So, I was digging in my old posts (hey, people get bored sometimes), and found this: It's from this thread, which is about reading RoW chapter by chapter (IIRC), instead of releasing it and letting people binge read it. Now, it appears that Brandon wrote those books for such a thing to happen - though not necessarily online. And maybe someone thought of it and already posted a topic somewhere else. I myself am not sure that this is the right place for it. If you know of such a thread - let me know. But if you don't, and you happen to not be in a book club that's interested in reading those novels, and you'd like to join one - well, you're invited. If this won't interest enough people I'll let the idea die. I already have a couple of failed attempts at recruiting people for things I want to do - it'll be nothing new if this one joins them. If I'd have started a kickstarter I wouldn't have gotten anywhere near Brandon's initial target, not to speak about where he's at currently. Please don't let the previous paragraph shame you into joining this or any other project I'm working on, and please be aware of the fact that both this paragraph and the one you're reading right now are mere psychological tricks to make you join. Thank you for reading that far, and for putting up with my cheap psychological tricks! (Assuming you put up with them...) Good [insert here the portion of the day you're currently at]!

So, I recently found this awesome game on Kickstarter. It's called TUG. It's similar in concept to Minecraft of Terraria, but it's designed by scientists and professors in such a way that by playing the game, you directly effect how the game is designed. How do major events progress? Which ancient cultures are discovered? What is the economy like? What is the level of magic, or technology, or science? What new items, spells, skills, or world elements will the developers implement next? You, as the player, get to decide! Also, the art is gorgeous: There are still a couple days left in the Kickstarter if you want to buy in and get Alpha/Beta access, or you could wait a while, see what all of this is really about, and get the game when it releases in January 2015. Or you could not buy it at all if you don't want to. It's up to you. Since private servers are a thing you can do in TUG, I'm thinking of starting one for Sharders when the option goes live, if enough people are interested. So what do you say? Who wants to explore new worlds together?
