  1. I think rules for it this time around would be an absolute necessity. It was far too open to abuse and confusion before. But another thing I personally think is vital is a Game Master, one person - a mature person with a reasonable grip on reality and not undergoing a power trip - that can quickly and efficiently sort out conflicts or problems, and do so without antagonising anyone (hopefully). With no one running the ship, it's far too easy to go careening onto the rocks while everyone is below decks playing footsies. Oh, and having basic storylines that are likely to appeal to the broader public rather than a small minority.
  2. http://original.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=600097115 This is just a posting of an IM conversation. Surely this qualifies as an "un" story. lol
  3. I can't help you with the San Francisco stuff, but as far as the architectural stuff is concerned, I take it you mean architectural terms and whatnot? If so then I have some links for you that you may perhaps find useful: http://www.archiseek.com/guides/glossary/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_glossary http://www.uen.org/Centennial/08BuildingsA.html
  4. They sound like the sort of website which is great if things go well, but customer service is virtually non-existent if you actually need help from anyone. I just had a look at that website, and I clicked on the "J-list FAQ" link up the top left hand corner. That may have info for you if you haven't already looked at it. They do have a PO box you could mail to. Also, they say you can leave a voice mail or fax at a certain number, so it might not just be a fax number. I hope you have some luck with them soon.
  5. Hmm I can see the problem. There's probably two ways you could go in. Either be much more vague about what she's wearing (as in, "her outfit consisted of little more than strips of leather strategically covering her modesty" type of thing) or be much more detailed, so the reader understands exactly what she's wearing. The problem with being that detailed is that it can serve as a bit of a road hump in your story, especially if it's not really all that important what she's wearing. As I alluded to before, you may find an opportunity a bit later in your story to describe her outfit a little more - perhaps as she removes an item, or it comes untied, etc. That's one problem with writing for a fantasy genre, it can make it hard to describe things without using modern day comparisons. I've ran into that problem myself. Anyway, good luck!
