Was in college then... no TV. Playboy rated UF number 1 for ** CENSORED ** and fun in the sun while I was there. Spent all my time looking for it. Never found it. Should have studied or watched The Prisoner. At least I watched Star Trek (TOS).

Star Trek could be watched on the TV in the diner at 4pm. The Prisoner could not.

I am not a number, I am a free man!

Well I only take orders from Sheik Yer Bouti :lol:

PS Last time I was in the village was around the late 80's. Was a bit run down back then.

I am very fortunate to take orders only from Mrs. Panzergator and my grandson.

Cama, as a moderator, perhaps you could set up an Imagi-nation sticky thread. A single thread would make developments easier to follow and everyone would know where to go, what's going on. Each post could begin with the particular imagination being addressed, and then go from there. An intro para could lay down the rules, ie. Ya gotta actually own the forces you claim to use, specify in capital letters the name of your nation at the beginning of each post, and any other rules you might feel necessary, like no sci-fi nations or weapons, etc.

What say you?

It was only a suggestion to make things easier to follow, not a criticism on imagi-nations.

Perhaps allow 2" weeks for any objection instead. Easier, more direct. I point out that a sticky thread would also be easier to find, Folks.

I like the idea and it'd be easier than making a new forum section just for Imagi-nations. It'll also be easier to follow the comments in a single thread rather than spread out over so many. Much as I hate agreeing with anything coming out of the UIN, PROG votes yes. :lol:

We can also create a UIN web page separate from the GHQ site. There used to be a UIN website at one point but it disappeared some time ago.

I'm not a professional web designer or anything, but my ROD page turned out pretty OK. I can create a UIN page if we decide we want one.

I prefer to have separate UIN threads. Advantage is that a person can refer to the 1 or 2 previous posts if not sure where/how story development has progressed. The NDA, Moose Alliance will ultimately move to other pages on the site. Other threads already have. As a storyline moves, may have a pause ( illness, out of town, work,etc.), so the person writing the post may or may not want to refer back, but others reading that story line may not have the story in mind, it may affect other storylines in the mind of the reader.
.
But if you do wish to have consolidation of stories, go to U.I.N. to post. Or start ‘I.N.’ or similar to write. As you look at all the threads, do you skip some based upon topic? I do skip some that I’m not interested in and I skip others at times for another day.
