Yeah, bue even if it is possible we can do it anytime and we would need a good name. Anyone have idea how we could name it? Because all other stuff (twitter account, google account, codaset account) was created before we named the game and certain limitation of codaset - no way to create unassigned tickets, i.e. tickets had to be assigned to someone - we created virtual user named lovelyrpgcommunity, to select the community user for tickets that can be taken by someone - and all other account followed same naming pattern. And it remained like that till now - though the twitter account have url of only "lovelyrpg" because of character limit. Maybe we rename it to "lovelyrpg" only?

Website is live. Only an example, but it shows everything is working.

If we wish to do this, we need to act quickly. The longer we stick to a name, the harder it will be to change. Perhaps this can be decided by another poll, but I think this needs to be decided by a BDFL, for swiftness. I guess that would be you, giniu.

ok, so let's change the name of organization for shorter urls. writing lovelyrpgcommunity is twice as long as lovelyrpg. We will only stick to google account name (to not break buzz watched by people, etc). I will change the name and adjust docs.

[giniu]

never mind, we cannot change url or organization, only the display name so it's not worth it

Aw, too bad. I think I confused it with the names of repositories (which you can rename).

yeah, for repositories it is possible. But who knows - maybe in future they enable it then we will think about it again

For now, lets assume, that interested people will follow/watch the repository or bookmark it in browser

According to GitHub, they are flexible about stuff. Contact them and see if you can work something out.

I just decided to create "idea bucket". It is label in Issues on github. If you have idea you think development team should consider, write it down in new issue and assign "idea bucket" label to it. Developers will look into idea bucket and see if it fits current vision, if not - discussion will be started about how to adjust the idea to fit in. If multiple ideas will be present for same thing and they cannot be mixed, we will make poll as usually to pick one that will go in.

So if you have ideas about skills, graphics, story, gameplay, sound, whatever - come in and let us know! We do not promise we will use all ideas though, but no single idea will be rejected without a reason and prior discussion about how author can improve it.

Remember to make ticket and apply "idea bucket" label (the orange one). Of course you need to have github account, but it's free and very easy to get. You don't have to be developer or included in organization to create tickets so it sounds perfect for this use

will do - actually I asked to rename it for us (seen others do it) so DO NOT PUSH until we know if and when it will be renamed. Repo rename will be announced here so stay tuned!

Could I please get access to the Wave? It would be a lot easier to do webmastering if I knew more about what's going on at the moment.

well, we never had single meeting, because there was to few people. Main was just efficient enough - mail or PM. Anyway if you want, just send e-mail from gmail account you want to wave with to project email (lovelyrpgcommunity at gmail.com) and I will add you to contact list - I add all people from contact list to all waves so you will be automatically added there.
