Talk:I-War Ed/@comment-2047157-20110926235319

Announcement:I can't stand this story remaining this way, yet it is still not the time to resume writing it. I'm likely to get back to this unique fic of mine after You See Ed is done. Until then I'm going to rewrite I-War Ed, because the plot I had originaly thought simply would have been absurd. Not to mention that the two chapters so far are to take place well into the fic. I wanted the first three chapters to introduce the characters and whatnot, then go back to before, during and after the "event" for backstory. When I-War Ed is back up in running, it will be in chronological order. The two so far obviously take place one month after the event.

Which brings me to the characters, as stated in the summary, "Ten individuals help decide the fate of the Batatas System." So far the Eds, Kevin and Jonny have been confirmed. However, I have been thinking, I intended the ten characters to be the descendants of the cul-de-sac kids. Then I thought, "Say, Jspy hosted a OC contest for his fic, why can't I? I could use some characters besides the descendants."

I'l answer my own question, The fanbase for a 2000 cult hit in 2011 is practically nonexistent. Therefore, if nobody knows the fiction, how can they make OCs? Fortunately, I've encountered a still functioning site for the game, which contains starmaps, ship information etc. I think that with access to these resources, coupled with a little tinkering by myself for inconsistencies. I could make the OC submission thing work.

So my fan(s), should I do it? If I do, I'm going to do it right away, and I want to remind everyone that it will be quite some time before I get back to I-War Ed. Therefore, it would be quite some time before said OCs would see action.
