Can has handbook?

Sooo, with Callie working at the D.O.I for the City, she's working on making things efficient and useful, and otherwise more import friendly. I've actually been considering making a PDF handbook with general need-to-know stuff about the City, explaining the Porter, listing events that have happened since the Porter first showed up and what to expect and a Civilian's Guide to "How to handle Supervillains", "Superheros are your friends", and "What to do when..." Event situation advice to reduce damage, harm, and casualties. Mostly just for fun. I dunno, it could actually be useful too?

Is this a stupid idea? Is Brakish crazy? Should I shut up? XD

This is a great idea actually. Sounds kind of like a Quick Start guide to the comm?

Sounds good to me, I know I would've found that sort of thing useful when I was first looking around the comm ^^

It's good/fun! But rather than PDF, you could set it up like a game FAQ or the police post(s). That way it'd be easier to edit and if, for some reason (don't you dare) that you drop you could just copy it and textbox it for someone else to take over. You could also use it for IC comments and the like. :)

But yeah, it'd be neat! Especially if it was written ICly in her tone of voice. I also know that there are a few "dummy" things like this that characters will send their friends, like non-existent maps or bits of info in text form that... well, don't really exist but they've said they do.

I imagine most everyone would! And anyone who doesn't... well, they're just silly. As silly as LJ has been. :|

I love this idea! I'd be glad to help with police details and overall game history ('why is LA a smoking crater,' for example) OOCly or ICly.

This is an excellent idea! I love it!

Actually, if she asked, I'd think Tony would be totally all over funding this for the PR too if she wanted to make it ~*~super special~*~ or something!

Approved. Good idea. Do it. BUT ONLY IF YOU HAVE FUN DOING IT.
