Alright guys - discussion extension added, looks good to go. I started off with an initial post.

Current discussion: Humanity
http://www.casog.com/mediawiki/index.php/Talk:Humanity

If you want to get in on this, just follow the steps in the initial post of this thread!

[Taricus]

Were going to need a rough timeline.

[tNok85]

Were going to need a rough timeline.

Agreed.

[tNok85]

Added a races page - if you're working on a race, please add it here!

Also, please run your stuff through a spell check at the very least. So far no problems, but it would be nice to keep it professional looking without requiring a ton of housekeeping.

Very interesting project, and I myself am obsessed about space operas.

I'll see what I can do about a logo, and I'm offering my aid in the wiki administration.

Timeline discussion

It might be a good idea to post this on TVTropes or somewhere too, tNok85.

[Digital Hellhound]

Agh. Alright, let's see what I threw up in there.

All details are subject to change as we work out the setting.

Great!

I think we should get some serious content in before we add anything to TVTropes though. At least some races/planets/systems established, and a little history. At the very least - the architecture. Timeline and what not.

Before I add you as contrib - I assume you're LNCP on the wiki?

Yeah that's me. Unless there's two or something.

Sidenote - you need to add the following to your discussion pages to make a forum-styled thread:

Code: [Select]

<discussion>
  characters_max=0
  incremental=0
</discussion>

LNCP, added you to contribs.

[Virex]

I've singed up for the project as well. I'll mainly be concerning myself with rendering planets, such as this one, which I just made.

[tNok85]

Made a couple posts so we can get some history set down, get the timeline moving, and let people work on their races/stories with a little more clarity.

=================================

Extinction event:
http://www.casog.com/mediawiki/index.php/Talk:Extinction_event

Alright, well we need to decide. This is a group project so no one idea can alter the course of the entire galaxy without most people being alright with it.

Basic options:
A) No extinction event
B) Human-only near-extinction event
C) Galaxy wide near-extinction event, most (if not all) races set back a considerable amount

Reply to this post with what you'd like to see... or any other ideas.

Humanity:

So far this seems to be a popular idea from Virex:

One interesting option would be to have humans as some sort of near-mythical outsiders who live far away from where most of the story happens. They used to be a mayor force in the universe, but at some point long ago they were nearly wiped out and as a result they've limited themselves to some far-off planets which they vigorously guard against outside influences. Whatever broke them up have also made then very xenofobic. This, coupled with the fact that once they were omnipresent and very advanced has made them the center of all kinds of stories and myths with the other races.

I like the discussion pages - but it seems a pain to track. Would setting up a simple PHPBB of some sort be worth doing instead, and discussions link to relevant threads? I can get that going pretty quickly if you guys want that. (I could also link Wiki registrations to the forums so you'd keep the same ID)
