Americamamushi's Ruleset: Revived...

americamamushiPosted on 01/03/06 at 05:55:52

When I stopped writing my ruleset at month 6 I wasn't happy with how it had turned out.  Maybe I'm just my own worst critic.  Anyway I always said that anyone who wanted to was welcome to continue it themselves from where I left off.  Board member Justin Hipple decided to revive the ruleset and has already written an additional 7 months, bringing the ruleset's length past the year mark.  Anyone interested can find the complete rules at http://americamamushi-tnm.tripod.com/am_rules.html

This is some of the best news I've heard all year! I've come to the conclusion that the reason my AWC circuit died was because I couldn't handle the fact that I had NO outline whatsoever to follow, having used up all your rules. And in turn, I started to wein from the program, and, also, this board. But, I think it's going to be about time for a return, I miss checking the boards everyday.

Anyway, I'm glad the rules are being continued and hopefully my AWC will be revived. Thanks!
