlds apart, are they?

I suppose they arent to far apart in terms of what they basically are, this sounds like something I could get into, but until my mother gets over herself and sets up the internet at our house I can only access the compendium during school days, and only two, maybe three periods a day :(

I know I asked this before, but I better ask it again before getting it wrong:

What is a fanservice? The only thing I remember is this "no-pr0n-cuz-no-penetration" stuff...and I think that's not what is meant here...at least I hope...

This would be fanservice for the majority of (heterosexual) males? What about the others? I think the Compendium should not only cover them, because, like, we don't cover the wants of the majority of SE/RPG fans by having a ChronoCompendium, but we still go on. Like a hidden meaning or something.

I still think we should do a new Project ZEAL...either with an entirely new story concept, or starting, roughly, from scratch with mostly new authors (possibly some kind of 2.0 that takes out characters of authors who are no longer Compendium regulars)...idk...The idea of a "Compendium community made fanfic" still excites me as much as Compendium community ROM hacks...and I figure they have just as much chance of seeing the light of day if done right and organized well enough.
