@stargazer Of course we can work together! All you have to do is reach out and ask! Shoot me an email (I believe you have it) or use the Contact page above. Things are already rolling, but the whole idea behind NMP is to be as inclusive as possible.. community driven game design is the idea. We are planning on going live July 6th with content, the site might be fully operational as earlier as the 1st though.

I am wishing you guys the best of luck! That sounds like an awesome idea and perhaps we can work together sometime in the future (a man is still allowed to dream, isn't he?).

By the way, when is the NMP website going live?

Well, I've no idea as to if I could take part (my ideas and work tends to be pretty self-sufficent) but I'll definitely try to keep an eye on it.

Would this sort of stuff be what you're referring to in regards to point 3?

i want to add that our vision is one where NEW products evolve and are shaped by literally dozens of authors instead of one.

Who knows... it may not work; but I love the idea and I want to explore where it takes us.

I would be less than honest if I didn't say that our ideas are evolving; but there's one thing that is core to our model: community input and involvement in the process. Content Developers are not exclusively "in house"... they are anyone who joins NMP and participates in the forums, blog, etc. From this pool of talent, we are looking to draw from three resources 1) content developers who sign a contract with us and want to participate in profit sharing; 2) members of the NMP community who post in the forums and help provide feedback and content (at our discretion); and 3) the larger blogger community who we will encourage to post and write content that would be able to be directly plugged into any project we are developing (although the content would be on their own blog). Again, these ideas are evolving - but that's the basic idea.

It's interesting, but at the same time I'm not sur...

It's interesting, but at the same time I'm not sure I quite understand the whole idea. At least to the degree that it involves anyone outside the group of you three. There's oblique references to wanting other people involved, but at the same time it sounds like it's being done in-house.

That may just mean some revision is necessary.

2009-06-12T14:27:40.596-04:00

The idea of producing system independent content is a good one... for example, a lot of 3rd edition GURPS material is made up of just plain good reference books. Their 4th edition has books that are a lot more "crunchy", but some of them--like Fantasy and Space--could stand as treatises on elements of the genres.

thanks for the support everyone! We are shooting for a live date of July 1st on NMP... I'll keep you posted.

Oh, and we are on Twitter now too

Interesting idea. Not sure I have the time to spare to help out (School, work, and convention planning), but I can't wait to hear more about it as time goes on.
