One of the ideas I want to use is one me and a friend worked out. Would we be able to do the competition together?

Count me in! I can't wait to start this! (I only have 2 initial ideas, but this will hopefully get the creative juices flowing).

I'm loving the sound of this

Nothing quite spells out fun like letting your imagination run loose on paper.

I'd love to participate in something like this, though it really depends on my time constraints.

one question: Is there any specific format that you'd recommend for the papers? As in, just writing a 2 page essay, or perhaps making separate sections for describing different aspects of the game, or even a bullet pointed outline?

I understand that we have the choice on how we present it, but is there one way that would make it easier to read/more presentable than the other?

Personally, looking at a 2 page block of text can be intimidating, but seeing something set up in multiple sections with one or two sentences each makes the reading seem a lot easier.

I think this sounds like a hell of a lot of fun, however, I give myself maybe a 5% chance of sticking with it to the end. Count on me for the first couple of weeks anyway, or at least until spring break :p

I have absolutely no ideas yet, but I'm waiting for the rules for week 1 so I can get some ideas! This should be awesome!
