I don't think we're at permission slip point yet... but I know the feeling
of just wanting to jump in and get started!!!

Subject: War??
*Crawls out of Lurkdom coffin*
Somehow, I must have missed that we are actually planning a War. I have only
played in the last one, and then not very well. But time and other RP has
honed my fangs a bit *laughs*
I would be very interested in playing! My last time was as a Knightie, so I
think I'd like to stay there. I await McLisa's post on proposals...

In the Forever Knight Website Archive, we've got a combined edition of the
two known versions of Merc Central (off the Wayback Machine and saved by
Desiree). It includes the following page,
http://www.foreverknight.org/MercCentral/guild.html, which has e-mail
addresses. No guarantee that any of them is current, of course!

Subject: Cousins on Facebook?
If we are indeed preparing for War, perhaps Cerberus could set up
something on Facebook. Not only do I spend an inordinate amount of
time there, I can access the site from my cellphone. This means I
could spend my lunch on War business instead of reading whichever
trashy novel I'm into at the moment. Even if War is still on the
distant horizon, Facebook could be a better place for Cousins to
congregate than Yahoogroups, you know?
Once I get something set up, I'll let the Cousins know (unless one of
the other heads of Cerberus beats me to it).
If any of the other heads of Cerberus are still out there, contact me
off-list, okay?

I got spam about my fkvoyage.com domain sent to my stequina@i.......

web site and the contact information for that domain is NOT

know that stequina@i....... address is connected to fkvoyage.com.

Thank you! The fkmerc yahoo group was still alive (if in a coma), as
well as the fkwarleaders group. But those pages will still come in
handy... Now have to update ang get ready for War!

Subject: Admin: OT posts require permission 1st
Just a reminder because we've had several OT posts lately that I know I wasn't
asked about. If Don was, then he forgot to cc: me on his reply, which is not
like Don.
Please remember that the rules require an authorization from either Don or me
for an OT post. We often do authorize them, and I generally ask the poster to
mention that.
The reason is that lists (not the FK lists) have been known to get out of hand
with OT traffic. We want to be sure this never happens here.
Thanks!

Subject: Now that there's the buzz of War...
I had my first FK dream in several years last night. I haven't had
this dream in probably over a decade so it was even updated to account
for those years. I found FK during it's second season but didn't find
the list until after the end of third season. I've been in three wars
but really only wrote a little in one war. I've played with the
Vaqueros (Vachon's faction) and with Nunkies Anonymous, but have
always been a true fan of Javier Vachon. As such, he's the focus of
my dream.
In my dream the show Forever Knight was really the first reality show
on television except none of us knew it was real. Perhaps that is why
it was so good, it was real. Although there are actors out there that
look like the main characters of the show, they were paid a ton of
money to perpetuate the myth that the show featured actors. The crew
people, directors and producers signed confidentiality agreements to
never divulge that there really were vampires on the show. This is
also the reason there were only three seasons. The vampires started
getting recognized in public and had to disappear. The found actors
who looked like them while they themselves left Toronto. That's why
third season is so different. They did bring in some new, younger
vamps to save on the special effects budget, and used the new actors
in the previous vamps roles for third season only.
However, Vachon has kept tabs on the vamps from FK and has written
several books, although none of them published, on the lives of the
them after the show. These books would result in Vachon's death if
they were ever discovered by the public so he only let's very few
people read them. Last night Vachon and I ended up in the hotel and
we met up to talk. He showed me the original three books he let me
read a few years after the show ended, the fourth book that I had read
in manuscript format, and the twelve books he has written since. He
still travels light and keeps all of his possessions with him,
including now a laptop and backup hard drive. He was going to let me
read the new volumes but there was a disturbance at the hotel and he
was too nervous to get them out of their hiding place. I did get to
leaf through the original four books that I had read before. That's
how I originally found out Nick Knight, LaCroix, etc... were real
people, not actors.
Anyhoo, it's pretty funny that a little talk about war on the list
would nudge my subconscious into dreaming about Vachon and the books
again.

We're getting full quotation of previous posts too, so I'm reposting the rules
for Forkni-l. Sprry about the weird spacing. My mailer sometimes does that and
I couldn't get everything exactly back to normal.

Wow, Rae, that's a fascinating dream! Thanks for sharing it.
I've been known to dream that the show either was back on the air or had been
continued after Last Knight. Generally I hate everything about the new version,
so I guess my subconscious has a case of sour grapes. :)

Facebook would be fine with me. I'm there, the Lisa McDavid in Indianapolis.
(There's another Lisa McDavid in Indiana but a different town.)
I don't think the rest of Cerberus is still here but can't be sure.

Thanks for trying, Chimel, but the permission slips don't start being collected,
by the warmistress/master, until the premise for the war, the wm, and the time
are settled. Don't worry, all, there will be a definite announcement, with
deadline and where to send. Several reminders, too.

Yeah... it's going to take a while to get this all together. Submitting
proposals for WM, sorting out timeframe, sorting out faction leaders &
availablity... time to gather permission slips, etc....
War isn't just a quick thing to start up. *grin*
