I'm working on the website today, particularly on the Starships and Mecha section. If you know an approved article that needs adding, let me know.

Currently, I'm adding the Naoranai (once I figure out a better name :P), the CFWEP Package, and the Tripster and Egress.
 
Updating some sections in the Star Army of Yamatai organisation section could be an idea.

Additionally, maybe you could finally make that updated profile for Yui (which you've still haven't gone around to doing) as well as add info on some other SARP characters like Irim, Eikan, etc...

The History of the Yamataian Star Empire is still lacking it's YE 29 entry. YE 28 is no longer the current year.

This ought to keep you busy ~_^

Fixed this.
 
CFWEP, Tripster, and Egress added to the site. Currently working on the Mindy 1F.
 
Just who is that girl that keeps popping out in some places, namely after someone submits a post?

Additonally, I'll stress again on how point 3.3 and 7 of the Star Army's organisation description ought to be filled in/clarified up. That would really be handy info to have around.
 
I know everyone is obsessed with Yamatai and everything, but I think a good improvement might be to give Nepleslia a few pages in the orginizations list.

Not asking for a lot, maybe a page for the Nepleslian government with a short history and discription. Then maybe a page for the Star Army of Nepleslia, and maybe a fleet description to go with that.
 
Not really obsessed. More like it's my impression that Wes has an easier time updating Yamataian-related stuff. I've been in the role of content coordinator for a setting and I sort of know that it's always easier to update the stuff you invest yourself more in than the other things you keep more to the side.

Besides, Neplesia is headed by other GMs right now. Wes might actually not have all the pieces required to settle Nepleslian bits to be edited - he'd probably need to make a thinking tank-group and 'dot every i' then so to update things concurrently to the current plots.

One thing I believe would be really good though would be an update of the Geshrin, Yamataian and Nepleslian races, especially in their Playing a... section.

The Geshrin's section is lamentably small, the Yamataian's section explains more the reason for their existence than their actual situation in the roleplaying world (it does confirm what I've been telling Wes though - Yamataians weren't supposed to have anti-gravity control).

The Nepleslian description is actualy pretty good compared to some others. It includes notes on the culture, the lifestyle and some history bits. I think it's especially important for the racial profiles to present the race, show how that race typically lives, give the player insight on where he'd be coming from and such. Some more fleshing out is still in order, but they already have decent content.

The Nekovalkyrjas, by way of the NH-29 update, had a big update evenj though that's still in Beta version, but the Geshrins, Neplesians and Yamataian are the other three most used races in the SARP - they ought to have sizeable content too. That said though, upgrading all that stuff is a chore, which is why it's better for Wes, I think, to take it bits at a time.
 
With permission, I could write up a general idea of where I was going with Nepleslia.

Sorry for the absence. I've been preparing for interviews and a move to another country.

Go for it!
 
Great Tom I'd love to see that stuff finaly on the site! And Where are you moving? (if you don't mind me asking of course)

Wes do you still have some of the pages that are referenced in the ccg for races? Because some of them give a 404 error.
 
Well, I'm currently trying to land one of those teaching jobs in Japan for a year or two. I have a series of interviews beginning next week.
 
Are you a follower of the infamous Azrael in the JET program?
 
Not the Jet programme, but an evil language school like Nova, Geos, Aeon, ECC, etc.

What makes this particularly fun is that I'm going to try to go with a friend. Makes the culture shock a little less extreme.

I'm doing this to make money, become aware of the world and to put it on a resume for law school / graduate school. :)
